The Celestine Prophecy : A Pocket Guide to the Nine Insights

Rating:
Summary: Incredibly bad!
Review: This book is so bad, the english language lacks a word to accuratly describe it. That this book has been such an incredible hit is really worrying. It leads one to think that the amount of airheads, spaced out nitwits or just plain morons is lot's higher than anyone had ever imagened possible. Without even saying a single word about the 'story', it's incredible that a book that is so poorly written found such a huge audience! And about the story....let's keep it at this: LOL!

Summary: Celestine Prophecy
Review: This is a good thriller/story book version for introducing thephilosophy and idea of Integral Yoga of Sri Aurobindo Ghosh and MirraAlfassa also known as the Mother... The insights themselves are presented in simplistic ways as if they are within the reach of everyone. A person feels good and warm on reading the book and their hope is raised for the goal that this evolution is moving towards. But, life is more complex and so, the rate at which the principle hero gobbles up the insights into his nature is not reflecting to truth in real life. All in all, one can read the novel once to find out an alternative to what other realms and mindsets one can evolve into. Sri Aurobindo and the Mother have shown vaster spiritual realms that the race is marching towards. This book is a glimpse of that in a very good fictional way.

Rating:
Summary: A thought-provoking read.
Review: Though I doubt that I'll choose to follow the insights as my personal religion, I can't help but ponder some of the ideas brought forth. I'm especially curious though, why those who feel that this book is so detrimental are afraid to use their name or e-mail address?

Summary: Worth a read
Review: Whether or not one chooses to take the ideas put forth in the Celestine Prophecy and make a personal religion out of them, I think that Redfield has some interesting thoughts. The novel is obviously fiction, but the "insights" can have application in one's own life. Maybe you make the Celestine Prophecy your Bible and subscribe to the newsletter. Maybe you just start thinking a little more about the spiritual aspect of life. Either way, I think that the Celestine Prophecy's insights are worth a look and should get the mental and spiritual juices flowing. I bought the book a few months after reading it, and I don't regret that. If I read the sequel(s), though, I'll check them out of the library. I am a Christian.
