Very few have the time or courage to attempt to bring multiple realities together while also redefining history. Joe Lewels has spent a lifetime doing just that, beginning with The God Hypothesis (2005), and continuing with Rulers of the Earth (2013). Now The Soul Trap explores the world's religions through ancient texts and rediscovered ancient scrolls, delving into the unseen realities of UFOs, aliens or multidimensional beings through people's actual experiences or through hypnosis. The book reveals the hidden truth that Earth is being controlled by multidimensional beings who may be trapping souls. As Rev. Barry Downing states, "the issues in this book may dominate religious discussion for decades to come." He shows that ancient Greece, Rome, and Biblical writers believed in reincarnation, and he makes clear that Jesus taught reincarnation. Special attention is paid to the Essenes, a group of which Jesus was most likely a member, and the group that hid the famous Dead Sea Scrolls at Qumran, which brought much clarity to our understanding of life in the time of Jesus whose divinity and connection with higher spiritual beings is explained. Entities known as the Watchers are mentioned in many ancient texts as well as by people involved in current alien-abduction accounts. In the centuries after Jesus, the Church tried to stamp out all reincarnation beliefs, leading to the Inquisition and the war on reincarnation. Buddhism continues to honor reincarnation, although the Chinese have long tried to eradicate reincarnation from the Buddhist teachings. Lewels explores the mechanisms through which reincarnation occurs, a story also amplified by details from regression sessions where clients were taken through their reincarnation experience and mapped out their next lives with the assistance of other worldly beings. Lewels's close friendships and connections with Dr. John Mack, Whitley Strieber, Ray Fowler, Dolores Cannon, Robert Dean and others are explored in a personal and revealing manner, which shows the knowledge, balance and courage of these great pioneers in this field. Equally revealing are the detailed reports concerning individuals whose hypnotic regression sessions uncovered long-time interrelationships between humans and non-human advanced beings from other dimensions and places. Off-planet or multidimensional beings once channeled that "no one on Earth gets the whole truth. Only by putting all the pieces of the puzzle together will the truth emerge.
