OfflineI imagine that I just heard a collective groan when y'all read that topic title. I know, I know… most of them are crap. But at the moment, I'm reading a fairly interesting one that I picked up a while back, started to read, then never quite found the time to finish. Channeling: Investigations on Receiving Information from Paranormal Sources by Jon Klimo. I believe I have the original edition, not the revised (I bought it used).
It seems to be a very even-handed look at channeling… not fully skeptical, but not a kool-aid drinker by any means either. It even specifically calls out some famous channeled beings like Ramtha as being "Third-Rate Yule Brennar impressions", and suggests that the most parsimonious explanation for them is fakery. It also looks at channeling in both a modern and historical context, which I very much appreciate. It also mentions that some channeled beings are nonhuman, both "star brothers" (possibly an earlier version of "star people"/"starseed") and angels being examples given.
Anyone else read this book? If so, what'd you think? If not… know any other good books on the subject of channeling/channeled beings/walk-ins?
