Becoming Supernatural

Good product

Every year as far back as I can remember some fashionista makes a pronouncement, the coming season's brown will be the new black! Every year I cursorily search in vain for evidence of a brown revolution. Similarly, every time a consciousness guru projects a utopian vision, especially in their Afterword, I am immediately sucked in with anticipation that a seductive assault on my believability isn't too far-fetched! After reading this fascinatingly absorbing book I am like glue to its contents, feeling in the realms of a mystical rite of passage; for Dr Joe is doing his level best to make the esoteric commonplace, and the supernatural the new normal for anyone who cares to venture forth into dimensional areas of personal growth work. Of course, the sheer number of meditators that could make the quantum journey a critical mass of change for the planet is still some way off (a chapter outlining Project Coherence - or the 'superradiance effect' - might have a thing or two to add here). However, Joe's forecasting, compared to other wild visionaries, does seem to be rooted less in mystical musings. Why? For three main reasons: technology, technology and technology, which Dr Joe has grasped smartly, creatively, and most of all, practically. Firstly, the internet's powerful connectivity is facilitating the dissemination of spiritual ideas at a rapid pace - nonlocal quantum models of entanglement in the unity field, once considered voodoo magic are being explored openly as people find out for themselves this hocus pocus works. Secondly, we are living through the golden age of neuroscience and epigenetics that have given modern neuro-researchers tools of unprecedented power to probe the workings of the brain-body connection and how it can give rise to the mind; and with it, our thoughts, feelings, soul, and identity. Thirdly, bio-interventions are changing the game, be it entrainment machines, biofeedback instruments, and measurement analysers (of neurochemicals and EMFs). 'Becoming Supernatural' avails of such advancements, for instance with brainwave activity scans, GDV measurements, heart rhythm patterns, and fMR imaging adorning the centrepiece of the book (as colour plates). Tech-laden information can provide a leg up the mystical ladder into areas of proficiency once considered impossible without a dedicated course of yogic mastery. One of Dr Joe's main assertions is spending time in Q5 (quantum fifth-dimensional healing) can biologically upgrade the autonomic nervous system through mystical states, since these will ultimately pay off in the 3D physical space. One's neurology becomes accustomed to a new higher form of reality: "tuning into the energy of the future in the generous present moment you are drawing the future to you from a past-present reality to the future-present reality." Therefore, Q5 power has the potential to transduce identities. Mystics like Eckhart Tolle have achieved such states of heroic enlightenment through a spiritual emergency (psychological breakdown), that indelibly left them in an altered state of higher consciousness. Dr Joe's change curve is more gradual, supplemented by online courses, his live events and regular meditations. For some of his attendees bona fide miracles do occur; experiences which are evidenced as case studies throughout the book. Dr Joe's healing rationale rather reminded me of Joseph Campbell's monomyth cycle (or the hero's journey): "A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder. Fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won. The hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow 'boons' on his fellow man."(Wiki). The three-dimensional world surely needs boons to be bestowed upon it!? I might suggest...yes as a primer... to have read, arguably, the more ethereal 'The Power of Now' (Tolle's first book of the late nineties) described as a "sort of New Age re-working of Zen" which highlights a similar role - to Dr Joe - of the pain-body. This "consists of trapped life-energy that has split off from one's total energy field and has temporarily become autonomous through the unnatural process of mind identification." 'Becoming Supernatural' offers a tried and tested way for many to raise their vibrations. Stand-out chapters on Heart Intelligence, Quantum Time-Space and the Pineal Gland tie together the learnings previously achieved by the practical methods introduced at the outset for reconditioning the body to a new mind. By comparison this is not a book "awash in spiritual mumbo jumbo" and "unhelpful for those looking for practical advice" (criticism levelled at 'The Power of Now' by Time Magazine).

''Becoming Supernatural" is a powerful work for anyone standing at the edge of their own transformation. Not just curious, but ready. It challenges you to look directly at the version of yourself that’s been shaped by survival, fear, and unconscious habit, and it hands you tools to move beyond that with intention and clarity. Dr. Joe Dispenza integrates deep neuroscience with spiritual mechanics in a way that demands your engagement. He doesn’t offer surface-level inspiration. He offers a method, a framework that insists on your participation in your own expansion. The book walks you through practices that are both accessible and profound, especially the meditations, which are central to shifting the internal state. What struck me most is how he speaks directly to the parts of us that have been dulled by repetition, routine, and unresolved emotion. It’s for those ready to rewire it from the inside out. A necessary read if you know, deep down, that you can no longer pretend to be who you once were.

A very interesting read.I just wish the print was a little larger for me

This book is largely about the amazing benefits of meditation, and will be of great help and encouragement to many people. However, Dr Dispenza goes to great length to justify his findings and conclusions to the scientific establishment. But this is a largely pointless exercise. In any case, trapped by their certainty, it is doubtful that ‘hard-bed’ scientists will be convinced. For example, he refers to material (if mysterious) explanations as causes for various miraculous healings. Such as radiation of energy from the heart. But this sort of quasi-physical explanation is absolutely unnecessary. That is not to deny the effects he describes are absolutely true. But their causes and means do not have to be based in physical reality. Dr Dispenza also subscribes to the dual wave/partical nature of matter, but even that is now being brought into question. In his paper ‘Wheeler’s Delayed-Choice Gedanken Experiment with a Single Atom’, published in Nature Physics—May 2015, Professor Andrew Truscott states, “The atoms did NOT ‘travel’. It was only when they were monitored, at the end of their ‘journey’, that their wave-like or particle-like behaviour came into existence.” This accords with the metaphysical view, that (in this experiment and others), the projected particles do not actually ‘travel’—any more than those which appear beyond the barrier in the quantum tunnelling effect really ‘tunnelled’. Rather, they ‘emerge’ at their targets, but always in a manner consistent with the route they seem to have followed. It seems sad that those like Dr Dispenza and Greg Braden, who are doing a wonderful job of opening our eyes to the miraculous potentials of the mind, still need to involve quasi-physical causes for the miraculous effects they describe. This is completely unnecessary.

Wonderful book for someone who wants to understand the power of meditation

I have already purchased this book multiple times. Once you read it you can never go back to sleep

I am in the middle of reading this book and it is simply amazing. I think it is by far the best of his books but that is mainly because my understanding of his work is growing considerably, and this book fills in some of the gaps. I initially read Breaking The Habit of Being Yourself which I found very eye opening. I then read You Are The Placebo which I thought was even better until I started to read this book. I have personally had a couple of experiences after doing his meditations where I have felt the energy move within my abdomen area where I have had health issues. My anxiety is disappearing, things that used to bother me don't seem to bother me anymore and I genernally feel calmer and happier on a daily basis. I have been doing the meditations for 2 months now. I tend to have a habit of reading self-help books then moving to the next then the next. But I committed to myself this time that I would only read Dr Joe's books, and once finished I will start reading them again. So that is my promise to myself if i want to see real changes in my life. I find that if something happens and triggers a stress response I suddenly remember Dr Joe's teachings which allows me to calm down and choose different thoughts. And the only reason for that is because I keep reading his work. I personally recommend reading his other 2 books before reading this one, Breaking The Habit and You are the Placebo. I have also since been to his workshop which has given me much more of an understanding and I plan to attend his weeklong retreat this year. I hope this review helps anyone who is thinking of getting into Dr Joe's work. I personally think he is phenominal and will go down in history as one of the Greats!
