Rating:  Summary: The truth about our spirtual nature! Review: I rate this book 5 stars only because of the magnificent, liberating ideas that are introduced in regards to the current financial system we operate under and the true spirtual nature of humanity. The difference that these 2 ideas have and will continue to make in my life are incredible. And it will do the same for you!
On the negative side, some of his ideas about former and current Presidents and other world leaders, who are really Reptilian aliens that can shapeshift into human beings, hob-nobbing together with their group of "zombie sex slaves", which they rape frequently,etc.,threw me off a bit!
This is really a different book. I would read one thing and be so inspired that I wanted to kiss him on one cheek, and then on the next page, I would read something so "out there" that I wanted to slap him on the other cheek. That's the kind of book that this is!
But, remember "you don't have to throw away the baby with the bath water". This book is well worth reading for the profound spiritual ideas that will enable you to gain control of your life once again!
Rating:  Summary: Another fantasitc Icke 'bible!' Review: I would strongly urge anyone, particulary those who are not familiar with Icke or his work to read this book. There is no doubt that it will change everything you thought you knew about the world - and yourself. Excellent beginner Icke book, anyone can pick it up and read it and be changed for life. Definatly not as comprehensive as Ickes other books, but perfect for beginners. Icke adds some delightful humour and and some fantasic insights that will make even the most stubborn and skeptical reader think - a lot. For Icke fans, his brand of humour is revealed in greater detail in this book without the book ever losing its sense of urgency and seriousness - fantastic stuff all-round. The book is definatly a small price to pay for your freedom - you wont look at the world the same again. A must for anyone who wants to open their mind and hearts :)
Rating:  Summary: Pure religion is Love in action Review: I've read several of Icke's books, all informative and highly entertaining, provided you're open minded and compelled to venture into the exploration of "reality", or speculative reality.
What exactly is consciousness? Reality? Sanity?
The 'white-coats-and-guess-work' people know about as much as YOU do, okay; they only *appear* more accomplished and "official" as they grope blindly in the dark! :)
As for David Icke, he openly states, "I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything. What you believe in is your business, not mine." Fair enough. His message is quite simple actually; everything we need to know and feel is within all of us, and always has been.
The aspects of Icke's books I enjoy the most are those views that come straight from the heart, and most of this book focuses on just that. Whether or not you agree with the Illuminati-bloodline-shape-shifters grinding life into dust and steering us towards centralized New World Order or not (he doesn't delve into much of that in this book)..Icke offers many other views on the mass communication breakdown and general disconnect that much of humanity sadly experiences, often as a manifestation of the Few who rig the game, resulting in the "herd" policing itself. He offers insight into how people can strive to overcome self imposed psychological and emotional dilemma's we needlessly imprison our existence in.
Although "I Am Me, I Am Free" would not be my recommendation for the Icke book to begin with ("...And The Truth Shall Set You Free" is a good place to start) it is indeed a unique little number - small in number of pages, BIG in message of spirit!
Read alongside Carl Jung, Philip K Dick, and Herbert Marcuse.
Rating:  Summary: You May Say He's A Dreamer Review: This book covers Icke's personal philosophy more and the supposed evidence of the nefarious doings of some of the powerful and famous less.
The philosophy seems to be a throwback to the sixties and seventies; and Icke comes up with thoughts that seems to smack of a "child of the Seventies". (Break out your bong and John Lennon albums and this will all start to make sense, man!) He seems to be one of these romantic utopian dreamers who believes in absolute freedom and equality. I don't necessarily believe that because I believe that one can be more or less free; it is not an either/or question to me. And I don't believe in absolute equality either. So I did not resonate with what he was saying, but it is an interesting discussion about these concepts.
I particularly balked at his ideas about marraige and cursing. He seems to want the divorce laws loosened until you can finally get a drive-through divorce. "Oh, I'm not feeling love anymore and I have weak and selfish character. I have to get out now; forget the kids, and move on" is my parody of what the consequences of his thoughts would lead to. It seems no one has sense of duty or the ability to tough things out these days, so I suppose many would agree with him. But I've never been married, so I can't speak from experience.
In regard to cussing, cuss words to Icke are just sounds and we should not be offended by these sounds. We choose to be offended. While I can say that people are probably too easily offended by other things, I don't think the world needs any more nasty-mouths. I work at a place where people cuss all the time; they can't seem to express themselves in any other way. Actually, I wish I had never started cussing myself, because it seems once you start, you can never stop. It's like the "like" and "you know" words that like you know, you can never, like you know, quit saying, you know? I recommend a return to Victorian manners instead, or at least a slight return.
The problem with giving people absolute freedom is that it's like giving people a license to kill, cheat, steal, and pollute. I definitely believe that we are all depraved worms and our righteousness is nothing more than filthy rags. People abuse the freedoms they have and you can only have freedom if you are responsible enough to handle it.
In regard to absolute equality, people who believe in such a thing deny reality when there is evidence to support that we are not all equal in ability, particularly in regard to race and gender. That sort of radical and often tyrannical egalitarianism has already been tried in communist states, and it didn't work, to put it mildly.
I found a couple of his concepts interesting though. He said that the evil doers that we denounce are actually a mirror of ourselves and if we loved them enough we could redeem them from their evil doing, fighting hatred with love. If we fight fire with fire, all we get is more fire, so we should not choose revenge as automatically as we do, when confronting evil. Since we all one, Icke states, the evil they do is a part of ourselves. --Trippy.
Regarding fear, Icke states that we should not fear things and give them energy because whatever we imagine will eventually come to us, if we think on it with enough persistence. He gives an example of how he feared dogs, and how mean dogs would come into his life while his friends who didn't fear dogs didn't have his problem. But I can also think of times when bad things happened, and I didn't think them into existence.
He also stated that our world is a virtual reality illusion in which we come back over and over as different players of different races, playing villians or heroes. --Wow, man. I'll have to ponder that!
He says that he had a spiritual transformation from an extra-marital affair and therefore he advocates at least a halfway-open marraige so that we can have similar transformations by producing the kundalini energy that we may get from a sexual encounter. And besides, why hold ourselves as separate, when we are all one? His wife seems cool with that. --That's just great, man! That is one of the cleverest excuses for infidelity that I have ever heard! I'll have to remember that one. --Maybe his wife will pick some of that energy herself or maybe something less desirable! If you could somehow get as much kundalini energy in this manner, instead of boring old meditation, and then be able to keep your wife from picking up this energy from some nasty guy, you would have a good plan.
Anyway, it was intellectually stimulating trip, man. Even though sometimes I think it's all foolery.
Rating:  Summary: Quite possibly one of the best books ever written. Review: This is a fantastic read... A confirmation of many things I believed for a long time and there are many more things that hadn't occured to me that seem plausable, even probable after reading. While I'm not so sure about chapter 4... The rest is a stunning piece of work. Fascinating, accurate, and it appears to be the absolute truth - in my life anyway. This is one of Icke's strongest books yet! Hihgly recommended!

Rating:  Summary: An Introduction To David Icke Review: This is a smaller size book (compared to the other books by David) and this is a definite "introductory" book to David's ideas and his philosophy. This book will ease anyone into to his other works without blowing somebody's "reality circuit". The ideas presented are simply and easy to understand and you might find yourself saying "hey, that's true!". One of his classic examples is featured in this book about the herd of sheep being compared to the human race. Quite eye opening if you've never heard it before.If you'd like to expand you view of life and what's happening on this little planet, but haven't read any other David Icke books...this is the book for you. If you've already read any of his later books (and the truth shall set you free, the biggest secret, children of the matrix)...then this is a book for you only if you are a "big fan", if not, skip it.
Rating:  Summary: Life Changing Review: This is one of the most life changing books I've ever encountered. It took me on a journey through multiple dimensions of life. It begins by detailing how most of us have been indoctrinated since childhood and have lost ourselves in the process. Icke then goes on to tell us about a global conspiracy that is deliberately doing what they can to strip us of our ability to create our own lives as our unique selves. This is followed by some very grizzly, hard-to-believe negative data about what has been going on all over the world. Then comes the good news. David goes into detail about how we create our own lives and our own experiences. This is followed by a very high level view of the world, all of existence, and the forces that are shaping the world toward a wonderful outcome. David invites us all to choose our own path and contribute to the high dimensional influences that are dramatically increasing the love in the world. This book inspired me to immediately start operating in a new, much more relaxed, loving mode. I'm finally using information I've known for years. There is no need to wait. We can fully live our unique lives immediately. Everybody wins.
Rating:  Summary: Icke Lost His Marbles Review: This made my laugh and cry. Where to begin?
Icke surely lost his marbles, scattered all over the place.
Be wary of a man claiming to know the truth, for he surely is a madman!
There is no one right way in this world, there are many path's you can take in this world. Do you think following this madman will give you peace of mind?
I bet people who read this book don't have the most succesfull lives going on. Feeding the minds of cynics without any trust in this world is easier than stealing candy from a kid.
He says the truth sets you free, but it seems more like it will drive you insane.
He claims to know the truth? Did YOU objectively test this information he presents with reality? And even if you would try to, it would be a lifelong process.
Do not follow a madman's dreams for you will surely find yourself falling into the abyss.
Practical guide to sanity:
1. Stop watching television.
2. Start working out, exercise, bodybuild, feel good.
3. Realise that it's pointless to think about all the things going on in this world. Don't bother thinking about it, or trying to change them. Not many man have been able to change the world, you will not succeed either.
4. Go out, make new friends, have sex with some hot chicks, call and old relative and do some crazy stuff.
It's your life and every second spend reading this madmam's work is precious time wasted.
OK FEELING SANE AGAIN?. Can't believe I found this book in a 2nd hand store.
Pick up your marbles, life your own life.
Rating:  Summary: I am mental: Please help me! Review: When someone claims to make the world a better place simply by positive thinking then New Age clap-trap alarm bells should start ringing in the readers mind. Unfortunately for mental defectives like Icke, positive thinking and visualisation techniques do not transform an individual nor do they manifest as better outcomes for society as a whole. Clearly, Icke either knows this or is unknowingly spreading disinformation in order to confuse and brainwash all the masses who wish to "escape" from society through some twisted form of "higher purpose".
The only way to get through this earth plane is to live each day as it comes and do the very best one can - and to avoid as much as possible any individuals who are resentful and deceptive.
The reader should know by now the types of people I'm referring to. Too many sheeps in wools clothing have been let loose from the mental asylum lately, and Icke is just a recycled form of this very disease.
