As you may recall, I first mentioned the work of David Wilcock in an earlier post on Project Avalon/Project Camelot, noting that Bill Ryan and Kerry Cassidy apparently think very highly of him. In fact, on introducing him at her 2008 Project Camelot L.A. Awake and Aware Conference, Kerry referred to him as a "really stellar individual."
I was, therefore, very pleased to receive a review copy of his latest book, The Source Field Investigations: The Hidden Science and Lost Civilizations Behind the 2012 Prophecies. It is a thick tome of a book, over 500 pages long with almost 50 pages of notes and citations -- not for the faint of heart, but well worth the effort if you have a big appetite for scientific conjecture and experimental results.
I must say, it is not an easy book to review and/or perhaps I'm not the best person to review it. First off, it is crammed with the results of numerous experiments in the physical sciences while my own background is in the social and life sciences. Although it is all germane to his concept of a Source Field, a "...hidden intelligence -- a living energy field the entire Universe is built from," it, of necessity, jumps around all over the place, touching on a myriad range of topics.
I have a feeling that the book probably mirrors his mind and, if you have a mind like his, you will probably take to it like a duck to water.
Alas, my mind works in a more linear fashion. Which brings me to the final point. Although Wilcock has an apparently insatiable appetite for scientific data and experimental results, he is not a scientist. He wasn't trained as a scientist, he doesn't think like a scientist and he doesn't write like a scientist. So although he has an encyclopedic knowledge of numerous and diverse scientific fields, he doesn't handle them in what I would consider a "scientific manner" (which, granted, some of you might consider to be slow, plodding and unimaginative).
I have to admit that I am also just a little put off by his assertion that "it has taken me over thirty years of dedicated research to assemble this grand collection of data." I say that because he was born in 1973 and was, therefore, 38 years old when he penned the book in 2011. You can do the math. Although I wouldn't at all doubt that he evinced an interest in these subjects at the tender age of 8, "dedicated research" seems a bit of a stretch to me.
So, all of my quibbles aside, what does Wilcock have to say?
He acknowledges that many researchers have investigated this "unseen Universal force and given it their own names." For his part, since he sees it as a "fluid like energy" that is the "source of all space, time, matter, energy, biology and consciousness in the Universe," he calls it the Source Field.
In trying to elucidate such an all- encompassing concept he necessarily draws on an incredible array of subjects, including consciousness, hypnosis, psychic healing, the Holy Grail, Sheldrake's morphic field, galactic alignment, dodecahedrons, lucid dreaming, pyramid power, the Illuminati, stargate portals, torsion fields, the precession of the equinoxes, the astral body, ley lines, Zoroaster, and our old friend, the Mayan Long Count calendar.
He also introduces subjects that were totally new to me such as time slips, vaccuum domains, tau space, fish falls, the DNA phantom effect, the Rainbow Body, space domains, and virtual inertia.
On far more familiar ground to me, he references several people and topics that we have covered in previous posts. These include:
- Remote Viewing
- Rick Strassman and his work on DMT and the pineal gland
- Geoff Stray's encylopedic work on 2012
- Near Death Experiences
- Crop Circles (and, more particularly, the 2008 Avebury Manor circle)
He also covers a topic that we will be introducing in a future post, the fascinating findings by the author of Journey of Souls, Michael Newton, a regression therapist who has done the most extensive work on the "between-life-state," that state we inhabit between incarnations.
