3 First Contact - Adjusting to the Weird - Harrie Vernette Rhodes

How does life transition from a small town music teacher in a "The Music Man" sort of world to learning there is more to life than she ever anticipated? Harrie Vernette Rhodes continues her story, now telling of meeting Dr. Walton to get help with anxiety only to have the well-respected physician perfectly describe her deceased father, John Henry Rhodes, and deliver a message. This is the story of her initiation to healing and an introduction to automatic writing as she learned to focus her mind.

This book "In The One Spirit" was written about my great-grandmother so it has always been a curiosity in the family. Was it possible that she could do the many things that are talked about in later chapters. The magical parts, the healing and her many experiences talking with the spiritual realm are told in the same matter of fact way that she tells of riding in the horse drawn wagon with her father to deliver medicines to people.

The autobiography of Harrie Vernette Rhodes. What if you had an usual story like this in your family history? Few of the incredible family stories make it into a book that brings the events and most importantly the context to life. The most interesting part to me is that she believes that everyone can learn to see and do incredible (as in unbelievable) things if they put aside some of the concepts of modern views of reality. I am amazed at how many of the things she says are highly relevant today as a way to reduce stress in your life among other things. More on this as we get deeper into her story.

The co-author Margueritte Harmon Bro brought the first viral attention to the American seer Edgar Cayce, "Miracle Man of Virginia Beach," published in the magazine Coronet in 1943. After that, she heard many stories of physics ad healers. Despite this, the author found only two people interesting enough to write about - Edgar Cayce and Harrie Vernette Rhodes. This autobiography of great-grandmother was book published in 1951.
