Metaphysical reads...

[AnyDream]

We've not had a lot of ongoing discussion threads in our Metaphysical forum,
so I thought it might be nice to start one that we can contribute to meaningfully over a longer period of time.

It might help counteract all the "I can't find my ...xyz" threads

I've just started reading a really interesting book called Dreamhealer by a young guy in Canada called Adam. Adam was able to see & manipulate energy from a very early age, and later turned his skills towards healing people. As an energetic practitioner myself, I can't wait to dive into the details about his methods, compare it with the framework that I work in. He healed a high profile rock star of late-stage pancreatic cancer and has since attracted a huge following.

What's your current or past interesting metaphysical read? Also welcome discussion of any of your favorites, or books that really helped you frame your world view/spirituality/practice.

well i just bought a book off ebay called ' miracles' by stuart wilde.. it was recommended to me by a friend. anyone read it? i'm not 100% sure what it is about but i was looking for some reading to do with spirituality and such. :-)

Marydean..'dreamhealer' sounds really interesting, especially if you are working in this kind of area already. :-)

Not sure if its classified as a metaphysical read, but i've just finished re-reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I first read it in my late teens and whilst it got me thinking i don't think i really followed what was being said. Having read it again it was a nice, albeit simplistic, reminder that if we truly believe in something and really want something bad enough, the universe will help us to achieve our dreams/hopes...

ok, just read (quickly) through that stuart wilde book 'miracles' and it sounds a lot like 'the secret' type thing. positive thinking, infinate power within yourself to make your wants come to be etc. not too sure of this.. a bit skeptical still.

some bits that made me think though, and what are your thoughts, are;

"when you entered the earth plane, the energy that is the real you left its abode in the higher dimensions of pure light, and entered, by choice, the body youre now in. You chose the circumstances of this life because it was the next step in your infinate evolution, and because this life would allow you to expand what you are spiritually so that you could become an even greater expression of the infinate life force or Living Spirit." page 7-8

my first thought was actually that my babies have chosen to be apart of my life. second thought.. is that talking about past lives? third thought.. what the heck is my lifes purpose?!!??!!! and if i stuff it up, dp i have to do it all again?

"There's just energy-one powerthat pervades all things, and everything is a part of the power. differentiation between good and evil is just perception, for within real energy there is no judgement." page 27

hmmmm.... so say, murdering, raping etc others is not evil??

Hollo, how did you get on with your Stuart Wilde book? I've read some of his, lots of articles from his website too, find him to be very interesting and quite thought provoking too.

I'm currently going through and audio-book and DVD phase...I've got the "Conversations with God" DVD waiting to watch, and have put the Louise Hay "You can heal your life" DVD on hold at the library. I'm also listening to Wayne Dyer doing a "Making the shift" seminar (in Maui, where else ) and I've listened to 2 CDs worth and he hasn't yet got to the point...not sure where it's going TBH but it's easy enough to listen while I'm doing other things around the house.
