MindWalking

As the title suggests, and contrary to our everyday experience, consciousness in fact knows no bounds and, in conducive circumstances, will reach beyond what we consider to be the boundaries of the known through a process that the author calls MindWalking. Using many case histories interspersed with reflections on themes such as the mechanics of ESP, memory and imagination, the Internet of souls and spirits and spiritual hyperspace, the reader is drawn into a highly informative discussion of the further reaches of consciousness. A good deal of this work involved getting to the root of traumas, and here Rolf encourages his clients to relive experiences until they lose their charge and can be fully accepted and integrated, thus establishing what he calls a new tolerance level. Sometimes, the root of the pattern lies in a previous life, and there is a fascinating case involving a man who died in a climbing accident and was able to made contact with his companion of the time and release him from his misconceived guilt. The idea of mental files is very useful, as well as mental fields established through intention and attention. People who do not realise they have died can be a problem for the living, as explained in another case where the professional was able to communicate with the mind of the deceased. Rolf's theoretical framework suggests the new term 'vitality being' for that entity that manages the body, while our spiritual being manages the mind. Psychotherapists will find this book of special interest for its clinical content, while other readers will find that it expands their understanding of consciousness and reality and the patterns that shape us.
