Had near death exp at 7 and another one during WWII. Went on to become MD and shrink after WWII and had further understandings. Eventually ended up in 12 step which became his teacher. Wrote Power vs FOrce in 95 and followed up with "The Eye of the I" in 2000+/- and finished with I  Reality and Subjectivity 2003. In the last book which is mostly Q and A he admits meeting with Muktanada and Ramesh Balsekar and both of them verfied and validated. He also allowed that it took almost 10 years of prolonged silence ( he quit his practice and withdrew to Sedona AZ) before he was ready to talk about his standing. I found all of his books to have a number of gems in them. He also set up a scale of Enlightment which appears to be quite usefull since on his scale it extends from a nominal value from 700 to 1200, Pretty broad range and a lot of insight in the third book about that range and the cast of characters that play in it. Tom T Very interesting, thank you. Can you share anything further about his scale of enlightenment and how it goes?
