Have you tried it or just read it? If you did try it has it worked yet?

i have tried to channel and even communicate with my guides with no luck and i have read loads of books and info on the web. Allot of the books out there were too airly fairy with nothing to make a "humble and simple" human understand the process. Or the books were too simplified.

From what i know allot of books on such topics are written just to make money and are aimed at those who have a fresh excitement about such topics- but then leave the person feeling unsatisfied.

Whats this book like? i hope you have more luck. Also what if the guides wont speak to you for whatever reason- what happens then

I've only tried one of the excersizes in the book, preparing to be a channel. It involves getting a few crystals and a few flowers. You sit down in a relaxed state and go into trance. Take a few minutes to go there. Imagine that you are recalling all of your energy back from the world and releasing other people's energy from you. Now take each item (one by one) in your hand trying to feel for it's energy. Ask to recieve it's messages, you might see images form in your mind.

This was an interesting excersize. I'm not very good at noticing energy patterns and stuff, but I could tell that each one was different. I won't really expect to be channeling until I go through a few more steps.

I feel that the books content was truthful. They have a love for the world and they want to help us find our spiritual paths.

Sometimes people will be lucky enough to hear messages from their guide, others can see an image of their guide. Most of the time you'll recieve images, emotions, or symbols ...almost like when memories pop up out of nowhere. Even though you feel like your imagining everything, you should just write everything down and keep practicing.

Greetings,

Trance is a cornerstone to many things including chanelling and Astral projection. Many books might state "enter a trance state" for example, without actually describing how this is accomplished.

Does this book describe how to enter a trance state?

With best regards,

Adrian.

Hi Adrian,
You brought up a good point about trance. I had to stop and think about that one for a while, because for me trance is like second nature. They don't explain it in great detail, but what they do have seemed to be in good quality. They have an excersize on how to achieve a full relaxed state, also an exersize about focus and concentration.

I think they have a light idea of what trance is. They say that simple things like taking a shower, doing artwork, or driving could easily be compared to the trance state needed to be a channel.

I hope I answered your question. This might not be the best book if you're just starting to learn about those things.

How to connect with your guide
by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer
1987

This book is very easy to read. I almost didn't buy it, but I'm glad I did. It tells you step by step how to become a channel. They make it simple. The first few steps a lot of you already know how to do: developing a relaxed state and going into trance. You don't have to worry about communicating with all kinds of spirits (that's what a medium might do). A guide who matches you the best will make contact with you, and from then on you'll keep channeling the same being.

The way they wrote the book is quite interesting too. The writers are a couple and they both channel, so all four beings collaborated the information.
