 Good meditation CD August 17, 2008
This book supplied an audio meditation CD, with the suggested words of the author on it. Great to have both the reading and instruction as well as the CD.
love the CD June 15, 2008
I love this CD. I am not typically able to fall asleep for a nap. The CD helps me fall asleep quickly. I also find this to be a great way to get 20 minutes of deep relaxation in when I want to meditate. While you are in the depths of meditation he helps you ask questions and seek answers, which other meditation CD's don't do. I am very pleased with this product.
the best part is the cd February 10, 2008
i found the book to be good, but the best part is the cd...its a 20 minute meditation guided by Brian Weiss...i hear it everyday and its made a big difference for me....once again, it is, at least for me, the cd that makes the book worth buying

 Not the good doctors best work August 7, 2007
5 out of 13 found this review helpful
While I have always been an avid fan of Dr Brian Weiss' work, his meditation product puts me in mind of an old saying about MD's: "Because they're good at one thing, they assume they can be good at everything." Perhaps being one of our leading experts on regression therapy, he assumes he's qualified to teach us all how to meditate as well. But I have my doubts, if for no other reason, than the tempo of his guided meditation CD is much too fast to be effective.
Then again, while there are countless folks in this cottage industry who think nothing of putting such "loaded guns" in the hands of unsuspecting consumers, I would have expected better from the good doctor, given his legendary experience with opening other peoples "Pandora's boxes." While I have personally never had any really negative experiences with meditation, guided or otherwise, I have certainly witnessed a few instances that were quite disconcerting to some of those involved. Two of those events occurred at what turned out, quite unexpectedly, to be the beginning of my own past life discovery process.
It was a warm spring day in 1975 when my third wife returned to our apartment from the pool where she had been sunbathing in her skimpy bikini. I could tell immediately she was not feeling well but she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong. Almost without thinking I suggested she may have picked up some psychic garbage out the pool due to her scant attire, so I suggested she sit down, relax, close her eyes and recite an 800-year-old Greek Orthodox prayer that was reputed to dispel evil and quiet the mind. Within moments she was suddenly plunged into a spontaneous psychic vision in which she saw a very old monk dressed in red robes standing to my right.
As soon as she described the monk I was immediately struck by his similarity to what a previous psychic had referred to years earlier as my "very powerful spirit guide." But before I could speak of this she reported that my features were morphing, first into a Prussian General, then into a Mongolian Warlord from the time of Genghis Khan. Next she reported seeing an inextricably terrifying amorphous blob of grayish-white energy off to my left. Needless to say, her experience was most disconcerting.
A few months later we decided to take a seminar in psychic healing given by legendary psychic healer Ben Bibb. Everyday after lunch Bibb would ask for a volunteer to stand on the stage so the class could describe the person's aura, which amounted to different colors, and everyday my wife asked me to volunteer and I refused. On the fourth day a thick fog covered everything, clearing just as we arrived at class when my wife insisted I volunteer that day or she would never speak to me again.
During the aura reading exercise the entire class reported seeing everything she had seen months earlier, and in exactly the same order and detail. According to Bibb the man in red robes was indeed my spirit guide, the Prussian and Mongolian were personas from two of my past lives, and the blob of energy was a "familiar spirit," an artificial being created during a past life of high psychic development. When asked what familiars were used for he said they were usually used as psychic spies, though he had heard of people using them to recharge dead batteries. Everyone laughed and I walked off the stage.
That afternoon, Bibb conducted us through a very deep guided meditation in which I found myself back in Mongolia, abducting a young girl on horseback whom I recognized as my current wife. None of us spoke a word as we left at the end of class, all of us still being in a very quiet state. Getting into our car I put my key in the ignition but nothing happened. Looking at the dash I realized I had forgotten to turn off the headlights when the fog cleared. The battery was dead. Without speaking a word I closed my eyes and ordered my familiar to climb into the battery. Two minutes later I started the car and drove away.
While none of these meditation experiences were "traumatic" as such, they do illustrate the kind of doors meditation can open, and are certainly nothing for the novice to play with.
For the next 25 years I continued to meditate and was continuously plagued by spontaneous encounters with "psychics" who seemed bent on answering all the questions I was too reluctant to ask about the events of these two previous lives. As the evidence continued to mount I eventually discovered my own tragic role in Genghis Khan's conquests as his nephew Yegu, and my role in Germany's involvement in World War I as its Chief of the General Staff.
As the specifics surfaced I began to realize how the karma connected with the tragic events of these prior lifetimes had in fact shaped both the events and the relationships of my current life. Almost everyone in my current life it seemed, friends, lovers, wives, business partners, had played some pivotal role in these former incarnations and had now returned to help me resolve the karmic issues, whether I consciously wanted to or not.
Amazingly, after documenting all these events in my spiritual autobiography I was even able to substantiate many of the events described through historical research. My only regret is that for too long my Guide had to drag me "kicking and screaming" just to get me to listen to what he was trying to tell me. In retrospect, if I had it all to do over again, I would call Dr. Weiss. I'm sure the whole process could have been handled a lot faster and less painfully with his help.
