No Ordinary Book--Invoke the Soul Power "Downloaded" to This Book, November 13, 2007
This review is from: Soul Communication: Opening Your Spiritual Channels for Success and Fulfillment (No. II) (Hardcover)
Dr. Sha's Soul Communication book describes how you can use soul communication to communicate with other souls, including the souls of animals, plants, inanimate objects, and those in the Soul World. Dr. Sha teaches that everything has a soul including all animate and inanimate things. Using soul communication you can receive wisdom and healing from any soul in the universe. You can use soul communication for healing, teaching, service, and advancing your spiritual journey. The major spiritual channels for doing soul communication are Soul Language, Direct Soul Communication, Third Eye, and Direct Knowing. There are many practices and blessings included for opening these channels.
Dr. Sha's Soul Communication book is no ordinary book. Dr. Sha is a very high spiritual master. Spiritual masters have the ability to transmit spiritual power. As I mentioned, Master Sha teaches that everything has a soul, including the Soul Communication book. In addition to the power of the soul of the Soul Communication book, Dr. Sha has transmitted or "downloaded" additional souls and blessings to every Soul Communication book. So while you are reading the book you are receiving the blessings. Also, you can invoke these special souls downloaded to the book to help you open your spiritual channels and to help you heal and transform. To invoke these souls, you would say, "Dear soul, mind, and body of the Divine treasures downloaded to this book. I love and respect you. Please give me a blessing to fully open my spiritual channels (or whatever your request is). Do a great job. Thank you." Then chant using the mantra described for the Message Center on page 30 of the book, or chant using Soul Language (page 32). You can also hold the book against your Message Center with the front cover facing you (or the front cover facing away from you if you want to send a blessing to someone else). Chant for several minutes or longer. Then close by saying "thank you, thank you, thank you." If you are interested in using the power of more of Master Sha's downloads, visit his web page to find the Divine downloads that Master Sha has given to all humanity or to all souls. Go to drsha dot com, then click on the Universal Service menu, then select "Divine Gifts." See the information on "Universal Downloads." One of these gifts that will help you to open your spiritual channels is the Divine Soul Transplant of Divine Level 1 Message Center. (NOTE: I have not heard Dr. Sha say what blessings he has downloaded to the paperback version of the book. However, the paperback version is new in that you can have several Divine souls downloaded to you, the reader, from the Divine just by reading specific pages in the book. The Divine souls that you receive carry divine frequency with divine love, light, forgiveness, compassion, and light. This is explained on page xv in the front of the book. To receive the first Divine download in the book, read pages 19-20.)
I would also comment about the Third Eye practices beginning on page 58 of the hardback version. Be sure to read footnote 14 on page 104 before starting. (In the paperback version, the Third Eye practices begin on page 52. The footnote appears to have been omitted, but it stated, "... If you have headaches, hypertension, glaucoma, a brain tumor, brain cancer, Alzheimer's, or are recovering from a stroke, do not practice any Third Eye exercises, because these illnesses involve energy blockages in the brain.") Page 59 of the hardback version (and page 54 of the paperback version) describes using a "lotus flower" hand position. The hands should be positioned in front of the Message Center (heart chakra) with the fingers pointing up (see the picture on page 80 of Dr. Sha's
Power Healing: Four Keys to Energizing Your Body, Mind and Spirit book). If you have any of the health conditions listed in footnote 14, you can still develop your third eye, but you must do it differently. You can use the creative visualization meditations starting on page 125 of the Power Healing book to open your third eye. These meditations include Raging Sea, 5 Colored Horses, Ginseng Tree, Finding a Pearl, and Flashing Images. One of Dr Sha's students with a very powerful third eye developed his third eye by doing the Ginseng Tree meditation every night. On drsha dot com you can also find tapes or DVD's with these meditations to help you open your third eye faster.) There are more instructions for developing the Third Eye in Dr. Sha's
Soul Mind Body Medicine: A Complete Soul Healing System for Optimum Health and Vitality Book on pages 318+.
There are some great insights in Soul Communication, such as how to deal with blockages in your life (paperback page 204), or how to help New Orleans in a different way (paperback page 208). I hope this book assists you on your spiritual journey.

Uncomfortably commercial and exclusive, November 9, 2008
I have read a variety of books in the spirituality realm and something about this author doesn't strike me as authentic. I have read many reviews here and the most disturbing are the ones that give little detail as they blindly praise this author's divinity and wisdom.
Here's the thing that I find most uncomfortable: You don't have to sell spirituality. No one has the perfect way that you can only find in his book, or shall I say "series" of books. There are many ways to reach forgiveness, peace, harmony and love. This teaching gives me an uncomfortable feeling of exclusivity. In fact, I wondered why a book about the soul, as written by Sha, was not published by Hay House--a very inclusive, "try everything that works for you"-type of company. After reading the focus and tone, I realize why Hay House might have passed on this manuscript.
I became skeptical early on, but I tried to keep an open mind and give his lessons a try. I only got as far as "Soul Language" in Soul Wisdom when he gave me a number to chant over and over, but I don't know what the number means--it's a secret and he promised to sell that secret to me in another book later on.
"Master Sha" allowed me to call on his soul as I performed my Divine Download, as long as I paid him the common courtesy of returning it when I was done. Perhaps this is an Eastern practice I have never heard of, but it felt too much to me like asking the Priest to bless my relationship with God. The way I believe, I never needed the priest to communicate with God and I don't need Master Sha to "be with me" as I meditate and find peace and wisdom from within.
I feel duped by the five-star reviews and the lack of information here posted on Amazon. I bought this book because of its previous best-seller status and the quantity of high reviews, but I agree with a previous review: something's off about the system here. I would go so far as to say that Team Sha posted more than half of the reviews to promote his "teachings."
The world is in need of and has a desire for a spiritual movement, unfortunately I feel that this "soul series" is cashing in on the market. You can find wonderful, inclusive lessons from Hay House Publishers. I recommend Louise Hay, Wayne Dyer, Jerry and Esther Hicks--to name a few from that camp.
If you don't want Hay House, try Martha Beck, who writes wonderful books about finding your soul's purpose and following your destiny. Surprisingly, none of the authors I have mentioned require you put their books to your chest in order to invoke the healing power. Save your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars
I was thinking of ordering this book, July 1, 2008
This review is from: Soul Communication: Opening Your Spiritual Channels for Success and Fulfillment (No. II) (Hardcover)
So I read the reviews. With one or two exceptions, all the reviews were written within a week of one another and they all sounded remarkably alike. My guess is that students/followers of this author were sent a message after publication of this book asking them to write reviews. Who are these people trying to fool? I would expect his followers to like the book. I wanted to read what OTHERS thought of it. This completely put me off of buying this book.
