The cover of this book is beautiful, but the contents weren't even close to what I anticipated after reading the back cover. This is not a "psychic techniques" book. Not in comparison with the other books of the same subject. 85% of this book is the author giving his opinions which are not revelatory or insightful. They are "old news". I felt if this book had been written in the 1970's it might have been more popular. It also seemed as if this book was written for complete skeptics that have no knowledge of the paranormal or metaphysical. If you have ever read any book on developing your psychic abilities, I would definitely skip this one. If you have no knowledge of psychic senses and metaphysical / paranormal subjects, then you might enjoy this book.

If you can read and think, you will realize that the author just brags (indirectlt, rather in a smart way), beats around the bush and just provide some useless info on opening of the chakras which he makes it seem soooooo easy (which of course it isn't). If opening the chakras were that easy, there would be training centers all over USA that offer it as a short course ("Opening Your Chakras in Seven Days", say as an example).

Don't waste your time and money on this one.

Robert Cracknell insists that he is not a teacher but he is perhaps the best psychic teacher around, and his book on psychic phenomena (he is a professional psychic detective) is likewise the best, and certainly the wisest, take on an important and too often sensationalized subject. The author believes (rightly) that we are all psychic and demands that we assume the personal responsibility for our powers, which he is at pains to de-mystify. Cracknell is earthy and balanced, unlike many in this field. He wants us to stop relying on gurus and messiahs and instead rely on ourselves to cultivate (psychic) self-awareness, which he sees as a moral (and environmental) imperative. His prose is direct and clear, as is his message. I cannot recommend this book too highly!

The only thing related about developing psychic abilities is about opening the chakras. However, many books out there do a better job than this one. Looks more like the author got his psychic abilities through a traumatuc childreen rather than chakra development. Read the book and you'll see what I mean.

Borrow from the library if you are curious but I wouldn't buy this book.

This is the worst book on the subject of psychic development because you won't learn such things from it. Clearly a waste of paper.
