Collapse the World

By: James Arthur Ray

Narrated by: James Arthur Ray

Length: 3 hrs and 8 mins

Publisher's summary

Modern physics, as well as ancient mysticism, tells us that you literally create your own reality. Your reality is based solely upon where you place your attention. The new physics is proving what the mystical traditions have told us for thousands of years. And one of the practices that's demonstrated its effectiveness time and time again is meditation.

Some of the profound tools you'll experience in Collapse the World are:

How to move and operate beyond your physical body to literally increase the energy and authority you possess.

How to utilize the four elemental building blocks of your world that allow you to create anything you desire.

How to use the all-important "5th element" in your life: the element of spiritual power.

How to connect with your "Higher Council" - that transcendent part of you that has all answers to all questions at all times.

How to use a process called "etheric imprinting" to profoundly accelerate the results you produce in every area of your life.

The six different experiences you will be guided through in Collapse the World will allow you to eliminate virtually all the stress in your life, increase your feeling of fulfillment, dramatically lengthen your lifespan, and feel happy, peaceful, and content the entire time!

Collapse The World

Overpriced Guided meditation.

Why is this 2 Credits?

Why would this title be 2 credits if it is only 3 hours long?

re: Collapse the Wallet is more likely

As someone who guides meditative work on a daily basis, I hate to be to critical of the well-intentioned efforts in this recording. Still, I feel compelled as many other reviewers have already stated, to point out that this particular book is full of hype and promises, but low on delivering any worthwhile experiences.
The program glibly jumnbles traditional eastern based concepts with ideas commonly associated with Judeo-Christianity. The music track is definitively grating. The narrator delivers the program in a mind-numbingly formulaic and lack luster way, and I would have a hard time explaining to anyone what I thought I was doing when I purchased it.

WOW

Guided meditations will take you to the next level. Fasten your seat belts....well maybe just leave everything behind and enjoy the ride.

GIM with bad music

No seminar, lecture, or tangible information in this audio book. It does contain around 6 GIMs. (Guided Imagery Meditations) Intro and narration are typical to any “altered state” type audio and the “breathing instructions” are repeated on every cut. (The unexpected “snorf-haaa” (breathing technique reminder) in the middle of each exercise tends to startle the listener and breaks concentration.)

Where this well intended audio left me disillusioned is a really bad music bed for the meditations. The background consists of only three variations played on an electric piano with pad. These three patterns repeat throughout the entire audio book on each and every cut. I find myself desperately wishing for any other possible sound to break the torment of this loop.

Please don’t confuse this with entrainment music. This is not “trance” nor does it contain any “Binaural Beat Brainwave Entrainment Technologies” as would be typically found in altered state or meditation programs. (i.e., Thompson, Monroe, or Hemi-sync) It is simply a set of guided exercises. I know this because I am a composer who also writes music for entrainment.

No explanation offered for the perceived retail “value” of this collection. Maybe it’s offered to increase your intrinsic satisfaction with this month’s “free” selection.

Other works by this author seem to offer better insight into this esoteric market.

OOPS

This audio book was a lesson not to judge the book by its supposed "retail price". One might think that it would be something spectacular if it costs 2 credits for 3 hours. It's not.
