So, I finished reading the book.

Have you finished the book yet; if not, where are you at?: yes
Do you like the writing style?: yes
Is the subject matter difficult to comprehend?: no
Would you read more from this author?:maybe

Overall, I enjoyed his own spiritual experiences, but was disappointed about the method he came up with to explain his experiences.

I was disappointed also to find that he put energy equal to consciousness. His method at best is just another way to read energy. It is still to complicated and even if we had the answer for every question , we would 1) need to know the question (which is always according to our understanding and based on our desires and needs). A person that is hungry is not going to ask the same question a person that is full will. 2) We will not end suffering in our life or in this world by knowing the answers to our questions. I just don't see how. 3) Do we really need a second person to know/hear the Truth? and 4) it is not a"sure" method. There are too many things to take into consideration, the mood a person is in, the mind set, metal worn, the way the question is asked and formulated and so on. By the time we have the perfect condition are we not just validating our own belief?

Part 1

Chapter 1: Critical Avances in Knowledge

In this chapter he lays out some of the advances in research and theory that have helped further his own approach, plus he gives us the diagram for trancending causality.

Roughly:

ABC - Attractor pattern
lll - Operants
A-B-C - Observable event

Chapter 2: History and Methodology

Here he goes over the procedure he has developed and how to do it.

Chapter 3: Test Results and Interpretations

Here he lays out his calibration chart. Here's a partial representation of that chart:



This, I thought was one of his more interesting concepts. 200 is the critical breakpoint in his system where power begins to exceed force.

Any thoughts from these three chapters?
