I couldn't put it down - By: Sue Carberry, 04 Feb 2000 
I found this volume even more compelling reading than Spiritwalker & can't wait for the next volume "Visionmaker" duein March 2001 to be released. I would recommend both to anyone on the path or with an interestin esoteric matters. Go on give it a go, you want be disappointed.
Unusual? Yes! Beautifully written and thought provoking. - By: , 06 Jun 1999 Go ahead, read this book! If you feel yourself "gravitating" toward this book; if inexplicably you find yourself wishing you "had time" to read 'that sort of "fanciful" (or whatever your own qualifying word is for it) book,' just go ahead & do it! Read the book, & you won't be sorry.
This is a book of beauty & honesty. You may wonder how Wesselman recreates the vivid detail of setting, action & dialogue of his mystical experiences. --But if something like this has ever happened to you, or if you really Want it to (your spirit yearns for such experience), you will understand that the reality of other dimensions reaches out to usin as much as we reach out to it-- & that all perception is ultimately a product of our own heart.
The chapter I liked best, that I thought was very beautiful, was Chapter 7, where Wesselman takes a walk along a streambed & visits a pool & rocks called "The Narrows" at the Tassahara Zen retreat. If you have spent a dayin the sun, near the water, & drawn closer to all joyful, atomistic & interconnected aspects of the Universe-- you'll feel as if You were there, too. ...After all, You were!
Fascinating adventure through time - By: , 26 May 1999 
Dr. Wesselman, an anthropologist, has written a paranormal narrative that is convincing, & entertaining enough that it's hard to put this one down. (There are obvious comparisons to Carlos Casteneda. I wonder if Dr. Wesselman's peers have received his story with any more open-mindedness.)
Meeting your own descendant, (or perhaps your own reincarnated self) 5000 years into a post-apocalyptic future makes for a pretty incredible read. Also interesting is the description of a digin the Rift Valley of Africa where Wesselman & colleagues find the most ancient human remains--along with a few mystical encounters.
This story raises many questions about the destiny of our planet, & our spirits: the workings of visionary journeys, & reincarnationin relation to the Grand Scheme; and, particularly, about the time line. Just how unalterable, or malleable might it be? The end of the story left me wondering how Dr.W copes with the apparent knowledge that his descendant, Nainoa, livesin a world that is testament to the decimation of human civilization by catastrophic global warming. Does he believe that there may still be hope (to alter our collective coursein time)?
Very interesting with another new bent on life and death. - By: , 19 Feb 1999 I enjoyed reading this book. It is one that I didn't want to put down. Reads easily & smoothly. Good storyline & makes you think--always a good formula for good reading, I think.
