Chapter One

The Discovery

I had been saying the words.

The Kjrsos Experience.

Thinking it was separate somehow from the book, So That We Can See. How could I have been so silly to miss how they were always meant to be the same thing, or at least part of one another? So obvious once you see it. But it is amazing how many times I had to say it before I realized it.

The book is not to be read but to be experienced.

Words that I kept saying without realizing what they meant. But now I do. A book that is meant to create an experience. An experience that becomes a part of you, leading to change and evolution.

How did I finally realize it? When I saw what happened to those who read it.

Especially when it happened to someone that I don't think any of us would have ever thought capable of this. And when you find out who later on, I think you will be as surprised as I was when you discover the power of that experience on humans and beyond.

How is it possible that a book can bring to life a new level of awareness, dare I say consciousness?

Usually, when you read a book, you cuddle up on the couch with a cup of hot chocolate, and if you are enthralled, you read to the end. But knowing the ending made it clear why this book might not be one you could sit down with in an afternoon and have a gentle read. There was a demand here, a challenge, work the book had to do so that you could understand what was to come.

This was why I knew enough to articulate that the book was to be experienced and not read. Finally understanding that for you to have the complete experience that was waiting here for you, it was important that you take the time that you need, that we all need, to get through it. And it was only then that we could come out the other side different than when we went in.

There is no rush. Come back when you are ready — tomorrow is a good word for it.
