Lee Carroll, Kryéon

Lee Carroll is an American author and channeller who has written numerous books based on communications he claims to receive from an entity named Kryon. Carroll, who previously ran a technical audio business, began channeling Kryon in 1989. Kryon is described in Carroll's works as an angelic entity from the 'Source' or 'Central Sun,' part of a 'Family' including Archangel Michael, tasked with assisting humanity's spiritual and evolutionary development. Carroll's writings aim to help individuals 'ascend to a higher vibrational level,' which he equates with overall mental, spiritual, and physical evolution. He also co-authored books introducing the concept of 'indigo children,' a generation he believes represents an advancement in human consciousness.

Carroll's Kryon series explores various New Age concepts such as co-creation, spiritual contracts, karmic imprints, DNA layers, synchronicity, and ascension. He also addresses the 2012 transition, describing it as a subconscious and archetypal energetic shift. His work often touches on reincarnation, presenting it with philosophical resonance to dharmic traditions, though written from a Western viewpoint with Christian mystical influences. Carroll's later works discuss intelligent design and the future trajectory of science and spirituality. His teachings have been featured in various publications and documentaries, and he has also addressed the role of Jewish people in human consciousness evolution, describing them as a 'pure karmic group.'

Lee Carroll states that he began channeling an entity called Kryon in 1989. Initially presented as an entity from the 'magnetic service' involved with Earth's magnetic grid, Kryon is later described as an angelic being from the 'Source' or 'Central Sun.' Carroll's books present Kryon's messages as guidance for humanity's evolution, aiming to help individuals achieve a 'higher vibrational level.' This process is linked to an overall mental, spiritual, and physical transformation. Carroll emphasizes that channeled information, including his own, is subject to human interpretation and should be perceived as a tool to tune into a deeper, less literal message that transcends conventional perception. The Kryon series has popularized concepts like co-creation, spiritual contracts, karmic imprints, and the idea of magnetic layers within human DNA, alongside ascension and influences from other star systems.

The Kryon material delves into a range of esoteric and New Age themes. Carroll's books discuss the concept of reincarnation, offering insights into its mechanics and purpose, aligning philosophically with dharmic traditions while maintaining a Western stylistic influence. The 2012 transition is framed not as a catastrophic event, but as a significant shift in subconscious and archetypal energy, opening new potentials for the collective human mind. Carroll also presents the Earth as a conscious, living entity that collaborates with humanity, with their relationship mediated by magnetic field interactions. Later channelings explore intelligent design and the future direction of both science and spirituality, suggesting an integration of these fields.

Beyond the Kryon channelings, Lee Carroll is recognized for his work on 'indigo children,' a term he and co-author Jan Tober use to describe a new generation of children perceived as representing an evolutionary leap in human consciousness. Their books explore the characteristics and purpose of these children. Carroll's work has been discussed in various international publications and documentaries. He has also spoken about the perceived special role of Jewish people in human consciousness evolution, referring to them as a 'pure karmic group' with unique attributes that have historically evoked envy and persecution from other nations. The significance of the land of Israel in global energy balance is also a theme mentioned.

Lee Carroll's work and the associated Kryon movement have faced criticism, particularly in French media starting in 2002, where logical inconsistencies in Kryon's messages and the commercialization of techniques like EMF balancing have been highlighted. Publications have pointed out apparent contradictions, such as Kryon's supposed interventions in Earth's history leading to humanity's near extinction. The concept of indigo children has also drawn critical commentary. Furthermore, the Kryon movement and related practices have been noted in official reports by Belgian organizations monitoring potentially harmful sectarian groups. Robert Todd Carroll's 'The Skeptic's Dictionary' also offers critical commentary on some of the ideas popularized by Carroll and his followers.
