I’d heard about this book for years but hadn't really considered reading it until it was recently recommended to me by a friend and therapist who had performed this "technique" on me. Like all good book choices, the pleasure in reading it had a lot to do with timing – and it was definitely the right time for me.Starting off on the right track with a sad (but then inspiring) story about a hopeless patient who goes to see a Chiropractor, we are taken on a journey of tremendous healing. I was hooked from the beginning and the book basically flowed like a novel from then on (as mentioned in a review on the first page).
Like the title says, it’s about reconnecting to a higher source and, like the previous book I mentioned, evolving to develop other senses - be it for healing, artistic expression, or anything else that needs a touch of the divine. The author doesn’t try to explain what this source is, resisting being bias to any religion or dogma (although he does reference scientific ideas) but rather encourages readers to be open to the magic of the universe and life, in a childlike way, to see what will be brought about.
Pearl also mentions a few times throughout the importance of looking at yourself as the answer and to stop trying to collect things (techniques, objects, etc.) which validate you and your abilities. We are all superior to most of these tools.
