When I first read a book this type I really believed it is true. Then I found an another one, and another and now these. It seems like
so many entities and people from the future contacting humans, that
I am waiting for my contacts so I can also write few books about it.
Good one!
Believe me, i've read several types of these books, but can say that this one is different. It took me a while to figure out what's going on. It imagination against Reality. Anything goes. There is no limit to the amount of BS allowed to keep us from figuring this out. It's our imagination against our own Reality. It's effective because we are complicit in helping it. Each man has ulterior motives that are initially allied with the imagination and it's values. It takes a while to overcome this.
Yes, i've read some very impressive, authoritative sounding books, channels, spirit guides, all that. These i now consider relative to imagination, and may indeed describe the works of the imagination, but always in terms of "reality". At worse, they serve to DELAY the realization that it is all of it is BS. At best, they may serve to enlighten minds that have been to some very dark places, who need a rope to be thrown down the well they've fallen into.

From one of the critiques:
"fits the classic pattern to a tee. It too is a story of advanced spiritual beings physically appearing to someone and giving him a special message for the world. It too has sold lots of copies and led to a lucrative speaking career for its author. It too has gone over big with the masses"

These people are bitter and jealous because they were working with this kind of information long before G. Renard came onto the scene. And everybody thinks they are important enough to have their own personal guides or channels. G. R had no such aspirations, and was picked because of an important connection to one of the two beings that began to visit him.
They are basically accusing him of completely making this up, even though he has stuck to his story for all these years. I suppose that's possible. But let me tell you why i don't think it is. I just don't think G Renard matches the kind of person who would be interested in that. The guy was a professional guitar player for years. I was a guitar player, and i know that we are all honest guys, even Slash!
Also, so what if it sounds like what happened to Joseph Smith, which is really the nearest comparable experience. Even then, Smith did not have two beings showing up together "in the flesh" on a regular basis, like this. And you know what, i actually believe something happened to Joseph Smith. Unfortunately, i think he was a willing accomplice/victim (depending on how you want to look at it) in a great imagination's attempt to deceive. After all, his question was, Which church should he go to? All of the above? None of the above? I think he was ripe for psychological manipulation because i was approaching it all wrong.
And for that reason, maybe G. Renard is honest enough, but deceived. What i have done is taken the message and considered it on it's own merits. And its the message that im responding to...that rings *true* for me.
