Synopsis

From earliest recorded history, people have claimed that in certain special conditions they were in communication with entities inhabiting a higher dimension of reality than our own, This phenomenon is called channeling. Those who claim to have experienced it, the nature of the messages they have received, the scientific and metaphysical theories that explain it, and the techniques anyone can use to unfold his or her own latent capacities for a direct experience of channeling are all explored in this definitive book. Author Jon Klimo demystifies channeling by reviewing the content and significance of these messages and through fascinating personal interviews, explores the experiences and perspectives of well-known channels such as Lazarus, the Space Brothers, and Ramtha. Klimo provides an in-depth historical look at this phenomenon - from its earliest recorded instance up to its current widespread popularity.

From Publishers Weekly

In this study of channeling, earlier called spirit communication or mediumship, Klimo, who teaches at Rosebridge Graduate School in the San Francisco Bay Area, writes with clarity about "the communication of information to or through a physically embodied human being from a source . . . on some other level or dimension of reality other than the physical as we know it." He profiles recent channels and their sources, goes back to preliterate societies and the advent of monotheism and identifies as channels such figures as Moses, Solomon, Muhammad, Merlin, Nostradamus, Swedenborg and Edgar Cayce. He discusses the sorts of people who are channels, kinds of information channeled, sources of information channeled and varieties of channeling like clairvoyance and automatic writing. According to Klimo, few people tap into their abilities to perform channelingand for those who think they can, he serves as guide.
