Otherwhere A Field Guide to Nonphysical Reality for the Out-Of-Body Traveler Paperback - 2001

Some underlining. You may not be planning a trip to Otherwhere, but you may want to visit soon after reading Kurt Leland's dazzling and unique field guide to its inhabitants and terrain. According to Leland, Otherwhere is the nonphysical reality that many of us explore in our dreams and visions. It is also the realm to which we venture in our out-of-body journeys and near-death experiences. To Leland, the trickiest part of otherworldly travel is correctly identifying the phenomena we encounter. Astral images, he says, take shapes that vary according to our pesonal experience and cultural background. As an aid to fellow travelers, Leland presents "translation tables" that categorize nonphysical energies by function rather than form--Rescuers, Instructors, and Rangers, to name a few. Drawn from different cultural expressions, these tables provide a fascinating explanantion of the many different ways in which human beings perceive the spiritual worlds. A professional psychic and seasoned out-of-body traveler, Leland is an otherworld tour guide extraordinaire. Illustrating his travelogue with examples from his own adventures, he escorts readers to various points of interest in Otherwhere. These include designated realms where you can explore alternate realities--play out the results of different 'what ifs' in your current life, paths you never took, but might have. Another memorable stop on Leland's tour is the living archives, a depository of vanished cultures, abandoned religions, and outmoded myths. With Leland's thoroughly engaging guidebook in hand, travelling to Otherwhere will be an adventure you are sure to enjoy.
