The Force

Summary: A Very Powerful Little Book
Review: I stumbled upon this short book by accident, although I'm an avid reader of books on consciousness and inner development. It concisely and unerringly deals with what many of us know intuitively about the way that things are. Some of the material may be unpalatable for some readers, but Stuart Wilde directs us to truth and the rules that govern our progress, without avoiding any issues. He has a powerful, direct style and one senses that the message is too important to waste time on borderline issues.

Summary: WILD & WONDERFUL
Review: I suggest you read his book "Affirmations" first, before this one and the others in the Taos Quartet. He continues his discussion of the universal life force here, in the chapters entitled: Reincarnation, guides & the higher self; Understanding the force; Developing a flow of communication; Four disciplines of the initiates; Love of the force sets you free; and Your life's ultimate goal. Wilde has a very unique style of writing and all his books are interesting - I just don't think the suggested exercises always work or are always applicable. I am not sure I agree with his dietary recommendations either. Nevertheless, this is a good read, especially for his take on the different "selves" and the discussion of vibrational patterns. I think that the mere act of reading his books raises one's vibrations!

Summary: THIS LITTLE BOOK IS A REAL EYE OPENER
Review: I teach psychic development. When a student asks me if there is something they can read in preparation for the class, I always recommend The Force. It gives basic elements in a unique and fresh way. Stuart is a good writer and I think if you've found this page, you're ready for the book! Linda Schiller-Hanna Clairvoyant

Summary: Clear and concise and right on
Review: This book was great for helping sort through all the issues and keeping a clear idea of why we are here and how to make the most of it. It's such a small and easy to read book, it's worth it to have extra copies to pass on.

Summary: Good for the Beginner
Review: This is a great little book that someone can sit down in one day and finish reading. It is definately a beginners book in the metaphysical realm. I've enjoyed Stuart Wilde's books for some time now and if your new to concepts such as "The external world is a reflection of your inner self", then this is a great book for you. If you have been reading metaphysical books for at least a couple of years, you would do better with one of Stuart's other books such as "Inifinite Self"....which I feel is one of his best, and encompasses all of his ideas into a single book.

Summarized, this book is about seeing the world around you as a teacher, rather then something you have been subjected to. That there is no "sin", because sin is just a moral standard that is completely subjective....we should look at everything as a method to learn and grow from. This book also goes into detail on how to be disciplined on your spiritual path. Keep in mind, this book was first published in 1984, so it was probably written in 1982 or 1983....and the time, this was a great step in the right direction. But today, things are different, energy is moving faster....and spiritual paths are easier to follow. What I mean is, you don't need to get up at 3 in the morning and throw yourself into a cold lake to shake up your ego. You don't need to move rocks from one side of the back yard to the other. You don't NEED discipline because that only anchors you HERE, in this reality. What is real is beyond this reality, so why would you want to be anchored more in this?

The real is the higher realms....becoming multi-dimensional is the goal now, and before that was difficult to achieve. Not anymore....my, have we grown!!
