The book opens a bizarre world where everyday reality reveals facets which you are not familiar with. Many issues of day-to-day life are perceived in an absolutely new way.
We all, in one way or another, find ourselves trapped by circumstances. Desires go unfulfilled, dreams never come true, whereas our worst expectations justify themselves, as if to spite us. Can’t we turn this around? It appears that we can. And you’ll learn how. Transurfing is the technology for controlling reality. You don’t have to “attain your objectives” as everything will happen in accordance with you desires without any effort. All goals are reached without you.
Unbelievable? Well, you won’t be asked to just believe it as the author presents specific methods that allow you to verify everything yourself. And only then will your ordinary way of looking at things fall apart. In spite of the completely fantastic nature of the ideas presented in this book, they have already found practical affirmation. Those who have tried Transurfing, have experienced amazement, verging on ecstasy. The world surrounding transurfers changes in an inexplicable way, literally before their very eyes. And here there is no place for mysticism as everything is absolutely real.
Readers say: “It seems we knew it intuitively before! And here, at long last our gut feelings were put into words and our vague ideas proved.”

This is the first English translation of the first volume of Reality Transurfing, the top non-fiction bestellers in the world in 2005 and 2006. It describes a new way of looking at reality, indeed of creating it. It provides a scientific explanation of the laws that help you do this, building up a scientific model, speaking in detail about particular rules to follow and giving important how-to tips, illustrated with examples.

With this type of books one needs to be very careful. Although perhaps these books are careful with those who touch them. I was lucky to be invited into the world of esoteric literature with a welcoming smile of "Reality Transurfing" in the original Russian language. Once you dive deeper into this universe, you cannot help but reread the whole set of books over and over. I advise you to read it, for those who are ready to read.

I am not a fan of new age self-help books; in fact, I loath them! Most of them are not much more than rehashes of old tiresome stuff (visualization, positive thinking, meditation, lucid dreaming, etc, etc.) that are endlessly re-packaged to generate cash and, in some cases, to gather worshippers to play guru games.

I suppose that is why I had refused to read Vadim Zeland for a while even though his books were recommended to me by people whom I knew to be intelligent and inspired. As soon as I ga ...more

The theory of Transurfing by Vadim Zeland is both intricately illuminating and controversial. The theory is framed on the concept of alternative realities which he dubs the Space of Variations. In essence he explains that the concept of reality is a personal choice. We choose what our reality is based on the mental and physical energy we project. Two individuals can see the same event, thing or person and have different perception of the reality. Neither is either right or wrong, they are just i The theory of Transurfing by Vadim Zeland is both intricately illuminating and controversial. The theory is framed on the concept of alternative realities which he dubs the Space of Variations. In essence he explains that the concept of reality is a personal choice. We choose what our reality is based on the mental and physical energy we project. Two individuals can see the same event, thing or person and have different perception of the reality. Neither is either right or wrong, they are just in different life lines of the space of variations. In his theory, we shape our reality based on our actions and our mental energy or thoughts. Positive mental energy leads us to what we considered a "better" life line while negative energy does the opposite. These concepts are common knowledge to most people but where his theory really brings something novel is what he calls "pendulums". The pendulums in our lives are the things we put importance to. The more importance we give to a relationship, an event or a thing, the more that pendulum influences our reality. His take on living a "happier" life is to reduce the amount of energy whether positive or negative towards the pendulums in our life as they are steering our reality towards them and makes us dependent on the wishes of those pendulums. To be free, we require to reduce if not completely eliminate the importance we put into these pendulums in our life. Whether is our careers, our love relationships, our friends, our social life or any other activity we focus on; we should not focus our energy into these tasks because we are feeding all our energy into them and it only benefits the pendulum itself and not ourselves.

The key concept to release ourselves from the hold of these pendulums is "importance". And here is where I find his theory controversial. Although he claims that we should not be indifferent the fact is that to reduce importance is to be act indifferently. In practical terms, is to practice detachment from the things we do and think about. And although this technique works by reducing your expectations on the outcomes of what we pursue, whether it is a career goal, an event or a relationship, it also creates an emotional void towards the matter of interest. A simple example that illustrates this concept is how a computer works. Computers have no concept of importance, they process logical constructs that provide optimal solutions. Sure they follow logical instructions that can set priorities but they cannot deviate from that recipe. The outcomes of computing processes are optimal and free of outside influence. In essence a computer has no pendulums to answer to. Humans on the other hand, we are emotional beings. It is what makes us human. Even the most logical of us cannot avoid feelings and emotions with very rare exceptions. Importance is a key element in human behavior. That is why we love our children, we set give them the importance that they require to be a good parent. That is why we love our significant others. Because by putting importance towards the people we care about, by being passionate about those other people in our lives, it drives us to make their lives happier. These pendulums as the author explains limits our "freedom" of choice and limits our space of variations. It is a reality we construct by choosing to put importance into these relationships. Evidently, to be indifferent about these relationships will free us from responsibility, from caring, from emotional turmoil and from negative experiences. But how do we grow as human beings? How do we become better people if not by the experiences that these pendulums can teach us? Why do we need to practice indifference to be free? It is my belief that indifference and lack of passion, in particular towards people is why we live in a world where people become more selfish everyday. Where love towards other is shunned. It is the reason why lots of people live their lives, day to day, floating like a leaf in the wind, to see where it takes them. Going from one thrill to the next in pursue of fleeting emotions and experiences without building deep connections to other people. It is the reason people judge quickly, move on quickly and live fast and forget faster.

In summary, the book has lots of good practical suggestions to live a happier life. The theory has very good logical recommendations to see the world from a different perspective. It is incomplete on the treatment of importance in our lives. ...more

Some time ago I decided that the religion I was born into (catholicism) is not exactly what I believe in, deep down. I can't say I moved far in my search for philosophy/religion that would suit me, but comparing to most of the stuff I've read, this book is the closest to my beliefs.
I can't accept the concept of an intelligent deity hanging somewhere above us, nor the idea of everything alive being nothing more than a bunch of cells working together.

Best book. Some of the book highlights:

1. Just ask yourself whether you have achieved anything by fighting the world? Everyone has to decide for himself to continue acting in the same way or adopt a different approach. Spend your entire life fighting and struggling and achieving and going nowhere. Wouldn’t it be easier if the world came to you on its own especially since all it ever does is manifest your own choices. But making a choice is not the same as wishing for something.

1. Just ask yourself whether you have achieved anything by fighting the world? Everyone has to decide for himself to continue acting in the same way or adopt a different approach. Spend your entire life fighting and struggling and achieving and going nowhere. Wouldn’t it be easier if the world came to you on its own especially since all it ever does is manifest your own choices. But making a choice is not the same as wishing for something.

2. Pendulums get their energy from not only their adherents but their most adamant opponents.

3. Just think how hard it is when something is bothering you to take your mind off of it and focus on something else. Feeling guilty is another way of pendulum to force energy out of you.

4. Habits function as a switch that sets reactions in motion. For example, getting irritated or getting worried is similar to reacting to a provocation. You know that negative thoughts and actions don’t lead to anything good but you still make the same mistake.

5. Refusal to fight with the pendulum. The more you try to fight the annoying things in life, the more actively they pursue you. Do the exact opposite, quietly accept pendulum as something given and an unavoidable evil and then leave.

6. The main thing is that if your thoughts are preoccupied with the object of your feelings, the energy of your thoughts will fix on a certain frequency and you will be captured by a pendulum and transported to a corresponding life track where the loved or hated object exists in abundance. If you don’t want to have certain thing in life, stop thinking about it. Pass this particular thing by indifferently and it will pass from your life.

7. If someone is annoying you and you can’t quiet that person simply refrain from reacting to his provocations. Ignore him. He won’t leave you alone until you stop giving him your energy. You can give energy directly by fighting with that person or indirectly by silently hating him. To stop giving him energy means to stop thinking about the trouble maker all.

8. Either don’t react at all or react inappropriately. For example, you can meet annoyances with false enthusiasm. This is how you will extinguish a pendulum.

9. Make the following substitutions: fear - confidence; gloom- enthusiasm; resentment - indifference; irritation- joy. If you play the game this way, the pendulum will not stand a chance.

10. There is another method of gently extinguishing a pendulum: if someone is bothering you or making a problem for you then imagine what that person needs and then imagine having that thing that he needs (health, confidence or peace of mind). Also learn to distract yourself from any problem that they are bringing. From the beginning, refrain from putting your head in their frequency and then imagine them getting exactly what they want. Visualise that this person gets what they want. The interesting thing is that this person will later have a friendlier attitude towards you. He will never be able to guess why he is feeling comfortable in your company. Let that be your secret. ...more
