Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Iassen

Cool!

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Linda Donovan
I have all of the books on The Celestine Prophecy and have enjoyed all very much.
I like the way it is presented and the messages it gives. I hope there will be many more to follow The Secret of Shambhala.
I would like to think that anyone who reads these books could see how life could be so much better for everyone if only some of what he writes about in them could be used in their everyday life. It could make their life and others around them so much better.
They say a smile is catching. I believe that too and I think this should go along with that smile. So, smile at everyone you meet and mention these books in passing and maybe we can start an epodemic. Of Love understanding and faith.
The powers of our creator are many but to understand half of them is something many will never come close to.

Rated 2 of 5 of 5 by Jessica
The basic storyline of the nine insights of this book, The Celestine Pprophecy are very interesting. However, I found the writing to be quite boring and trivial. It drags in places where it was unnecessary. Only if there was a clearer point and better explanations of the insights, not how long it took the "main character" to gather his baggage to get to the car. One more thing....why again doesn't the main character have a name?

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by zhivko
This book is wonderful, but i'd like to answer Mr Redfield a few questions. Where can i do that?

Response from BookBrowse.com: Your best bet is to write to him c/o the publisher. The publisher's name and address will be in the front of the book. Or you can visit http://www.bookbrowse.com/faqs.cfm for information on how to find the publisher online.

Rated 5 of 5 of 5 by Lloyd P. Brown
I found this book to be an inspiration to get me back to where I wanted to be in a spiritual sense. The use of these ideas on a daily,hour by hour basis can ceratainly help one person lift himself and hopefully lift every one I come in contact with. WE each live our own little dramas on a daily basis. Why not try to make our contacts happy occurances. Each time I read one of Mr. redfields books I feel beter about myself and the world around me .
