"I couldn't in anyway explain in short what the book is about; the subject is simply too huge. But for someone like myself who has worked with beings from non physical dimensions ( either 'spirits, ghosts, spirit guides, thought energies, dieties) and also frequently with projections of humans outwith their physical constraints ( shape shifters, astral projectors, emotional vampires) it gave me words and terms to 'tag' them. It gave what I know and do some very scientific terms which as someone with a post grad science qualification, I found very enjoyable! So, I encourage you to read this to understand more about consciousness and different dimensions of thought, emotion and spirit. It is not an easy, 'fluffy bunny' read but is well written and poses many questions. ... I enjoyed especially reaching the end of the book and hearing how the author had managed to be open to his beliefs yet still live a good and loving life on the physical with his wife and children. Balance. Harmony... it can be done. He didn't sacrifice one for the other. He did it all and I applaud him because I have seen too many 'spiritually aware' people who are inept human beings. Wonderful book. I can't recommend it highly enough ."
"The book is an honest and down-to-earth account of the experiences that led Kim to his current conscious multidimensional awareness and lifestyle, and I imagine it will contain some interesting surprises for a lot of people, as it did for me. ... I can personally vouch for the effectiveness of the book in helping those with multidimensional experiences towards a better understanding."
"Very interesting & engaging book. ... A good read for anyone interested in out of body travel."
"I approached this person as someone who had thought little about concepts of the afterlife, reincarnation, spirits or anything else of this persuasion. What I found was a mind-expanding read which called into question my complacency on all of these topics, and has spurred me on to learn, question and experience more. Kim's writing is easy-to-read and enjoyable, and his personal story was definitely intriguing enough to keep me turning the pages. A must-read if you are interested in what lies beyond."
"Kim McCaul is an engaging storyteller who is also matter-of-fact in his style of writing about his amazing metaphysical journey. What I found most impressive about Multidimensional Evolution was the humility with which it is written. Rather than portraying himself as a special person endowed with mystical awareness, Kim acknowledges the reader's scepticism and encourages experimentation and personal experience rather than seeking out gurus."

Reviews by other authors
Though being familiar with the concepts of this book, what I especially like is the author's practical approach and emphasis that this is not a book of absolutes.
The autobiographical style appeals to me. Being interspersed with gems of suggestions for meditation, I think it makes informative reading for all, wherever we are on our evolutionary journey. It's a very good book for seekers everywhere covering topics such as kundalini, bi-location, projection, energy bodies, ET's dream states, being psychic, being spiritual, past lives and a lot more. (Sandra Davies, Guild of Professional Healers UK)
Kim McCaul's experiential account of life beyond the physical dimension carries a challenge that cannot be ignored, namely, by what mechanism of mind and body can such extraordinary experiences be explained? As an anthropologist, McCaul is well aware of the standard academic explanations for such curious psychic events, but when non-standard experiences erupt frequently in one's own daily life, and are intelligently attested to by others, then perhaps the standard explanations require some adjustment. McCaul 's careful, methodical and questioning approach is therefore to be applauded, for in the face of experiences that often transcended normal categories of experience altogether, he held his nerve.

About the book
This book is structured around my own journey of discovery, starting with a simple mindfulness technique I learned at a meditation center in central Java and the subsequent need to understand the various experiences this technique engendered. Initially I frequently asked myself whether I was going mad or if the new perceptions I was experiencing were real. Gradually I came to realize that they were perfectly normal. The book focuses on three of the teachers that helped open me to this broader perspective of reality. Pak Sujono, who ran the meditation center in Indonesia, despite his eclectic approach to spirituality was perhaps the most conventional of the three.
In England I met a walk-in, someone who claimed that she had not been born the usual way, but was occupying the body of another person who had returned to the non-physical dimension – by agreement. She not only seemed to enjoy remarkable psychic abilities and a unique perspective on the multidimensional nature of life, but also had the capacity to significantly alter the energies of those around her and induce profound expansions of consciousness. The time studying with her focused on the significance of past lives to our present and provided a picture of a large process of multidimensional assistance to which we can all contribute if we so choose.
Finally, I discovered the Brazilian discipline of consciousness research called conscientiology. I traveled to Brazil to study with its founder Waldo Vieira, and discovered a group of people dedicated to seeking to increase their own understanding of the multidimensional nature of the world and to make this understanding available to others through workshops and publications. In the course of this journey, I came to understand our purpose in life as being to contribute to the evolution of consciousness. What this means for each of us will vary – we are all on our very unique journeys, but we all share a common multidimensional nature and evolutionary purpose.
By describing some of my own extraordinary experiences of consciousness and the journey of discovery that allowed me to understand them as a natural part of the human condition, my intention is to provide a useful tool both for those who are seeking to understand their own experiences and for the open minded researchers of consciousness who seek to better understand the incredibly complex nature of our multidimensional reality. This book does not set out to convince anyone that my reality is “The Truth”! It encourages the reader to experiment for themselves, have their own experiences and come to their own understandings that will assist them in making the most of this current physical life-time.
