The Best There Is December 8, 2007 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you want an insider's look at the nature of reality, then read all of Robert A. Monroe's books and take his workshops at the Monroe Institute, www.themonroeinstitute.com
He's written three books. It's important to read them in order: Journeys Out of the Body, Far Journeys, Ultimate Journey.
I've read each at least 4 times (and am still reading them)--and I never read anything twice--and am still getting huge insights and understandings about the nature of reality, our purpose here on earth, how it all works and why it is the way it is.
Additionally, Monroe's books have been the only books that have acknowledged the diversity of experiences that I've had, but that no one was/is writing about. Basically the resonance is so strong that I read and I cry.
The best there is.
Mr. Monroe journey continues........... March 25, 2007 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
Mr.Monroe takes the reader through the phyiscal universe and forward to the future 3000 AD. We are not alone! You will have to buy the book to discover what he finds........
Superb and fascinating information August 10, 2006 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
This is the best book on the market about Astral Projection and what happens afterwards. I admire Monroe enormously. He has done valuable research for mankind, and even though many of us cannot/or will not have an out-of-body, for fear or other limitations, at least we know step by step how to do it and what to expect. The Bible of AP!
Incomprehensible Gibberish July 26, 2006 6 out of 22 found this review helpful
I recently read Robert Monroe's first book, "Journeys Out of Body" and found it to be a disappointment - it was just weird. As I noted in my review of that book, I had hoped that the author would discuss his use of sound, for which he is allegedly noted. As I purchased this book at the same time and had nothing else to read, I thought I'd give it a try.
The book did start out with a brief discussion of some of his "research" and I thought that, perhaps, this book might actually have some real substance. That belief; however, quickly disappeared. By the time I had reached the half-way point in the book, nothing remained but a schizophrenic quagmire of incomprehensible gibberish. How does total garbage like this manage to get printed?!
There are those that claim that Monroe was a highly left-brained individual who delved into the realm of the creative right-brain. If this book is any indication, one can't help but wonder if Monroe was missing his entire left hemisphere! There is nothing logical or, for that matter, even coherent in the babble spewed across the endless pages of this book. It would have been worthwhile if Monroe had actually described his experiments and resulting data in a scientific manner. Instead, he chose to spew his incoherent ramblings about his own, personal, dream experiences: these wander so aimlessly, from paragraph to paragraph, that one can't help but wonder what real point, if any, he was trying to make.
The really sad thing is that I had really hoped to find a genuinely scientific study of his work - I was actually quite interested in the topic. Having now been subjected to two of his useless books, I'm amazed that they're still in print. This is pseudo-science at its absolute worst.
Far Journeys Review July 3, 2006 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I am so passionate about this book. It has answered all the life questions I have ever held. Although many people I have recommended it to have reported that they have not been able to "get into it" - for me, I would say it is the best book I have ever read. This is about the 5th copy I have purchased because when I lend it out, somehow it is not returned and I want to have a copy to re-read every now and then. (I will not be lending this one again)
