As is frequently the case, this book did not deserve all the positive press it received back then. ( )I read this while traveling through Costa Rica...only fitting. There were times when I just slowed down and I swear I could make the colors brighter and see the energy between my pointer finger and thumb. It's one of those books that you just have to read and let your mind open up to the idea that there may be some truth to our human race not benefitting from our full potential. Fantastic book! I lost my copy years ago and intend to buy a new one soon. This is a keeper to read again and again for years to come. A friend recommended this book to me saying it would open up my mind to the world. In fact it did. Poorly written story but the more important spiritual sub text is very interesting to read about. Very thought provoking and makes you think differently about the world and our place in it. The book by James Redfield is a compelling one. It reveals universal truths through a fictional but gripping tale of an ancient manuscript in Peru that describes nine insights of life on earth, purpose of human existence, how people manipulate relationships to gain energy and feel empowered and how this only results in control dramas that each of us plays throughout our lives and how we can recharge ourselves with an inexhaustible universal source through love. The beauty of the book is in the manner each of the nine insights is revealed to the main character in the book through individuals he meets and experiences he has. It is thought provoking and I believe it has made a difference in my own psyche and my view of myself. 0.038 seconds to build listing
