DESCRIPTION:
But it does crack open your head long enough to provide a new perspective.” –Dean Radin, Chief Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author of Supernormal; Entangled Minds; and The Conscious Universe"Something is happening here, and we're not sure what it is, but Kripal and Strieber have a clue: if there are aliens among us, they are ourselves, and we seem eager to make contact. This book is at once disturbing and disorienting, fascinating and lucid. Erudite, illuminating, and thoroughly exciting (not to mention quite funny at times), Strieber and Kripal’s collaboration takes a serious look at what many would consider an unserious subject and have written the most thought-provoking and important book on the essence and nature of unexplained phenomena in more than forty years.” –Gary Jansen, aut
These and other of Strieber's books have formed the basis for many popular movies, including The Day After Tomorrow.JEFFREY J. He is best known for his groundbreaking memoir Communion, which popularized the alien-abduction thesis, as well as his many bestselling novels, such as The Wolfen <
Shashank Singh said "Any sufficiently profound magical event is indistinguishable from technology". This book is about a shamanic postmodern tantra of alien communion.I loved this book and I was a little disappointed toward the end as well.

SPOILERS So the human being exists as two, maybe three things, maybe more - the ego (us in our bodies experiencing time), and the other / the visitors (us without the dimension of time - perhaps) the other is filtered through the mind which interacts with culture and the environment to form the ego, (us in our bodies experiencing time), but what is the other? It is a plasma ball that causes us to hallucinate our . I could not recommend this work any more strongly During the late 1980's and into the 90's, there was an unprecedented explosion of what was considered New Age Books, and writings. We collectively learned about reincarnation, chakras, out of body exploration, meditation, yoga, any and all religious philosophy of: thought, history, comparisons, evaluations, etc., as these all were explored in multifaceted ways. We also learned of and read on the UFO experience, and Whitley Strieber was perhaps the leader, albeit not purposely, of this field. His ex
But this natural world is immeasurably more weird, more wonderful, and probably more populated than we have so far imagined with our current categories and cultures, which are what really make these things seem "impossible." The Super Natural considers that the natural world is actually a "super natural world"--and all we have to do to see this is to change the lenses through which we are looking at it and the languages through which we are presently limiting it. Kripal (J. Two of today's maverick authors on anomalous experience present a perception-altering and intellectually thrilling analysis of why the paranormal is real, but radically different from what is conventionally understood.Whitley Strieber (Communion) and Jeffrey J. Newton Rayzor professor of religion at Rice University) team up on this unprecedented and intellectually v
