An account of a universal stream of consciousness. This speaks to me more than church ever did. You will have a strong opinion one way or the other.

Truly bizarre. A transmission from a more conscious manifestation of our being, giving us guidance for the coming evolutionary leap. As weird as it is presented, it echoes what has been said by the great world religions, but with clarity. It aligns with Mayan and Aztec calendar systems, and provides illumination of the meaning. Finally, it is coherent with the great teachers of our time, and the modern interpretation of our century and 2012. Truly, a work mandatory for anyone with real interest in what will happen next.

I finally got around to reading the third book in KenCarey's "trilogy" in the 2014 or 2015, and there are some phenomenal insights about what's happening in the spiritual evolution process of the earth and humanity. It's a truly beautiful book. Many amazing predictions that match with what I've seen, but he's writing about these things in the 1980s. . . I just reread the book, slowly, in 2024. It is underlined and highlighted massively!!

A gentle, clear alarm clock to awaken the sleeping who are ready to hear it. It was consciousness changing for me, and I'll definitely be reading it again with a pen to underline and write about specific things that light me up.

I stayed up all night to read and re-read . This book is so life changing ... very spiritual and poetic. I now have an understanding of things I have wondered about. I will continue to re-read .

It took me awhile, reading just a little each night. Needing to digest and think about what I had just read. At this time we all need to open our minds and hearts to allow peace for all.

The most inspiring book ever. It confirmed what I felt since I was young. Poetry for the soul.

This is the third and final book in The Starseed Trilogy. The information shared was less purely Christian based and more mythological, but the lessons and guidance would not be out of place in any New Age bookstore. I did not find anything in the book that was new; however, this book came out in 1995, and a lot of what was written had been written elsewhere before. I do not doubt the writer’s sincerity, and I think that the lessons shared would be useful for anyone reading the book or wanting guidance.

ANOTHER BOOK OF PURPORTED EXTRATERRESTIAL ‘TRANSMISSONS’
Author Ken Carey wrote in the Preface to this 1991 book, “After a decade of hearing the term ‘channeling’ bantered about, I am convinced that it does not apply to the process though which I access this information… There is no trance involved… no loss of consciousness… I am fully present throughout the experience... Whether or not you accept my own premise that the current of consciousness recorded in the following chapters is of angelic or extraterrestrial origin should in no way affect your experience of this book. The perspectives presented here are designed to stimulate your own processes of thought and understanding. Their purpose is catalytic---to trigger memory and awaken higher-dimensional sensitivity.” (Pg. xii-xiv)
He recounts, “Between the years 1967 and 1969, conceptual communication with incarnate human beings was possible on a large scale for the first time since the fall itself. The first in this present series of conceptual transmissions occurred then. All around the periphery of historical power the consciousness of the world began to change rapidly, but the center of old-world power still held. International bankers, multinational corporate executives, and leaders of governments and world religions were still surrounded with ego defense mechanisms impervious to our awareness.” (Pg. 51)
He states, “By their nature spiritual organizations are superfluous. They seek to do what is already done. A successful church is transitional, a stepping-stone toward consciousness, not a rock upon which generations duplicate the mistakes of the past. To orient your life around a structure of some other human being’s understanding is to worship a false god.” (Pg. 60)
The says, “The fully activated human sensory system is synonymous with your spirit’s presence and occupies the same space. It extends beyond those portions of it whose vibratory rate is slow enough to attract the molecular structure of your nervous system. Its spatial reach extends outward from the physical body to include a larger vibratory field, of which the etheric antenna is but a part.” (Pg. 93)
He suggests, “A mother never knows exactly what hour she will give birth to her child, but she has a ‘due date,’ an approximate time when the baby is expected and will most likely be born. For millennia now there have been those in various traditions of both East and West who have known that the earth has a due date sometime during the second decade of the twenty-first century. Though there will be much awakening of individuals prior to the first unified movement of the awakened planetary organism, this movement… will occur in a single moment.” (Pg. 125)
He predicts, “By the year 2011, humankind will have reached its due date for the cohesion of its collective consciousness. By then the telepathic frequencies of the rising awareness will converge within a more numerous, aware, and interconnected global population. The awakening itself will signal the MILLENNIUM of Christian prophecy. It will begin when informational human biology activates the necessary global circuitry, the even anticipated in some traditions as the extension of Thunderbird’s wings.” (Pg. 159)
He recounts, “I speak to you during these transmissions at times through the perspectives of the many , through the angelic beings who know their source in my wholeness. At other times I speak to you as the One, as your Creator and your source.” (Pg. 170)
He suggests, “The unexpected delay in achieving human cooperation has contributed to, and in some cases been responsible for, the appearance on this world of imbalanced predatory species in both the animal and vegetable kingdoms. Many first-stage developmental processes, some spanning millions of years, were set in motion eons ago with the intention that long before they entered their final stages, conscious human beings would have awakened to guide them to completion. When these developing life forms and planetary systems entered their final stages and conscious human direction was not present to guide them as planned, their first-stage programming was in many cases unable to keep their development in a creative stage.” (Pg. 197)
While his prediction for 2011 seems to have been unfulfilled, this book was quite popular back in the heyday of the ‘New Age’ movement.

Certainly one of the most formative books in my spiritual awakening. It's written in such a beautiful way. Almost poetic.
The chapter on language really concretized my belief that books, where once promises of expanded imagination, are now blocks to further expansion of my consciousness. Language now feels limiting where once it felt expansive.
I would say people who find this book don't really need this book at all. It is only confirmation of what they already know inside themselves but perhaps have forgotten.
It served as a reminder for me to put more faith in the forces of the universe and stop clinging needlessly to certain structures in my life. It is only through letting go of all the worldy tethers that one can really come to know God and the eternal support that exists for them.
Reading this book is such a highly personal experience that I can't possibly formulate an objective review given that everyone will see what they need to see, but I will say that it is the best book in the realm of metaphysics that I've read so far.

Inspiring book! Things haven’t played out (yet) the way Ken envisioned in that book, but I loved the premise and his work continues to inspire me creatively today.
