"Certainly a challenging and,exciting book, and although I have participated in Monroe's research and had many of my own out-of-body experiences, I could barely put it down." -- Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, M.D., author of On Death and Dying Ultimate Journey charts the area that lies "over the edge," beyond the limits of the physical world. It presents a map of the "interstate" -- the route that opens to us when we leave our physical lives, with its entry and exit ramps, signposts and hazards. It tells how Robert Monroe found the route and traveled it, and uncovered the reason and the purpose of this pioneering expedition. It is a journey that reveals basic truths about the meaning and purpose of life -- and of what lies beyond. Ultimate Journey is the masterwork of a daring and original thinker and explorer. ROBERT A. MONROE founded The Monroe Institute, dedicated to education, exploration, and research into practical methods of accelerated learning through expanded forms of consciousness, in the 1950s. All three of his books -- Journeys Out of the Body, Far Journeys, and Ultimate Journey -- are regarded as' classics.
