Reference Material,
By
This review is from: The Element Encyclopedia of the Psychic World (The Element Encyclopedia series)
HUGE reference book on spirits, paranormal, psychic stuff, stones, crystals, people, places, things, and whatever else. A full sized book, 850 pages of material. If you can't find a little something about it here, I'd be real surprised. (Example: "table-tilting," tipping or turning is the crudest form of communication with the subconscious self or with extraneous intelligences. Yet tables have been associated with divination and communication with spirits since antiquity. . .") It goes on to tell you some history. We have a 20-page tiny font index alone for you to look up whatever topic you need to. It's written in such a way that you can either just read your way through topics in paragraph form, like Crystal stuff, or you can look up a specific item, like Tai Chi. A ton of info for the money, in encyclopedia type fashion.

This review is from: Element Encyclopedia of the Psychic World: The Ultimate A-Z of Spirits, Mysteries and the Paranormal (Hardcover)
I purchased my copy from onespirit.com book club. At the time of release and still today, this book was only available via One Spirit and Amazon UK as primary places to buy.I have really enjoyed this book. The scope and coverage is very broad and well articulated. There is a tremendous amount of information here. I have considered that it would have been great, if the entries were further developed, to include the aspects of "Ultimate Reality". However that would turn this book into at least a 5 volume set. Thus, making it into a more powerful resource. It has been stated that this book presented several points of view in each of the articles, based on what is generally accepted by others. Leaving the reader to choose for themselves, what they consider to be; within their individual belief window. I agree with this point. I have made some notes in my copy on different articles that would not be correct, based on the laws of Ultimate Reality. It's a great place to start your research. Then one needs to take that information and research further on. Hopefully one day soon, someone will put out a mutiple volume, definitive set, that addresses all these things in great detail. Showing what is truely so under Ultimate Reality vs. what is "thought" to be so, by the beliefs of the populous, within the physical plane of our world. I will treasure this book and keep it in my library for future references.

Fascinating resource,

This review is from: Element Encyclopedia of the Psychic World: The Ultimate A-Z of Spirits, Mysteries and the Paranormal (Hardcover)
This book is arranged in an A to Z format so you can dip in and out and I liked that. The entries are all fascinating and what is really good is that you get both sides of the story - sceptic and believer - leaving you the reader to weigh up the evidence and make your own mind up about the psychic world. My only issue with the book is that it could have benefitted from a few illustrations to break up the text, but apart from that it's a book I shall refer to again and again over the years.

This book basically has the layout of a dictionary about all things supernatural, It doesn't go into detail on things, except a few subjects. But it's well written, and the variety is amazing.I <3 IT! |
