Professional academic people are afraid of destroying their reputations and careers by even considering that there is such a thing as the paranormal or psi, much less writing about the phenomena from a personal perspective. For those reasons, Bruce Olav Solheim, who holds a doctoral degree and is a former Fulbright Scholar and Professor has waited until retirement is imminent to write this book. In addition to his new book, Dr. Solheim also teaches a popular Paranormal Personal History course at Citrus College in Glendora, CA.
Paranormal is usually defined as something beyond the range of normal experience or scientific explanation. Parapsychologists, who aren’t deterred by skeptics calling their discipline of parapsychology a pseudoscience, have successfully studied many paranormal phenomena, including: telepathy, precognition, clairvoyance, psychokinesis, near-death experiences, reincarnation and apparitional experience.
Timeless: A Paranormal Personal History tells the story of one man’s travels through the paranormal universe and out the other side. It documents 34 incidents of paranormal events in his life: telepathy, telekinesis, ghosts, demons, guardian angels, precognition, near-death experiences, and more. As Solheim says in the beginning of the book: “It’s not that I believe in ghosts, it’s that they believe in me, so I’ve no choice.”
Engrossing and highly entertaining, join Bruce Solheim in his journey while making it your own. Timeless offers a message of encouragement for others to share their stories of the paranormal and to be assured that there is a life beyond this one and that we are, indeed, timeless.
