Thread: My Big TOE (Theory Of Everything)

Exactly. He does actually introduce some meditation and mentions few ways to get into that state but his main point is that everyone has their own connection to meditation, weither it's sitting down on your floor going "uhmmm" or using visual exercises to get to that same state. If you find a meditation technique that fits for you stick to it and practise it once or twice a day, a thing I guess alot of people here already do.
I've seen that Thomas is also very careful about giving away to much information about how exactly his experience of the Big reality is. This was getting me really annoyed at first but with some reading I got it and it's actually better not to get that persons certain experience of a self-improving process like this because it could start interfering with your own process (you see only what you expect to see, not the real issue).

You can read the whole thing here:

But I really don't advise you to read it on a computer-screen... this one is bound to be read with a cup of tea, a pair of slippers and a nice blanket over your legs- while you sit in your favourite chair - and listen to the nice sound of pages being turned one by one.

Thomas Campbell give the advice to read the book slowly. Let it all slip in a bit at a time. I took 3 months to finish it - but I had some other books on the subject of OBE's, (like William Buhlmans "Adventure beyond the body) to read in between My Big Toe-sessions. If you haven't read Robert Monroe's books they would really fit in nicely because they off course come from the same "school of thought" and use many of the same terms - but Monroes books are very much about direct interaction with Non-physical-reality.
