Celestine Prophecy, The: Abridged

Summary: Feel like there's something else out there? Read this!
Review: My brother recommended this book to me about a year ago, and I grudgingly read it to please him. About 3 pages into it, however, I found myself totally involved in the plot and waiting for the other shoe to drop! This book won't be for everyone, but for those who know that there's something else out there than just traditional religion and beliefs, this is a metaphysical journey you'll have to take for yourself!

Summary: Laughably Stupid Book, and Philosophy
Review: This book is so dumb I wanted to toss it out after the first 20 pages, but forced myself to finish -- a sort of intellectual self-flagelation as it turned out -- because I could not believe such a poorly written piece of crap with such a transparently self-centered philosophy could be such a big hit, and thought it had to get better. It didn't. Not only that, there's actually a part in the book where the author gets basic astronomical facts laughably wrong, and has the moon rising on the wrong horizon. What a poor joke this book as. Too bad he keeps writing.

Summary: A mind-exploring, very different book
Review: There are few books that I have read that have actually altered the way I look at things. However, after reading the Celestine Prophecy, I can't stop thinking about the concepts in the book. I know longer believe in chance encounters.

Summary: Words of Wisdom
Review: Much is taken into consideration in this wonderful book within the circle of our friends. The motive here is a healing point with the results to grow spiritualy. This book is written without technical confusion and is easily understood without complication. Should we digest wisdom for spirit..or ignorance for ego? Ego is a seeker for fault that carries a bag load of ill thoughts, and its likelihood is to blemish the good works of others. Thank God that His strength within overcomes the strain and weaknesses of others.

Summary: 6,000,000 copies sold! And it's still crap!
Review: "The Celestine Prophecy" is so poorly written, I would have been embarassed to be identified as the author. If Redfield's ideas are so vital, original, and important, why couldn't he at least have hired a ghostwriter to come in and clean up his abysmal mess of a manuscript? The ideas themselves are a salad-bar mishmash of various New-Age and pseudo-Eastern sputterings, all of which I've seen before. My six-year-old niece has made finger puppets out of construction paper that have more depth of character than Redfield's stick-figures. It's simply horrid. "New-Age Half-Baked Rampantly-Eclectic Spirituality for Dummies", it should be called--or, better yet, "Watery Gruel for the Soul"!

Summary: Amazing spiritualism
Review: An amazing book which sent me on a path of spiritual discovery and now there is know turning back. This is one beautiful book that I shall never ever forget. If only it happened for real, but in sense it is a true story.

Summary: Mystic's of God
Review: The mystic's of God come forth beyond the dark ages where some prefer to stay in fear to learn where past mistakes have been made. A golden tread of truth seals the meaning of God through these writers to lift the vail above our sight. One must be open with God to see and know reality. Then is when we recognize what is true and false. It is from within the truth is revealed.

Summary: Mystical Poop
Review: This book is a trip down the road of modern mystical malarkey. If you're into crystals and vibes, go for it.
