Absolutely Fascinating!

If you are looking for a real page turner, and are interested in various metaphysical phenomena, then I would highly recommend this book for you. Spiritwalker is about the true story of a series of visions the author, Hank Wesselman, experienced while living in a home on the edge of an active volcano in Hawaii. Through these visions, Mr. Wesselman realizes that the young man he is seeing is actually himself - 5,000 years into the future! This book takes you a journey with the author...a journey to find himself, by himself. This is truly a fascinating journey, and it's written in such a way as to pull the reader in every step of the way. Overall, I found this book to be quite thought provoking, and to be perfectly honest, I literally could not put it down! I definately give this book a 2 thumbs up!

Spiritwalker Participant-Observer

Hank's first book was a journey that perked my interest (in 1996) when his experiences mirrored puzzling sensations of sleep states I was experiencing (minus the sex). If you are open to the messages you can see and experience the wisdom as it unfolds. Reading this book I had a familiarity with a lot of the information he was processing. This book may not be for everyone, or I should say, it is not for the closed mind or "quick to judge", if you refuse to put aside layers of societal brainwashing and criticize at every step, you will not be ready to receive the gift of shared wisdom. I speak from growing up with traditional teachings of a Mohawk Nation, and often times, my formal anthropological education clashed with my cultural beliefs. Spiritwalker allowed me to fill in the gaps that a formal education often tries to dispel over traditional teachings. Thank you Hank for the wisdom shared and gratitude to the Hawaiian Elders and the Ancestors for their validation, also the Descendants who helped the process, and the Divine Spirit who guided. Not forgetting to mention, in the book the perceptions of "human nature" people experience, often makes people question their own survival in the Human Race. So some people choose therapy, and/or any array of other vices to dull their senses. I like how the "shared wisdom" sheds light on topics such as addictions and other human nature fallacies. In Spiritwalker, I found affirmation in the shared wisdom ... the answers that are attainable if we re-learn "living" without the fear-based mentality and destruction we "pre-set" for ourselves. Onen ...

Humbled with gratitude

All I can give is praise and deep thanks. Had it been written as a science fiction novel (as the author once considered doing), it would have been one of the best I ever read. But having the author's own thoughts and insights and feelings about it interspersed was breathtaking. It verified everything I have known "intuitively" about the meaning of life. And I am so happy about the picture given of this wonderful Earth's future. I look forward to reincarnation at that time; it sounds like heaven to me (the cheerful, peace-loving, nomadic hunter-gather tribes anyway ... not so sure about the Hawaiian chiefdoms). I look forward with great anticipation to reading the next two books in this trilogy.

Wow!

What an adventure! The images in this book make the greatest pictures in the mind. And I've thought about them many times since reading the book. I bought several copies of this book as gifts for friends so that they could share the adventure. Did it really happen, or was it all a dream? Or should I say, will it really happen? The part that takes place in the future is intriguing. I simply couldn't put the book down. I highly recommend it.
