Tenth Insight:Holding The Vision/Abr

Rating:
Summary: Sorry but I couldn't get anything from it!
Review: Normally I only read non-ficition books because there are so many good non-ficitoin books that I am learning from. A few years ago I decided to read a fiction book because of a recommendation from a good friend. It was the Celestine Prophecy and I thoroughly enjoyed it. When I heard of The Tenth Insight I felt it was a good time to read a second fiction book. However I was truly disillusioned. I tried twice to read the book. I eventually got half way through the book. I could not understand the book. I tried it twice. I got nothing out of it! I read an average of 45 minutes every morning at 5 to 6am. I have read over 450 non-fiction books but only one book and a half of fiction.

Summary: Wonderful series of books!
Review: I have read most of the Celestine Prophecy series. They are easy to read and teach great lessons about life. I very highly recommend them.

Summary: Definite Read
Review: This rounds out the first nine insights. It does sound somewhat fanciful to non-openminded people, but does hold the truth within it. It was meant to be fictional and at the same time was able to give a message of utmost importance - respect and non-judgement. Obviously, some people didn't get that message and wished to judge. If you don't like something, that is okay, but this is a book that encourages positive behavior. I don't care what religion one follows, the message is a good one.

Summary: Here's a fun game for the folks who liked this book:
Review: Look through the entire book and see if you can find a metaphor. I only read the first 23 pages, but I figured that if I didn't see one by then, the metaphor would be as hard to find as a sober college student at the homecoming tailgate party. That a novel so devoid of LITERARY INSIGHT can live on the bestseller rack for months should tell us how much we missed in high school English class. -J. A. Kemp, Jr.

Summary: Mr. Redfield's books are the connections between West&East.
Review: Mr. Redfield's books can serve as a bridge to connect the ancient eastern cultivation culture and nowadays earthly human insights. They are full of perceptives,wisdom and is an indication of humandkind's evolution by a grand new perspect of the meaning of earthly life as well as a revelation of the potentiality of humankind's spirituality/consciousness.

Summary: Not so much "An Adventure" after all
Review: An interesting case of "airport religion." Pick this one up at the gift shop and, an hour later, you'll just be dying to tell everyone else on your flight all about the Insights... unless, of course, you recognize the fallacy of appealing to a reader's inherent intelligence and worth by dumbing the text waaaaay down. Two stars only for narrowly beating out the in-flight magazine.

Summary: Ten is One To Many
Review: I'm not the type who goes for all the spirtual stuff, but even dismissing that I found Redfield's first book to be possessing an interesting plot. However, "The Tenth Insight" struck me as having almost no plot development at all, and instead, Redfield focused almost entirely on the spirtual aspect and seemed to forget that a novel has to have some sort of a story line as well.

Summary: A worthy follow-up to The Celestine Prophecy
Review: I immediately read The Tenth Insight after The Celestine Prophecy and I feel that it was a natural progression of the ideas put forward in TCP. Although I definitely do not agree with everything that was said it made me reflect on my own life and it's purpose.
