THE #1 BESTSELLING INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON - NOW WITH A NEW PREFACE

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 optimism as you head into tomorrow.

Praise for The Celestine Prophecy
"A gripping adventure story filled with intrigue, suspense, and spiritual revelations." - Commonwealth Journal

"A spiritual classic...a book to read and reread, to cherish, and to give to friends." - Joan Borysenko, PhD, author of Fire in the Soul

"In his inimitable style of great storytelling, Redfield opens us up to a world of insight, inspiration, synchronicity, and power." - Deepak Chopra

I read this book in one day, cover to cover. I knew nothing about it save it was recommended to me. As I read, I grew concerned (pretty quickly) it was a work of fiction, but I read on, expecting to do follow-up research to confirm the ideas and incidents in the book. Part of that research brought me here.

Reading the reviews of all the haters was to be expected. Their focus (as always) is on pointless distractions to keep their brain from engaging in the core question: "Why do we exist?" I've seen this repeatedly on every book that brings to light evidence that counters commonly accepted ideals in government, diet and, most often, faith.

I found the book fascinating, but it also aligned with many of my current beliefs so I am likely biased. This, in conjunction with Darryl Anka's Bashar, is amazing insight into how things more than likely actually work. It makes logical sense. It is not faith based, but it still supports many of the faith based principles in a measurable way (namely Jesus Christ, his miracles, and what he meant by "this too shall you do and more"). Scientists have proven that communing with plants makes them stronger. Certain music (vibrations) physically impacts plant growth, sleep, brain wave patterns, etc. We have shown and measured the ability some have to alter their bodies pace of healing, heart rate, and temperature using nothing but thought / meditation. Then, we have repeated themes in pop culture - even Star Wars with the Jedi and the Force (the original three) - their ability to manipulate energy. Lucas's imagination is surprisingly aligned with these ideas aside from the fighting. The Matrix is another, although, this book does not cover the shared dream aspect...

Factually, energy is the one thing that everything breaks down to. Everything you see is networks of variously connected atoms vibrating at frequencies that our brains perceive as a rock, or a collection of complex molecules that work together and fly as a bird, etc. It's all energy on the most basic level.

You can read this book and focus on the negatives and tear it apart - or you can read it with an open mind consuming the information which is very empowering and some of it obviously true.

Happy reading!

Celestine Prophecy
By James Redfield

I circled back to read this book with two intentions. First was to refresh its powerful message in my mind. Second was to write a review and share it on Cigar Room of Books.
This book takes a `new age' spin on Christ's message. It talks about a higher level of consciousness as a function of the energy in thought. It touches on subjects that for some reason science backs away from. I honestly do know if they back away in fear, or they refute it in the name of ignorance. Perhaps they can explain all these mysteries away. The fundamental concept is that people are energy; molecules housed as one collection in a body. This is science. So if energy takes the form of vibrating molecules: can the by product of those molecules the brain, thought, actually control the molecules. Psycho-cybernetics.

From the book I provide the following excerpt. "When humans begin to raise their vibrations to a level where others cannot see them....it will signal that we are crossing the barrier between this life and the other world from which we came and to which we go after death. This conscious crossing over is the path shown by the Christ. He opened up to the energy until he was so light he could walk on water. He transcended death right here." Now there is a lot of dialogue that leads up to this excerpt that would help the reader more fully appreciate the words herein. Still yet it is indeed quite a leap in what...faith. So my question still stands to the Neigh Sayers of science: does not science require faith in their own study of the unknown?

The book itself is an adventure novel in pursuit of Insights across the countryside of Peru. In my mind as an adventure writer Redfield is a little weak. What keeps the reader going is to read what he exposes as the Insights them selves. To that I provide a summary, an excerpt from the book for those who somehow cannot find time for reading any book, let alone this one.

"I was alert to the mysterious way my life evolved, as revealed by the First Insight. I knew that the whole culture was sensing this mystery again as well, and we were in the process of constructing a new world view, as pointed out by the Second. The Third and Fourth had showed me that the universe was in reality a vast system of energy and that human conflict was a shortage of and a manipulation of this energy. The Fifth Insight revealed that we could end this conflict by receiving and inpouring of this energy from a higher source. For me, this ability had almost become habit. The Sixth, that we could clear our old repeated dramas, and find our true selves, was also permanently etched in my mind. And the seventh has set in motion the evolution of these true selves: through question, intuition of what to do, and answer. Staying in this magic flow was truly the secret of happiness. And the Eight Insight, knowing how to relate in a new way to others, bringing out in them the very best, was the key to keeping the mystery operating and the answers coming. All the Insights have integrated into a consciousness that felt like a heightened sense of alertness and expectation. What was left, I knew was the Ninth, which revealed where our evolution was taking us. We had discovered some of it. But what about the rest? `

The rest is covered in a few more books by Redfield and many other authors. But the bottom line is let the energy our thoughts connect with the universe. In that connection you will find man-kind as One. Once again John Lennon's song Imagine fills my day. If you don't read start your day with his song.

Naff story but if you can get through that, the messages are thought provoking...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 13, 2020
Verified Purchase
I understand why the writer needed to pad it out with the story but I feel the storyline is like something you'd find in a teen age-appropriate adventure book - but it's bearable! Worth speed reading the story to the juicy bits - each of the prophecies, then having a good think about how they appear in your own life, reflecting and using the information to make good changes in your understanding or approach to your own life.

I have often felt a little lost for spiritual guidance through my life as just could not feel any connection to a religion. This book helps my to have a sense of spiritual connection which is not religion based.

I liked the notion of understanding control behaviours, how they present themselves and the consequences and also the use of meditation as a tool for recharging energies when they are low. Also, the flow of energy from person to person and I try to be consciously aware of positively giving energy to everyone who enters my day or to be aware when I might be draining someone's energy with my negative behaviour. Looking out for key messages from people I meet on a day to day basis makes me properly stop and listen to what people have to say or what they might be able to teach me.

I enjoy trying to work out why some people's behaviour triggers me and understand I need to look deeper into myself to understand why and maybe resolve some issues I may be carrying.

An easy read, naff story but good things hidden within! I have given the book to my 11yr old son who is enjoying it too so good for all ages.

WOW - Recommendation from a friend.
Reviewed in Canada on September 21, 2019

This book was a recommendation from a friend, a lover, when I was struggling with the separation from my significant partner. Every time I picked up the book, the insights were directly relevant to what I was experiencing at that time. They provided me with clarity and an overwhelming sense of love as I began to understand that a Spiritual Renaissance is happening here on Earth. I am grateful every day that he showed me this book. I recommend this book to each of my friends who is seeking beauty, encouragement, understanding, and love, in a world that can feel cruel and disempowering.

The only book you'll ever need on experiencing life and understanding the big questions about the World. James writes an excellent novel that takes you on a journey through the insights, not just explaining them to you. THIS BOOK IS AN ADVENTURE AND IS CAPTIVATING ON EVERY PAGE, IN EVERY LINE. He explains what the insights mean to experience life and integrate them, in order, for yourself. Once you purchase this book, you will begin to awaken to your purpose here and love as the ultimate enlightenment. Buy and you will want to share with all the people you are connected to.

Loved so much, I am already ready to read James' book again.

A nice book to think about the happenings in your life and the meaning you wish to associate with. Nothing is by accident. Your fate is guided by things that happen in your life - you must be open enough to embrace and learn what it must teach you.
