Excellent

Revisado: 11-09-24

I had a few spontaneous lucid dreams in my young adult life and then practiced some techniques I learned from Steven Laberge years later with mixed results. I recently listened to a title on Tibetan dream yoga that was very good and have become reinspired. I put half a dozen new titles in my wish list and started with this one, not expecting it to be as good as it was. On one hand, I have so much to work with I don’t really need to listen to any others right away. On the other hand, this book has given me several more resources that I am looking forward to also learning from. What an inspiring topic and very nicely handled. Again, excellent!

Good material, terribly read

Revisado: 11-08-24

Some very interesting research and personal stories, a few mistakes, such as calling the book Iron John by Robert Bly, Ironman by John Bly. But the real problem with this audio is the constant mispronunciation. It sounds like bad AI that can’t tell the difference between when lead should be sounded as leed or led (as in the metal), which comes up frequently, including numerous other examples—and the basic concept of proper inflection and timing made it very difficult to finish. Better to read the book for oneself.

Bad title and a waste of time

I wanted to like this talk, having just finished Buber’s I and Thou. Next to nothing was said about him or anything else.

Can I review my own book?

Well, aside from some quality control / audio engineering issues that could be cleaned up a bit in places—especially in the earlier poems—I LOVE the way it sounds to hear these pieces up here on Audible. Wow

Nothing "super human" about it

Basic at best, yet somehow condescending Could hardly get through it. Glad it was short. Still a waste of time and money. Yuck!

Horrible.

Platitudes, empty statements, references to lame-sounding products on his website, and he even said, "When trying to memorize the common math equation pi equals mc squared, use image of a pie..." What a moron!

This audiobook was far better than I thought it would be. Potentially life changing. Bravo!

Quality Control Alert.
Thomas Pynchon and Dick Hill are a perfect combination of excellence. The problem is that the download was VERY messed up. Listener beware, if you end up with the same download of seven parts, most of them ten hours long--and I can't imagine why it would be different for me than someone else, though none of the reviews I read before purchasing mentioned this problem, which baffles me. I've listened to quite a few Audible audiobooks before and have never seen anything like this.
All of a sudden you are hearing what you heard several hours earlier, with no indication. At first I thought the player had bounced back on the progress bar, but when it happened again I was paying closer attention and knew it wasn't that. I bought the ebook so I could follow along to confirm and clarify. Sure enough: WTF?
For a long and somewhat challenging book with a lot of characters, it is especially difficult to follow when full of recording discontinuities; frustrating to try and find the proper place to pick up from, which, once I figured out the problem, turned out to be the beginning of the next downloaded section, thus, the story should only be fifty-something hours long, not over sixty.
I LOVE the audiobook otherwise. Too bad about the terrible engineering, but it should be easy to fix in post. Maybe Audible could give me the credit back for suffering through it, giving you a heads up, ands spelling this out for them.
