I'm a little bit upset by this: http://deepersecrets.com/its-here-guerrilla-qa-part-ii/
It's a book (part 2 of a series) about moving from mentalism or stage hypnosis into flat out psychic readings. It's being sold to magicians as a way to drop the tricks and get into the "real deal."
I know we sometimes walk a fine line when we set out to perform "miracles" for entertainment and I know some in the audience will believe outrageous things (Houdini de-materialized to perform his escapes), but this offering seems like a recipe book to become Sylvia Brown.

I'm curious to know if other magicians here find this as distasteful as I do.

Carlzen posted that you could start a religion with this and was gently chided for using this cliché. In fact you could. At minimum the work in here on contacting the dead using Millard Longman’s variation on “Have Séance Will Travel” could be a foundation. The energy work reading methods in this book are simply wonderful. I have always thought of energy readings as interesting but lacking in a “because” link or good structure. The specific approach used in this book made me change my thoughts on this. Frankly it is very strong work. The sitter will feel the energy. It definitely is not for everyone. |
