5.0 out of 5 stars The Why in the Road, March 23, 2006
By 
This review is from: The Why in the Road - Soul Healing for Changing Times (Paperback)
To achieve healing we must bridge the gap between head and heart. We have the tools but
often don't know we have them, nor how to use them. The Why in the Road is a
roadmap to understanding who we are and who we can be. Author, educator and healer
Katharina Wehrli has given us a marvelous textbook to learn where we came from and
what we can do to find oneness with Creator.

"To grow beyond the limitations of the past, everyone is in a perpetual state of
becoming.", writes Ms. Wehrli. We human beings have forgotten our true origins. But
with the right use of meditation, yoga and other spiritual disciplines that contain the
eternal truths leading to liberation, the path to oneness is shortened dramatically." The
Why in the Road offers that path.

"Life's deeper purpose is the completion of the soul's evolutionary journey through
fulfilling and eliminating all earthly desires...Confusion starts where the right choice is
muddled up by an array on contradictory desires." Katharina Wehrli shows us the way!
We learn that this leads to expanded awareness which in turn leads to "...an augmented
desire to spiritualize, to consciously merge with the Source of all life."

The Why in the Road teaches us to look at our past. "Once this perspective is gained,
there is no further need to keep looking backward to countless attempts to recap what
never can be changed." This understanding of our evolution opens the door to align
ourselves with spiritual values such as respect for all life including our own.

Katharina Wehrli writes, "Evolution is the inherent pull and supplication of life toward
advancement. By removing resistance and aligning ourselves with natural directives,
change can take place without cataclysms." And that is the gift of The Why in the Road,
an insightful treasure you should read and digest!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Why in the Road, March 28, 2006

This review is from: The Why in the Road - Soul Healing for Changing Times (Paperback)
The Why in the Road supplies a comprehensive esoteric background. The information builds up to a unique perspective, which leaves the reader with new understanding. It is worthwhile to read the book just for this. But these spiritually inspiring insights are really only the prelude. The deeper psychological comprehension they pave the way for is the real treasure.

The Why in the Road describes human behavioral patterns. These patterns are automatic responses, which is why nobody recognizes them. The practical value of the the book lies in identifying these subconscious patterns. This is soul healing through the power of awareness. It can alter the way relationships and life in general is approached.

For hundreds of generations the collective has bought into the false belief that there is something wrong with human beings to begin with. This core feeling of not being good enough led to a subconscious inferiority complex. The book clearly traces it to the need for faultfinding, which causes people to either give or take blame. Once awareness is gained it becomes possible to see how these dynamics play out in various circumstances.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Skeptic Seeks The Path of Self-Fulfillment, February 20, 2006
This review is from: The Why in the Road - Soul Healing for Changing Times (Paperback)
"Soul Healing for Changing Times" gathers in one place a truly diverse universe of topics in order to prescribe the 'healing' or fulfillment I intuitively know I need.

My hesitation in all such matters usually comes when I try to draw a boundary between subjective truth and objective truth.

Science provides a physical and chemical basis for our self-awareness, personality, and mood. But when you ask of science "Why is life?" or "Why is my mind?" you hear only silence. Science obliterates consciousness and replaces it with chemistry.

This book contradicts all the science I learned when I was at school. Darwin explains our lives as accidents-- a statistical aberration chronicled in a hostile environment.

Science rigorously side-steps accepting life as the Intelligent Design this book affirms. Nor does science give us hard evidence of any universal essence or galactic cycle for our spirit-force to reincarnate and morph us, human or animal, along a return path to our unadulterated, redemptive, and all-pervasive source.

The physics of brain chemistry might have described this apocalyptic vision as hallucination. My schooling gave no hard science at all for 'mind', 'spirit', or life itself.

Nor had I found comfort in the fact that millions of Americans read their horoscopes daily. I already assumed that science had long ago exposed astrology as a pseudo-science hoax. How could Katarina Wehrli's enumeration of similarly dubious divinations in her book, possibly help me heal myself?

In case you mistake this negative take as my opinion of Katarina Wehrli's ultimately religious book, I promise you it is not.

For I have discovered Western Science to be in every way as metaphysical and holistic at its foundation as her vision and her prescriptions inclusively summarized in this revolutionary book, its teachings echoing Hindu, Buddhist, and Taoist wisdom.

Astrology, a foundational argument of Wehrli's, is steadily accumulating the semblance of hard science, a fact that belies its pre-scientific origins around seventh century BC.

The Moon, for example, in addition to moving a hundred billion tons of water twice a day out of Canada's Bay of Fundy, directly affects the Earth's magnetic aura. The Sun's magnetic resonance vibrates in unison with the Earth's. Solar wind and sun spots are in part accountable, but resonance is also configured by planetary forces.

Such vibrations affect all living organisms to one degree or another. A miniscule external fluctuation can have a disproportionately large effect when it locks onto the same natural frequency as the affected organism. The solar system plays its varied 'symphony' on our Earth's magnetic field and everything in it.

The human nervous system acts as an antenna to detect a wide range of external vibrations, using the same axons within neurons to also respond internally to the brain's other neurons.

We are thus genetically 'attuned', individually and in an evolutionary way, to be receptive to this unique set of 'melodies' that emanate from the skies.

This is 'hard science' that parallels Wehrli's metaphysical themes. The phenomenon of ubiquitous resonance includes vibrations you tune into on a car radio, tidal tugs from the Moon, and vibrations of the hydrogen atom which a radio telescope "hears" fourteen million million million miles in space.

Every unborn child records cranial memories as it develops neural axons, responding from inside the womb to geomagnetic field fluctuations of the (planetary) environment.

Our biological evolution creates in our bodies distinctive personal clock, calendar, and navigation systems all linked to geocosmic cycles. The cycles are imprinted in our bodies over time, as though formatting a computer disc. Because of that genetic makeup our schedules need only occasional 'synching' against the external cycles that are in turn linked to cosmic periods. Such hard facts illuminate Wehrli's views.

Consider a concrete example of subconscious 'synching'. We experience "phase-locking" with sunlight. Depending on our body's rhythm our mood shifts downward by degrees during winter months. It is a "seasonal affective" circadian response you can reverse momentarily if you sit under a full-spectrum 150 watt light bulb.

Holistic resonant responses, whatever their ultimate Source described in Wehrli's book, do control our personal growth, our sexual, migratory, and other organic behaviors, as a part of universal and pervasive phenomena. Bees use the Sun to navigate a "beeline" to their hive, doing a "waggle-distance" dance to signal the distance to other bees. Dormitory women unwittingly sync their menstrual cycles into unison. Monarch butterflies cyclically increase their life-spans eight-fold to navigate roundtrips from my summer cabin to one small region of central Mexico, congregating with others in wintertime density up to five or six million per acre.

Miracles and divinations beget science facts. We have a destiny. Only the most myopic experimentalist can deny that metaphysics is irretrievably entwined in methods of Western science. No less is it part of reality and our place in the world.

All this is by way of recommending to skeptics like myself to open their minds fully to this book. Do as brain scientists did recently when they flocked to an overflow meeting at MIT to hear the Dalai Lama declare flatly how mental imagery practiced 4000 years ago will advance Western understanding in fields as diverse as psychology, cosmology, neurobiology, and magnetic resonance of subatomic physics.

5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE is the key that opens all doors., December 21, 2005

This review is from: The Why in the Road - Soul Healing for Changing Times (Paperback)

Soul healing, WOW. I've heard about it, I've read about it, but I haven't had the opportunity to know how to do it until I read Katharina Wehrli's book, The Why In The Road. Not only did Katharina's book offer a way of moving through my soul's
evolution with grace and integrity, but she also very eloquently and factually explained why we are faced with challenges that are presenting to us not only individually, but globally. I was relieved to realize that not only do we have the influences of our current lifetime including our sign of the zodiac, but also the influences of where we are in the great galactic cycle. Until now, I thought the major influences on our life was karmic. I breathed a great sigh of relief knowing this that was only a small part in the great scheme of things.

The Why In The Road is an amazing tool for the truth seeking souls who find themselves delving into the pages of Katharina's book. Each page has great meaning and depth. It is imbued with the vibration of LOVE which flows from her heart. Her commitment to her lifes purpose is evident in her sharing of this
important information. She has given us a tool to grow and expand into our true selves raising the consciousness on planet Earth. I am very grateful to her for her knowledge, her great dedication to all souls and for her LOVE. LOVE is the key that opens all doors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Transformative Thinking, December 19, 2005
By 
This review is from: The Why in the Road - Soul Healing for Changing Times (Paperback)

"The Why in the Road" leads us on an intriguing journey through mistaken beliefs to modern dysfunctional behavior patterns and their healing.It describes the faultering of natural ways and lack of harmony in recent cultural developments.
Traditions of mental segregation and unfeeling,exploitative practices direct most societies on earth.Controlling the feminine elements led to the suppression of many natural responces.They created a veil between our authentic being and our direct experience of the source.

"The Why in the Road" redirects these mistaken turns by first pointing out three ominous,yet prevalent behavior patterns.Examples of practical suggestions for self improvment inspire us to bring forth our own positive adjustments.We come to understand how the soul incarnates over many lifetimes to fulfill its evolutionary reguirements.Trama can have a lasting impact even if it stems from another lifetime.The energy of evolution requires that we purge all sickness,terror and grief held in the celular memory. In the times of increasing light and comprehension this special book offers us a splendid opportunity to forge our own destiny, to let go of redundant patterns,and to embrace a future beyond compare.Feeling and experiencing that we belong to something bigger completes the circle in collaboratin with nature and spirit.
