This is a hard review to write for the same reason that this is a good book to read. What's it all about? How much of it do I buy into? It's a trip. I read and enjoy Bob Frissell's books because as Bob Dylan once said, "I know there's something happening here, but I don't know what it is." Frissell's books are all brimming over with bizarre information about the "true" nature of the Universe and this one is no different. It talks about sacred geometry, ascended Masters, Christ Consciousness, Martians, Sirians, different dimensions, Bible Codes, the pineal gland, rebirthing, the Fall of Atlantis, the Secret Government, the Greys, Thoth, Ra and the boys from Egypt and Luciferian consciousness among many other juicy topics.
Have you ever tried wrapping your head around the Universe...I mean just the concept of a Uni-verse? Then think about microcosm and macrocosm, about energy and love, about the subtle bodies and different planes of existence. How about "I Am"? OM. How about co-creating that Universe? Well, if you're reading this review, you probably have. This book, like the two preceding it, Nothing In This Book Is True and Something in This Book Is True, are point blank discussions about many different so-called New Age topics, frankly stated and without a lot of extraneous fluff, and they contain much material that has been delivered to Frissell by an exulted being of an order known as the Melchizedeks, by the name of Drunvalo Melchizedek, himself an interesting author. Basically, it's the lowdown on the evolution of the human race in the grand scheme of the evolution of the planet and the solar system and the Universe itself. I find it enormously entertaining and thought-provoking and I actually do feel that much of it is true, as embarassing as that would be to admit in many circles within which I travel. I mean it's just so "out there". But then, I'm a person who, based on my own observations, personally believes that birds can travel inter-dimensionally. Think how tickled I was to read in this book that Bob thinks dolphins can do the same thing! Wow.
In order to become more fully actualized and to help our planet make the shift into higher consciousness Bob recommends some breathing and meditating techniques which I have not tried. That's the thing, I guess, all this crazy stuff IS just too much for me to really integrate. When I read the fascinating quantum physics parts of his book, I am just zipping along out there in the cosmos and I'm following it and I can see myself as a geometric form of energy, the totality of Being and at the same time but an aspect of Being, shifting my identity from that of a human victim to being a spiritual Master and then I gotta put the book down and watch The Weakest Link on TV. I guess I'm still just a third dimensional spud, but I love these books. Check this one out.

Now, is that a reason to buy a book? Well, I started to read it and it hit some chords, like: I knew that, didn't I? That sounds familiar, but why? And then, near the end, I became angry because I knew I've always believed this, but didn't know how to put it into play. So, I threw the book across the room. The very next day a friend started talking to me about everything in the book - and she didn't even know I was reading it! So, there you have it: this book started me on a really interesting journey. If you have trouble with it, just wait, but definitely read it. Bob's style is very different. He just puts it right out there, take it or leave it. (If you try to leave it, it will follow you, so just take it...)Seriously, if you find yourself drawn to this book, I recommend it.

I have read Bob Frissell's other books and they were both way better than this book. It is the information from the other summarized and written very poorly. The only new information was about "indigo children" and finding codes in certain holy writings which was thoroughly uninteresting. Don't waste your money on this rehashed book. The cover is the best thing about it. Buy Nothing In This Book Is True and Something ITBIT.

This is the first book I've read by Bob Frissell. His style is direct and to the point. Great emphasis on self responsiblity and co-creater ability. Much of his truths are deep and bizarre, yet, them seem possible. And no harm is done by going way out with thought. I found that he always sent me back within myself to experience answers. Book was too short. I was enjoying it too much for it to be over so soon.

If you've been reading lots of new age information and like me couldn't get how our bodies relate to the earth's electromagnetic fields & pole shifts, and how those in turn relate to 3rd dimension vs. 4th, and what ascended masters can do with these fields, how sacred geometry relates to all this, how the dolphins and Native Americans could be more advanced with less technology, and what the heck they all mean by "All the answers are within you" give this a read. This is the first book I have read by this author and while his info does not seem to be channeled from a higher source, it *does* seem to tie all the channeled info together. In fact, I cannot imagine any other way to make sense out of it all. You'll love this book if you've read anything by Ramtha, it explains some of the science of it all, although it is quite a few scientific steps up beyond Conversations. He gets much of his info from Drunvalo Melchizedek, and makes some sense out of him, which is respectable. (and I never have read Seth so I am not sure where it would be in relation to that.) Although it seems that fans of his tune in to hear UFO stories - and they pop up here and there in the book - if you are advanced in New Age information, you can easily overlook any hype surrounding them and view them as just another race as we usually do with everything else. Very, very informative to the point where you end up doubting your sanity for a couple days after reading it, until it sinks in and you decide which theories make sense (and most of them do).

If you didn't know it before, you know it now. Lots of information here that could blow your mind or give extra knowledge. Make your choice.

The title is worth the price of the book. "You are a Spiritual Being Having a Human Experience." If you know and appropriate this one sentence it will change your whole life. This book written in Bob's inimical clear concise style is a good book to wet one's appetite for Bob's other two books, "Nothing In This book is True, But it's Exactly How Things Are"(15th Anniversary Edition) and the companion to it "Something in This Book is True"(Second edition). I read this book first and then had to read Nothing and Something. A very important book to help us wake up and get into Unity Consciousness and emotional healing and get ready for our and Mother Earth's Ascenstion. I highly recommend you get this book and read it as soon as you can.

I'm half way through this book (after having read Bob Frissell's 'Something...' in four days) and I can't put it down but to write this review! Worded in a wonderfully simple and enjoyable manner, Bob helps us to see all that we are and that all possibilities are open to us. Finally it's time to stop seeing ourselves as victims of life but masters of our lives. Far from being 'new agey' this book talks to the reader plainly and simply. It's a frank discussion with your soul, reminding it of it's essence.
I have an exam this weekend but can't put this book down to revise. Aargh!

"You Are a Spiritual Being Having a Human experience" is wonderful, I cannot express just how grateful I am for such positive insights. Thanks Bob Frissell!

Frissell explains exactly what I have felt and could not explain thoroughly in words. I respect his work and would like to thank him for putting this book out there for all to read. I especially enjoyed reading the section on dualism and how in 3d reality we tend to separate things in TWO's.. good/evil.. black/white... big/small... and how as we identify with Being.. we move beyond dualism. I'm almost done with the book. Thank you for this.
