got my books again :) Far Journeys is the 2nd book Bob wrote. I read all 3. not sure if there was a 4rth in the making?   the funny thing is I don't remember anything I read..its all brand new!  The Monroe Institute was first named the Whistlefield Research laboratory  had 3 isolation waterbed booths, 2 offices, a research room and a control room and a briefing room, west of Charlottesville VA. he changed it to TMI for purely title issueing ease purposes.

I highly recommend this book for all those who have had at least one obe. and even if you haven't, it's still very good easy to relate to writing style, and Monroe is not adverse to listing even experiences which he is not able to clarify for us, not just the phenonmenal experiences which were conclusive but the confusing messages as well. I think that is blunt honesty speaking. I cannot help but admire honest people who do not try to impress you with big words and lengthy conjectures..Monroe simply relates his story and lets you decide what it's about.

Actually, Whistlefield was a separate location in VA, more directly west of Charlottesville, near Afton, VA.
It's where Bob originally had his research center, and it had the 3 isolation waterbed rooms you mention, with booth 2 being the favorite of many explorers.

Later on, Bob bought a large parcel of land near Faber,VA and that's where the current TMI is located.
Since it was a new purchase, he would refer to it as "the new land" and that became how the area is referred to today.

This was confusing to me also while reading the books, but when I was attending a program at TMI, one of the trainers explained it to me.

thanks BobK nice to have people from TMI drop in. my pleasure. love, alysia

Greetings,

Bob, do you or any other TMI history fans know if Anna Anderson Manahan, the Anastasia Romanov imposter, was ever involved with Whistlefields or TMI, when she lived nearby?
I wonder if they ever helped her use spiritual connections to try to prove her links to the Romanovs.
