What spare time?

It occurred to me that I should mention the various books I've been reading and other sources of inspiration. I have a couple of friends that have more knowledge and experience with this than I do, so I look to them for advice on where to turn, but then I also poke my nose into everything that interests me.

I'm currently reading a book by Maureen Caudill "Suddenly Psychic: A Skeptic's Journey". I had barely started it the other day, not even through the first chapter. But I like the scientific approach, especially in the discussion of brain waves. I remember she had mentioned something about a hemi-sync seminar or something. Turns out that my meditation instructor plays hemi-sync CD's in class. The process uses different frequencies for left and right ears so that your body creates a third, harmonic brain wave, which helps you achieve the meditative state. This is pretty cool, so I ordered a few of them.

Even prior to this I read a few books by Whitley Strieber (of Communion fame) on spirituality (for lack of a better description). These books are not fiction: "The Key" and "The Path". I need to re-read both of these. "The Key" described what I felt to be true, and I had thought on my own. I had never read anything that expressed this opinion about us, and god, and being part of god. It goes in depth about who we are, why we are here and what we need to do. It motivates me to make a change.

"The Path" will take a lot more studying for me to understand, it refers to the Tarot and your life's true path. I think we have a true path, and we need to follow it or we will be out of sync with ourselves and not feel centered. This book describes the path to ascension.

I also just finished a book by John Edward, the famous TV medium, discussing how he does what he does and what happens when he gets the information, even when he isn't "on".

I'm also in the middle of several books, including two Edgar Cayce books... I have several on my shelf just waiting to be read as well.
