Superb presentation of New Earth principles

William Gammill is a gifted writer and mystic with a rich inner life which includes a pipeline to dictated material from multiple sources and visions that he describes and interprets in this book, The Gathering. He is psychically attuned to a much bigger world than most of us live in. His first person account which begins with the events of April 23, 1996 are spell-binding and magical. During a fifteen day period of "events: dreams, visions, visitations, call them what you will" his consciousness was changed forever. MUFON people would probably call him an experiencer and would do well to read the book, particularly the chapter called Message from the Greys. Do not make the mistake, however, of pigeonholing this as an ET book--It would be more properly called a New Earth book nowadays, which the author calls the New Day. This is not a simple-minded beginners book, the advanced subjects discussed will challenge sophisticated readers and stretch your conceptual boundaries so much that you may have to read the book more than once to really absorb and integrate at the full depth offered. That does not mean the book is hard to read-the author has a fine sense of humor and a humble nature. Just because the author has a friendly writing style, don't ever get the idea that the subject matter is passé, the content needs to be taken very seriously--this is a prophetic work and details the evolution of a new species of human on a new planet with a giant consciousness leap from third-dimensional to fifth-dimensional. The author is what might be called an early bloomer into many facets of the new consciousness and gives his bodily symptoms and resulting effects. We're not talking a fuzzy, wuzzy "Nostradamus" style of presentation, it is meaty, detailed with a kind of clarity that most people do not know exists. As a matter of fact there is so much information that the affect can be dizzying unless you stop at the end of each chapter and let it soak in. You will see many mysteries of the New Earth scenario unveiled here. If you can read this book without laughing and crying then maybe this is the wrong book right now, but someday soon you will really need this information. The purpose of his visitation is "the removal of con¬ceptual and emotional blocks that prevent each of us from knowing the God within; and to bring a new state of awareness into all human beings who are able to respond and are willing....It is about becoming responsible, awake, and equal to all that exists in the universe." "Only fear can hold you back."

Stirred, Not Shaken

The Gathering is much like it's namesake, a wonderful cocktail party with multidimensional Friends from all levels of Being. It's more than worth a read if only for it's distilled and refined explanation of a "Holographic Universe", something I've always had trouble fully assimilating in my own mind, despite constant direct experiencing. The dry wit and tongue in cheek moments of the book keep the pace rolling, while reminding that life is supposed to be a fun ride, (even if the "fun" is more the manic kind, and the laughter erupts from realizing the absurdity of life and self). Where else could you read "When I came out [from the dentist's office] God told me to steal both books. I did..."? A good book with many "re-member-ances" for anyone tap-dancing on the wobbly fences of their reality or sanity. Just because you're crazy, doesn't mean it's not all real. Get this book! And for a real mind-blower also get It's Time to Remember: A Riveting Story of One Woman's Awakening to Alien Beings. Two different yet perfectly alligned perspectives of dealing with the "too muchness" of awakenings through alien encounters.

Your Personal Reality Determines What Is True For You

I read the book at the same time I was getting to know the author personally in Costa Rica. The book would lead one to believe the author is 'way out there', but in actual fact he is quite grounded, level headed, and intelectual. What impressed me about the book is his general style of writing where he said things to the effect that 'this will be true for you'...'or not'. The bottom line is that we all have choices. Choices to believe or not to believe. And that is the essence of our existence - what we ultimately BELIEVE to be true, IS true.

The Gathering

In 1996, William Gammill experienced contact with otherworld beings. The channeling lasted for approximately fifteen days, during which time he took copious notes. He describes his experiences and what he learned from them in The Gathering, his fourth book. He says that "although [his book] begins with an encounter that can only be characterized as `alien,' the theme is not alien contact. The theme is human consciousness and transformation." The basic message that "The Brothers" gave Gammill is that earthly humans are part of a grand experiment. Our purpose is to learn how to recognize the God within each of us. This requires change, from the level of DNA outward. This change is occurring now in each of us. Like most changes, it can create emotional and physical distress, even disease. Gammill says that we have free will, but it's guided by our souls. "Everything a person experiences," he says, "is determined by his or her soul, which reincarnates from one body to the next...Personal responsibility, not chance, determines your fate." Between lives, the soul goes to a place of light, where it decides what you will experience in the next lifetime. All experiences have the ultimate goal of healing the human race so that individuals can increase their awareness of God. Once awareness and surrender is achieved, which will take thousands of years, individuals will "ascend" to rejoin with God as one entity. "Compelling and beautifully written, The Gathering can help us understand our alien neighbors and ourselves in a new and positive way." It's essential reading for all those who have wondered why we are here.
