My book club chose this last month. The print is clean and easy on the eyes for long sessions.
Exactly what I was looking for. The ideas are old but land with surprising force today. Would buy from this store again.
Added this to my reference shelf. Solid binding, decent paper — holds up to heavy use. I'd have loved an index, but that's on the original text. Still worth having on the shelf.
Took a chance on this and glad I did. The language takes some getting used to, but it becomes part of the charm. Definitely recommend.
Finally got around to ordering this. The typesetting is comfortable for study, with good margins for notes. It's become a regular reference in my practice. If you're drawn to this subject, don't hesitate.
Exactly what I was looking for. A text you study rather than simply read. Solid binding, decent paper — holds up to heavy use. Glad I finally picked this up.
This text provides a fascinating glimpse into an unconventional two-month trial, detailing how twelve individuals navigated an alternative dimension of thought. While the premise of bridging worlds via collective consciousness is intriguing, the book may not suit those preferring rigorous academic anthropology or traditional dogmatic theology. Readers expecting complex plot-driven narratives might find the focus on daily practices and psychological shifts repetitive. However, for those open to experiential spirituality, it offers a candid look at the mechanics of shared awareness. It succeeds as a practical guide rather than a literary masterpiece, appealing specifically to the niche audience interested in the tangible effects of group meditation.
