I've read all of Michael Roads books. This one is my favorite. It is the pinnacle of all the books that came before. "Into a Timeless Realm" was published after, but written before "Journey Into Oneness."

Michael Roads has always been admittedly resistant to sharing his knowledge. Perhaps this is why he is so little known in America. Yet part of his appeal is that despite being a true Self-realized master, he is humanly a stubborn, down-to-earth, world-involved person like his readers. This makes it easy to relate to him for he is as gee-whizzed over his adventures as we are.

And what adventures! Most of his books, but especially this one take place in an out of body state where he encounters strange and wise Beings, some of whom turn out to be himself! Every encounter is fraught with danger, humor and great learning -- not just for Michael, but also for the reader. As he grows in consciousness, so do we.

This book is not for you if you are rigidly religious, overly fearful or do not believe in mystical possibility. This book IS for you if you are a genuine spiritual seeker, a believer in wonders and miracles, a lover of Nature, and if you have a hope or a knowing that you, too, can experience the states of being that Michael has and bring your life into the Light of meaning, purpose and love. You will learn that this crazy, seemingly chaotic world and your confused, over-burden life really do have great, amazing purpose and meaning and that you are never alone.

Truly one of my favorite books ever, it challenged the limitations of my thinking in almost every chapter. Often I had to put the book down and let the borders of my mind expand enough to comprehend it. Now two years later, I am still grateful for the exercise of expansion the book puts you through. The mind keeps desiring expansion, pushing the boundaries outward as well as inward. When you're ready- you must read this book!

I read this book at a friend's on Maui on a quasi-spiritual retreat. It was so lovely I had to track down a copy for myself. Not only is the book inspirational, but it really "explained" through the story certain spiritual concepts that I had studied but couldn't yet grasp.

Contained in this book is a lot of wisdom and truth, which really helped me put my life(s) in perspective.

A delightful and unique expression of one person's process and experience of enlightnement. Part of a trilogy.

Following along on Michael Roads' path through his books was so beneficial to me at the time when I was just discovering my own spiritual path. Once my left-brained pharmacist's mind cracked open, I hungered for anything that would help explain the things I was experiencing. Michael Road's books and two workshops I attended have allowed me to move along my soul's path more readily. I recommend all of Michael's books to anyone who is beginning to question the illusion of the reality that we're raised to believe in.

Michael Roads recounts how he goes through "the Doors" and enters the spiritual realms. He communicates with trees and animals, experiencing how it is to be them and meets with various higher aspects of himself who guide him through mind-boggling realities, take him to prehistoric times on Earth, "hospitals" for receiving the newly passed over, etc. etc. He experiences directly the oneness of all life.

Although I haven't read any of the preceding books I found this one to be lovely. It contained just the right information to support me on my own journey and was well written. I highly recommend this book.
