Summary: Ohhhh yes!!
Review: This is wonderful..this is absolutely perfect! Neil Donald Walsch does it again. I devoured Books 1,2,3, and FWG, and now here it is, finally, Communion with God, and I devoured it also. Book One has always been the best in my opinion, and I read it more than a dozen times and still refer back to it often, but this one is a tie with first. Ok, so a new consciousness is sweeping the planet - a new awakening, new perceptions...what is it really? It is the Spirit of Christ...he promised to come back in two days, didn't he? And in the Bible, two days is as a thousand years and it has been two thousand years since we nailed him to the cross. Christ is not coming back in body, we are far too dangerous a civilization for that because we are still murdering our prophets, so he has come back in spirit because once we have changed our perception and remember that we are all ONE, there is no threat because the thought is nothing but our own...and we awaken. Now you may say that this is God talking to Neil, not Jesus...but we are all ONE, and Jesus is the Son of God and we are the sons of God and so our thought comes directly from ALL THAT IS...our own thoughts! Neil is not playing God, Neil is a god from God, and he is willing to listen. We are all gods. Did the Bible not say "ye are gods." There is another book that I highly recommend for anyone that needs clarification of how this conversation of Neil's is possible in the first place, and what it means... The Many Waters by Lauretta Lueck. She explains where the Bible says that God is the Energy of all energy, and the Light of all light, but the intermediaries of heaven speak for God to us through THOUGHT!! It is all there...in the Bible. Many authors speak of a New World Order including James Redfield, Gary Zukav...add Lauretta Lueck to the list. I read the reviews here on Amazon.com and see so many people asking questions about the Bible...stop asking and go to The Many Waters. It is all there, and then all of these books will become so much clearer as to where they are taking you...and why. I am emphatic about CWG, The Many Waters, Celestine Prophecy, The Seat of the soul...because they have changed my life. Email me at pf255413@hotmail.com if you have something to share.

Summary: Can't get much better
Review: This book adds more power to Walsch's message of God unconditional love for us. If you want more of this message I would recommend the book An Encounter With A Prophet

Summary: A little more New Age...
Review: I have read CWG 1, 2, 3, FWG and now Communion with God. I'm pretty experienced with the concepts in Neale Donald Walsch's books and they have helped me in my life greatly. For me, this was one of the best books in the series. A few things I really liked was the fact that in the book "God" says to go within for the answers (page 108) so if you think this book isn't true, then believe yourself and if you think it is true, then believe yourself. I also found it very amusing that at the end of many chapters God says "And they were right.. but they made a mistake, etc." You'll see what I mean when you read the book. I thought it was funny that he kept repeating himself, but I do have a weird sense of humor so that might be why...What this book mainly talks about is the Ten Illusions of Humans and how to see through them. Some things kind of confused me, like the Illusion of Ignorance. If I have no ignorance, then why am I reading this book? I know my soul has no ignorance, but as far as my human mind is right now.. I'm pretty sure it doesn't know (or, remember) everything. One thing I really want to say in this review is that this is "just another religion/belief." We Are All One, etc. Many people call this religion "New Age." New Age talks about being One with everything and it also mixes in some self-help and stuff with it, that is the New Age religion and even if this book or anyone else wants to deny that, when you really look at it this is New Age. This book says it's not a better way, just another way.. yet it also says that it really is telling the "Ultimate Truth" and one day all religions will eventually tell you "the Ultimate Truth" which is what CWG (New Age) and every other religion claim to be. However, the nice thing about New Age is that it doesn't condemn other religions.. meanwhile other religions love to condemn each other. If you are a fan of the CWG series, I highly suggest you pick this one up. But please don't get too caught up in everything and forget that Love is all that matters. If you were to ask me about my religion I would say, Love is my religion and the Universe is my church. The truth is so simple a child could understand it completely, Love is the answer! But being the complex individuals we are, I think we try to make it harder than it is. That's just my belief though, you can believe anything you want. Even Jesus said that Love is the Way though. God bless all!

Summary: A Call To Action For All Mankind
Review: This, I assume, is the final book in the series...and what a finale it is. It is nothing short of a call to action for all of us: a call to stop all the fear, all the blame, all the greed and all the destruction of our environment. The other books are dialogue between Walsch and God whereas this one is just God. I have never felt so inspired to beecome part of the quantum leap in consciousness that this planet is about to embark upon. This is a must read for everyone...it is a road map of how to get our planet and our civilisation to the place that we all say we'd like it to be. So be it. I hope this brings you as much inspiration and truth as it did me. Peace and love to you all.

Summary: The best book of the entire series!
Review: I read a preview copy of this book & I think this is the best book that Neale Donald Walsch has written in the Conversations with God series. It helps to teach everyone to actually understand where we are coming from when we complain about things. Basically it lists these Illusions of Man & how we use them to understand how to live on earth among others. But the key is to not get so caught up in the illusion that you forget that's it's not real & it's just a way to live. It's very illuminating about some of the ways we get so caught up in these illusions & helps us to see & become more aware of how to use these illusions in a much better & healthier way that we've been using them.

Summary: The Message, Not the Messenger
Review: The message rates four stars. For a likely rating on the messenger, see the review dated 20 July 2003 by "a reader" who describes their personal encounter with the author. It is my hope that folks who get something good out of the message (as I have) will not be too dismayed when they learn that many folks who serve as God's messengers have yet to learn the difficult art of delivering the message with humility and grace.

Summary: Another way to change your life
Review: Summary
------------
This book deals with the reasons why most of us fear believing in a God who would be present without and within. Many of us do not have a problem in thinking about an external God, but having to confront yourself with the idea that God lies within yourself too, this seems to be disturbing for human kind. The first part of the book on the "ten illusions" is aimed at showing you that many of your beliefs are logically inconsistent (not to speak about what they could be subjectively...). This first part should at least lead you to acknowledge the possibility of an all-pervading God. The second part on how to deal with these "ten illusions" to reduce their impact and even suppress them, at least to see them as illusions instead of thinking they are real. Finally, the third part provides a broader perspective on what has been said before to make you start the journey back to God, or back to yourself, which is exactly the same thing.
Comments
---------------
The "ten illusions" as presented here give a really good account on what many humans think is true and that they never questioned. The way the author presents these ten illusions is not focibly the best way, it is just one way to present some viewpoint. However, i think that the author has made an excellent job in presenting these "illusions", and this book could hence be very useful for the reader if she/he uses it as a tool to reconsider her/his beliefs about God and reality. Even though the way in which the presentation of the "ten illusions" is made can be questioned (everything can be questioned), i cannot find any fault in the statements of this book, so i consider it quite highly compared to most other "spiritually-minded" ones available.
Note
-------
This book is not meant at convincing you about anything, it is up to you to convince yourself about something, and you are the only one able to so. So if you pick up this book and want to get the full benefit of it, read it as it were coming from yourself and for yourself, not from some author to some reader. This is what introspection is about, it is between you and you. Reading something and being left afterwards only with a judgment (i liked it or not) is useless for your life. Reading is about living an experience, you are doing that for you only, not for me. If you do not live your reading, better do something else that you'll really live in full. The author does not get any benefit for himself except the money he potentially earns by you buying it.

Summary: Silent Listener
Review: It is said "Communication is the key to success" but how and when do we communicate with God? Neale Donald Walsch has a way showing his readers how to be communicate with the ultimate super power 'God' and develop a friendly relation, irrelevant of the fact whether you can see him, meet him or not! Neale's dialogue with god fetches him back the answers that he could not visualize and foresee. The secret lies in talking, simple plain questions like:
Q. God please be here. We need help.
A. I am here
Q. We need help
A. I know
Q. Right Now
A. I understand
Q. The world is on brink of disaster and I'm not talking about natural disaster but about man made calamity.
A. I know. And you're right. You understand the severity of the problem. you simply do not understand the nature of the problem. You do now know what is causing it. So you keep trying to solve it at every level except the level at which it exists.
Q. Which is?
A.The problem facing the world today is spiritual problem....
And the conversations goes on...The message of all the sacred scriptures is the same. What is different is how humans have interpreted them, says Neale. The argument about what Quran says, Bible says, veda says, what Bhagwad Gita says is mind set thoughts of human brains. It is who you believe in that concerns most. I guess the message of Neale Donald Walsch's Conversation with god is all about communion with God, enlightening oneself and doing what is right. It is a step to break free from illusions and bring god in our everyday life to inspire, encourage and build within the courage to face the bare facts of life. A nice read with deep meanings to digest. Good Pick.

Summary: Everyone Should Read This Book
Review: I have read Neale Donald Walsh's first two COnversations with God books and was impressed especially with the first one. So, I checked into this one and found that it was by far the most impressive book I have ever read. My attitude and outlook on life has changed. Everything seems lighter and anything seems possible. Your life is what you make it and this book has helped me to understand how that is possible. I got my book from the library and I bought this one for my best friend.
