Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

You have never read a book like this before — a book that comes along once in a lifetime to change lives forever.

In the rain forests of Peru, an ancient manuscript has been discovered. Within its pages are 9 key insights into life itself — insights each human being is predicted to grasp sequentially; one insight, then another, as we move toward a completely spiritual culture on Earth. Drawing on ancient wisdom, it tells you how to make connections among the events happening in your life right now and lets you see what is going to happen to you in the years to come. The story it tells is a gripping one of adventure and discovery, but it is also a guidebook that has the power to crystallize your perceptions of why you are where you are in life and to direct your steps with a new energy and optimisim as you head into tomorrow.

Synopsis:

"The Celestine Prophecy" continues to cause a worldwide sensation. Its nine insights into the spiritual awakening of the human race and its purpose on the planet have taken the world by storm. Now--for the first time since its hardcover publication--"The Celestine Prophecy" is available in trade paperback.

Celestine Prophecy is an acceptable text and a very good treatise on some esoteric concepts that the catholic church tried very hard to bury, due to thier HIGHLY abusive and negative impact on indigenous cultures. Mr. Redfields' work has way too many interactions with COMPLETELY unrelated authors to be imagination. The correlations between Milarepas' works and Carlos Castenadas' teachers are really not something he could make up AND be able to sustain the same tone and color of his authorship throughout this whole series(I have read and will be commenting on all 4), the prejudice/prescientic writing would have given itself away.
Mr. Redfields' text is a very good work and, though many will CHOOSE to not believe in the concepts he lays out, I for one took the work at its' word and DID the exercise he learned how to do on pages 53-58 of this 1st book. I WAS VERY SURPRISED THAT IT WORKED. That simple. You don't have to believe me, try the reads I have commented on and correlate them for yourself, read this work and decide for yourself.
If you have any esoteric knowledge or education/desire, this book and its' 3 companions, are VERY necessary reads. The adventure quality is not too bad, that is yet again, an other way of verifying that what he is writing is his own true experiences. It's not sensationalized nor is it designed to "pander" to sell the text. It does have the bent of religious overtones to it, but Mr. Redfield cannot help where he comes from and the way his "filters" cause him to "see" the world, or how he writes. Read the text as an eyewitness accouunt on a somewhat visible concept, do more research on your own, FINISH the whole series, then Form your own belief. A previous reviewer, Sam from GOODREADS, seems to be disappointed with this text, for some reason. It would be better for any educated reader who is studying, ESPECIALLY Esoctericists, to read this whole series for themselves. It is a very good source of independent verification of other authors' studies and works.

This is a wonderful book for any one. Just the 9 insights should be a life lesson, if everyone read this and took something from it to heart, what a wonderful world it would be.
