Ist dieses Buch ein Projekt der Aliens?Klara Wolf (Pseudonym) und ihre Familie hat bereits seit langerer Zeit auergewohnliche Erlebnisse und Kontakterfahrungen mit einer nichtirdischen Intelligenz. So hatte es die Autorin nicht nur mit den inzwischen allseits bekannten Grauen zu tun. Auch Blonde, durre Arzte, Reptiloide, eine riesige Gottesanbeterin (Mantis), geist- und energieartige Erscheinungen und Men in Black begegneten ihr. Nachdem Klara Wolf sich an den fachkundigen Autor und Hypnosetherapeuten Dr. Marcel Polte wandte, nahm sie dessen Ratschlag an, ihre Erlebnisse genau zu notieren. Auerdem wurden zahlreiche Zeichnungen uber das Geschehene von der Autorin und ihren Tochtern angefertigt. Im Laufe der Zeit wurde der Autorin klar, dass die Fremden ihr ganz offensichtlich Dinge zeigen, die sie fur die weitere Entwicklung der Menschheit fur wichtig erachten. Somit ist dieses Buch einzigartig und auch ein Projekt der Aliens.Der Entfuhrungs- und Kontaktfall Klara Wolf ist in seiner Ausfuhrlichkeit und den vielen einzelnen Facetten wohl einmalig im deutschsprachigen Raum. Allein der auerst gut dokumentierte Fall von Betty Andreasson, der von dem US-Forscher Raymond Fowler uber Jahre hinweg begleitet und in mehreren Buchern festgehalten wurde, kommt dem nahe. Dieses Buch ist ein Muss fur jeden, der sich fur das UFO-Entfuhrungs-Phanomen interessiert. Das vorliegende Werk vermittelt tiefgrundige Weisheiten. Doch nicht nur in und zwischen den Zeilen. Wer sich mit Zeit und Offenheit den Zeichnungen widmet, wird darin sicher auf versteckte Botschaften stoen. Dr. Marcel Polte

TIEFSTE DIMENSIONEN DES WISSENS Wie entsteht Existenz? Wer schafft Leben und Welten? Vielen Menschen gilt als Antwort: das war der Urknall. Ganz anders sehen es seit Urzeiten die Legenden und Marchen vieler Volker. Ihnen zufolge entstand die Welt nicht durch ein physikalisches Zufallsereignis, sondern wurde durch Magie oder Gesang aus dem Nichts geschopft. Unsere Tiefenerinnerungen sagen uns ahnliches. Im Versuch, Sinn und Zweck des eigenen Lebens zu begreifen, stoen Tausende Menschen in ihren MindWalking-Sitzungen auf groe und grote Zusammenhange. Auch die Entstehungsgeschichte des Universums und von Existenz uberhaupt erschliet sich. Demzufolge ist unsere Welt nicht durch einen Urknall entstanden, sondern auf spiritueller Grundlage. Sie wurde buchstablich ins Leben gerufen und wird es immer noch, denn auch heute noch entsteht Existenz permanent aus dem Nichts heraus. Wie Geist zu Materie werden kann und welche Grundgesetze dabei zum Tragen kommen, davon handelt dieses Buch im ersten Teil. Der zweite Teil vergleicht die Legenden zur Schopfungsgeschichte mit den ahnlich marchenhaft klingenden MindWalking-Befunden. Wir alle haben als geistige Wesen eine Rolle dabei gespielt, sei sie klein oder gro. Wir tun es immer noch. Welche Verantwortung damit einhergeht, wird in diesem Buch deutlich gemacht. Leserstimmen: "Die Erkenntnisse aus vielen tausenden Stunden geistiger Erkundungsreisen in wenigen Gesetzmaigkeiten zusammengefasst. Damit wird eine neue Sicht auf die Welt nicht nur greifbar, sondern auch besprechbar. Ein Fundament fur wirksames und befreiendes Training, Coaching und Management!" Wie ist unsere Welt entstanden? Wer oder was sind wir? Welches Potenzial steckt in uns? Das steckt fur mich da drin. Alle Phanomene und Komponenten von Existenz und Bewusstsein werden hier erklart. Besonders die Entstehung von Lebewesen hat mich beruhrt, gerade dass Pflanzen und Tiere eine Personlichkeit haben weit uber das Biologische hinaus. Wie das Universum und der ganze Rest verkorkst wurde. Und wie wir es anhand der Gesetze des Seins wieder in Ordnung bringen konnen. Erhellende Fakten, um sich selbst naher zu kommen und sich und sein Umfeld zu kapieren. Die Urmutter aller Science-Fiction-Filme mit ihrem Kampf zwischen Gut und Bose.
