My favorite read in 2026

Book cover of The Unanswered Question: Death, Near-Death, and the Afterlife

Wade Richardson ❤️ loved this book because...

More than any other book I have read, "The Unanswered Question" does the best job of triangulating the literature on the afterlife, including "The Tibetan Book of the Dead," "The Egyptian Book of the Dead," "The Swedish Book of the Dead," the NDE and OBE literature, insights from world religions, and the author's decades of OBE experience. A must read for anyone who wants to better understand the mystery of the afterlife.

What is this book about?

This book deals with the reality of our life after death, not spirit communication, but actual visits with all sensory perception in tact using Out-of-Body travel. Jurgen Ziewe has spent over forty years refining his OBE skills via a lifelong practice of deep meditation. The author projects his consciousness into parallel dimensions and non-physical reality systems whilst retaining full waking awareness throughout. He probes into the infinite vistas of human consciousness and brings back detailed accounts of his journeys and observations. The reports gathered followed a strict research protocol, where the author interviewed dead people and visited the higher dimensional…

What is this book about?

The Psychedelic Mindmeld: Telepathically Exploring Shared Consciousness

By Wade Richardson ,

Book cover of The Psychedelic Mindmeld: Telepathically Exploring Shared Consciousness

What is my book about?

An experienced psychonaut's guide to telepathically sharing consciousness

* Teaches you how to work in pairs to meld your consciousness and explore the inner universe together with the help of psychedelics

* Presents techniques for entering and maintaining a psychedelic mindmeld, including holotropic breathing and Vipassana meditation

* Looks at safe set and setting for psychedelic telepathic work, including preparations, finding the right partner, safety protocols, and potential challenges

Many psychonauts have spontaneously experienced telepathy, but how does one intentionally share consciousness? In this guide to psychedelic mindmelding, experienced psychonaut Wade Richardson shows how, with the aid of psychedelics, sharing consciousness is possible.

Drawing on years of personal experience with mindmelding, Richardson teaches you how to work in pairs to telepathically share consciousness and explore the inner universe with the help of psychedelics. He details techniques for entering and maintaining a telepathic mindmeld, including Vipassana meditation practices and holotropic breathwork, and explains what to expect during your sessions as well as presenting a map of the territory of consciousness to be explored. He also looks at safe set and setting for telepathic work, including dosages, types of psychedelics, physical and mental health preparations, structuring the session, finding the right partner, safety protocols, and potential challenges.

Sharing accounts from the many sessions he has participated in or facilitated, the author shows how mindmelders can fully experience each other's emotions, help process and release each other's traumas, jointly travel to other worlds and dimensions, and enter into the non-dual infinity of what Buddhists call "Clear Light Mind." He stresses that this process not only makes visible the shadows you carry, but also those of your fellow psychonaut. Offering guidance for debriefing and integrating telepathic sessions, he recommends treating these experiences as something more akin to a dream and, like the fluid nature of a dream, open to different interpretations.

As Richardson reveals, psychedelic journeying with a partner can help you shatter illusions, expand consciousness, dissolve our egoic separations, and enable a cooperative exploration of non-duality.
