Dear God, What's Happening to Us? by Lynne Grabhorn

Dear God, what happened to Lynn Grabhorn?

I read the book, almost gave up half way through in shock and disbelief but out of respect for her previous books ("Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting" & associated playbook) I persevered.

I then followed up with reading the very mixed reviews on amazon.

Phew!

The book does seem to have been written in a rush, with many inconsistencies and some areas a lack of information. I believe Lynn experienced a psychic attack of some kind (or emotional breakdown) and am very surprised Hampton Roads didn't at least give the book to another of their authors in a related field to review. Robert Bruce springs instantly to mind ("Practical Psychic Self-Defense", which I edited before it went to them!) Then at least Lynne may have had a framework or context in which to place her bizarre experiences!

The message in the book is the archetypal balance and battle of light against dark. It is total antipathy to her previous work, and in this respect I was ... shocked! Gutted, even! I just couldn't believe that Lynne was raving on about all this, that this was Lynne Grabhorn... and that this book even made it to the bookshelves - truly!

Did she lose credibility for me, as a person?

On a deeper level, I do believe Lynne had some kind of archetypal intuitive visionary experience coupled with an extreme psychic attack experience (as did her friend Bailey, and we never hear what happened to her; nor why in all her vast research Bailey (or any of Lynne's spiritual friends) didn't venture into the obvious area of psychic attack!) I suspect the book was written and published before Lynne had a chance to digest and assimilate everything. Then perhaps the theme of the book may have presented as a more concise visionary journey instead of as a nervous breakdown.

Some paragraphs just didn't make any sense! Was this book even edited????

In light (pun intended) of where Lynne was coming from, she did not lose my credibility, the publishers did! I can understand the shock value of her message, garbled and inconsistent as it is, may have had something to do with this. She isn't bringing forth anything new. It certainly was thought provoking in a nonsensical twisted kinda way.... and validated quite a few things for me on a personal level... beneath the external inconsistency/technical/editorial problems within the text.

It's up to you whether you would want to read it - obviously! If so, and you can get past the mumbled higgedly-piggeldy nature of the manuscript, you might find some little pearls to take home.... that may reinforce something you already have heard about, or know ...
