Customer Reviews

the celestine prophecy
i bought this book after it was recommended to me by a friend. i wouldnt normally write a review after reading a book but felt it was necessary this time.

on the first attempt i found the book a little far-fetched and struggled to accept the story line. however i decided to give it another go and completely changed my opinion of it.

this book requires a completely open mind and a skeptical attitude will prevent it from having any impact at all. i found the insights to be really poignant and felt that they rang true with many events and thoughts which have occurred for me in my life.

i wouldnt say this book is 'life changing' but i feel it is a good tool to have when approaching new, and in some cases more familiar, situations and it has caused me to adopt a completely different mindset on life.

i hope it does the same for you, and would definitly suggest you give it the opportunity to do so...

Clumsy, laboured and a waste of time
Trying to disguise a badly-written self-help book in a woefully written attempt at a novel/adventure story meant that if there is any value in the author's thoughts, it has been wholly demeaned by this pitiful book.

If you enjoy being patronised in a heavy-handed manner, this is the perfect book.

The Celestine Prophecy
The Celestine Prophecy is one of my favorite classic spiritual fiction journeys. The book follows the personal growth of one man as he follows a mysterious query about an ancient manuscript. An old friend happens to drop by and tells him about an ancient Peruvian manuscript dating back to 600 BC. This relic tells of a shift in the mind thought of the world starting at the end of the 20th century. The key to this shift are nine insights that must be gained, understood, and integrated into the mind and lives of individuals.

Intrigued by the possibilities, the main character travels to Peru in hopes of finding out more about this mystery. With no real direction or plan, at each step he is helped along by coincidence and others following the same quest. Along the way, he also learns about himself, his connection to the universe, and his part in this evolutionary process.
