I am curious, so I just downloaded the above book. I am not always convinced by channelling and found that a fair number of channellers seem to "channel" their own confabulation. I have been disappointed by books which attracted a massive readership. The authenticity often becomes clear to me when getting to a certain stage of the work after making the inner connection to the author. I still think attaining full lucidity during OBEs is the best way to tap into areas of consciousness yourself, first-hand, and everything that is said, my own work included, should be tested via experience. I have noticed when new ideas surface, such as the multiverse etc, a number of ideas are quickly attached to it which have no basis in experiential reality. A number of claims made in this manner I tried to test via OBEs but failed to find conformation of what was claimed. Fantasy has its own level of reality based on imagination, but we shall see.
Reincarnation, Past lives, parallel universes, infinite universes, Akashic Records are spiritually 101 really.
I don't think there is much debate on this, all the main channelled texts agree on all the basics.
I would be interested to know which books you've been disappointed by that have attracted a mass readership?
As all the key channelled works I've read all pretty much agree with each other.
For example like " The true nature of Personal Reality" by Seth / Jane Roberts.
What is boils down to as explained by Seth and others ( Bashar, Kryon et al )
Is BELIEF.
Your reality is extremely personal - if you don't believe in, say, past lives, you aren't going to be given evidence.
Whether you are in your physical body or not!!!
It would be fantastic to know what claims you tried to test via OBE. What experiments did you try? To find out what ?
And, naturally your personal true belief of them!
Ultimately though, the first step is to achieve an OBE for people really.
Once you've proven yourself that you aren't your physical body that you can indeed live outside of your physical body - then your beliefs change and you are more open to the greater truths.
For example a lot of comments here don't understand you have to have enough belief and open mind to at least try an OBE. Nobody or nothing is EVER going to walk up to you and prove it.
The only way is through personal experience, there will never be a mass proof.
As for example, your true concious self does not exist in this physical dimension, so cutting up a brain will never ever reveal your soul.
In the same way, there are infinite realities. You don't notice unless you really look.
But the real truth is most people don't understand string theory and quantum physics to even accept that - even through the maths is perfect and plenty of experimental evidence already exists to prove parallel worlds.
In the same way, it took over 250 years for people to accept the earth went around the sun, and the sun was just another star.
People got burnt at the stake alive for saying such things!
Even though the hard experimental evidence was in science journals all those 250 years!!!
See? It's your pesonal belief that creates your reality.
Your reality is truly what you believe reality is - that is a very neat trick God has pulled off you've got to admit !!!
People just need to put some beliefs aside and just try an OBE for themselves, I did and they really are just as life changing as a NDE etc...
I just wish I had more of them. I'm very jealous of natural OBErs like your self.
