INTRIGUING AND INTERESTING
The skeptic will scoff and snicker at this book, which is about Bruce Moen's out-of-body travel into other dimensions of reality and his "soul retrieval" work, which usually involves informing recently-deceased souls that they are dead. Moen's findings are consistent with a wealth of other metaphysical material handed down over the years, particularly the finding that a large percentage of souls -- those who have not been spiritually enlightened or have led materialist lives -- don't immediately realize they are dead after they make their transition to the "other side." It is as if they having a bad dream. (Do you know that you are "alive" when you are dreaming?)

The reader who is not familiar with out-of-body travel may find the book difficult to understand or accept. But the reader who has an open mind will find it intriguing and interesting. The same goes for Moen's earlier book, "Voyages Into the Unknown."

A Continuation on the Theme of the First Book
Bruce continues his work and development with the Monroe Method for Retrievals in this second book. I found his contacts with Monroe and Dr. Ed Wilson to be a little tedious however. I think I gained more insight into the Case History of individuals then I did from his constant contact with these two individuals. I get the feeling that Bruce is a special person in their regard, especially for "their" way of doing things. I think that what is valuable about this book and the entire series, is the detailed information we get, sometimes in bits and pieces and sometimes in extensive discourse, relevant information to what happens to us when we die and proceed to move on to our afterlife "life." I think it helps us to understand that we should overcome our wrote pre-conceptions about what happens when death occurs. I find most exciting, his detailed work and analysis on what he calls the "Disk." This is his term for the Higher Self, the Overself or the Group Self. Among these is an another group member called Coach...a bulldog faced, cigar chomping spirit whom I would liken to a boxing coach of the old school. Various different aspects of Bruce's Higher Conciousness help him to carry on advanced work in the Monroe Method in this second of the series books. I found it comforting to read this book, as if the first one had not stopped, for its flavor and tone, though matured, had not stopped in consistency. His first book was extremely analytical in Self Analysis, and he seems to have let up a little in this area (which I found good!), as he gains confidence and maturity in what he is doing. I found his cigarette breaks to be an enlightening point, that he could carry on spiritual work and still be a smoker, which lent itself a lot of "see I am a human being too" to the story.

I find Bruce's dedication to his spiritual advancement highly admirable. He sacrificed family and job to advance himself spiritually, something which I find that a lot of us don't have the guts for. He went for broke because he believed in what he was doing, though at times he self doubts...I think that doubting part is only natural. I believe that a reader who has little spiritual insight would find this book to be a little difficult to grasp, and I agree with Bruce that in order to understand the continuing saga of the whole thing, the reader must first ground themselves in his first book, Voyages into the Unknown. This especially is true when it comes to Bruce's mention of the various different focus' and what they mean/function for.

I think the Monroe method is probably more scientific than most of us would give credit for. I have found reference in a Remote Viewing Book to the Monroe Institute, and know that if the Monroe Institute is involved here with the Creative Lab scenario, then the most rigid scientific principles in parapsychology have to be applied.

For all those doubters out there who think that all of this is bunk, just consider the fact that the CIA had an active working program in Remote Viewing...and if you think that these things don't exist and that this is just delusional thinking, then you had better reconsider!

I would estimate that this book would have been a little bit better if less reference had been made to Monroe and Wilson continuously, and a little bit more detail had been given specific to what was observed over "There."

One thing I have noticed throughout the trilogy is that very little mention of "God" is made at all...or any reference to a Higher Source, A Creator or to anything similar. I think its possible Bruce must have purposely avoided reference to God in an attempt to avoid crossing with people's religious beliefs about what happens. However, I find it hard to believe that Bruce and these other people could possibly be carrying on this work and NOT come into contact with the Divine Nature of what its really all about! Bruce needs to do some explaining here in greater detail, as I am sure when you are "over there" you are also in contact with God or the Source. He needs to give a little bit more detail about the divine nature of this entire work.

On the whole, my grade is a B+ for the book.

As Good As Robert Monroe's Books
If you have ever wondered what awates us on the other side, if you have ever had a fear of death, if you have ever dreamed a dream of a loved one who has left this exsistance that was so real, You need Bruce Moen's books. He is the best thing to come out of The Monroe Institute since Robert. At least, the best I have found. His books should be required reading for everyone alive.
