But planning doesn't mean the book can't change within the writing process - I find it still does in unexpected and inspiring ways. (less)

Journeys Out of the Body by Robert A. Monroe

One of the first books I read that started my interest into OBEs, NDEs and consciousness more broadly. A wonderfully candid and detailed account of Monroe's experiences. Truly a classic work that established him as a pioneer in the field.

Kundalini by Gopi Krishna

A fascinating book about a fascinating subject. This is a very candid account of Krishna's kundalini awakening and I was particularly interested about his 'hearing' of sounds during the experience. A spiritual phenomenon for spiritual evolution.

Quotes by Alistair Conwell  (?)

“After all, from the moment of our birth we are all in a sense dying. Each moment that passes brings us closer to the time of our death.”
Alistair Conwell, The Audible Life Stream: Ancient Secret of Dying While Living

“For the truth is that the brain sullies the flow of pure
consciousness to provide us with a physical, but inherently distorted, view of reality. And the
reason is quite simple—the brain cannot deal with non-physical realities so it conveniently rejects these, while necessarily allowing the flow of consciousness to continue.”
Alistair Conwell, The Audible Life Stream: Ancient Secret of Dying While Living

Woody Allen

Mark Twain
