5.0 out of 5 stars
Did Michael Schuster REALLY channel messages from Hitler????, October 7, 2003
This review is from: Conversations with Adolf Hitler, 1992-1994 (Paperback)
I'm giving this book 5 stars for being well done in its genre, NOT
because I necessarily agree with the content. I already devoted an
entire chapter ("Did the Soul of Hitler Repent?") to this book and its
claims in my own published work, "From Ashes to Healing: Mystical
Encounters with the Holocaust" (available here on Amazon),so I'm not
going to re-hash all that in this review. Suffice it to say, if this
material is indeed the voice of Hitler speaking from beyond the grave,
then he still has a lot of serious soul-searching to do.
The most
interesting part of the book, to me at least, was the description of the
self-made isolation "bunker" that Hitler's soul shut itself up in for
decades. If, like me, you believe that there is a "life review" after
death and if, as so many near-death experiencers (NDE-ers) have
reported, this review makes you face all the pain that you have caused
to others, then it is perfectly plausible that Hitler was terrified of
his personal Judgement Day after death. At that point, the channeled
Hitler seems genuinely repentant. I found myself wondering: What if
Hitler had had an NDE during his lifetime on earth? Would he have
changed his behavior? Probably not. As the book progresses, it becomes
clear that he is still in "denial" and making excuses for all the
horror that he caused in his life on earth. The chapter on "Why the
Holocaust" is filled with repugnant "blame the victim" material -- the
"bargaining stage" of recovery -- where Hitler tries to find some sort
of karmic justification for his behavior. He never gets beyond that
stage in the book. At one point, the "Conversations" claim that the
Holocaust victims were in altered states of consciousness in the camps,
and therefore did not feel the pain of the torture. Try telling that to
the living survivors.
Regarding format, Schuster's
"Conversations" are well-edited and readable. So much of the New Age
channeled material reads like ponderous gibberish, because the
channeler(s) regard every grammatical error and idiosyncracy of speech
as if it were sacred writ, never to be corrected. Not so with Michael
Schuster. Either he channels in near-perfect English, or he took the
time to copy-edit his material into a more literate format. That's why
he gets 5 stars from me, even though I highly disagree with much of what
he (and Hitler?) wrote.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A rare spiritually powerful book, July 6, 2009
This review is from: Conversations with Adolf Hitler, 1992-1994 (Paperback)
This channeled book is rare among channeled books in that it explains in
simple terms subjects such as; life in the physical plane, life in the
astral plane, why do beings incarnate on earth, what is the nature of
karma, why would a spiritual being "volunteer" to become a victim in a
Holocaust in a manifested reality upon the planet Earth, how is reality
created on Earth, on the astral planes, on other planes of existence
within God's overall creation, and why there are no victims incarnate
upon earth playing out the earthly drama we call "life," etc.
Michael
Schuster is a brilliant individual I've had the opportunity to meet
some years ago. He has done an excellent job in preparing this book for
presentation to the planet.
Truth is available on the planet.
Importantly, first a person must desire to know the truth and not some
fabricated illusion designed to enslave the masses of humanity in a
state of confused ignorance so that the few have less trouble
controlling the many.
To any seeker of truth, this book is highly recommended.
