Book Review: Jinny Jana’s Giant Journeys – Possibly the Best Lucid Dreaming Book for Children

Ego Death: The Science, the Myths, and the Absolute Nonsense
Ego death. You’ve heard of it. You’ve seen people claim they’ve had it. But what the hell is it actually? Some claim it’s a spiritual awakening, others treat it as a badge of honour, and a few even talk about it as though it’s a one-way ticket to godhood (which seems more than a little arrogant).
