| In any forum it is necessary to moderate what people post. Control yourself. Take a deep breath. If you want to have a serious discussion about the books and how they have influenced your life, start by stating the facts. Tell us why you think your head was messed up and how the books had something to do with this. Then read over what you wrote to correct your spelling, punctuation, and grammar. Make sure that what you want to say is clearly and concisely expressed and be clear about what you want from your reader. Maybe you will decide that you aren't ready to post, because it isn't clear in your own head what you mean. The process of writing and re-writing can help clear this up for you. This is a public forum, so keep in mind that you will move on from what you think and feel now and you can't erase what you put online. The moderators can take posts down, but they may or may not have been archived before that happens. If you just attack the books and you don't give anything substantial to explain your reasons, it doesn't hurt the books: it only makes you look bad. |

I don't believe that the celestine prophecy will go down in history as a milestone piece of literature. I also don't think it was intended that way. I didn't care too much for the plot, but the message was clear. This is not a book review site, so I would not complain. This forum is a way for like-minded souls to encourage positivity and well- being. James Redfield has ignited something dormant in all of us here. I am not the most articulate poster on this forum, but I try to get to the point without sounding like an imbecile.
Of course you are entitled to your own opinion. Freedom of speech is a blessing, but try to understand that negativity does not belong here.
Peace and love and light to you all x |

I couldn't have said it any better myself. If you criticize, do it constructively and explain WHY. |

I said the books are better to be taken as- spritual science fiction- than genuine literal prophecy- my head got really messed by redfield books- and im a bit pissed! |
Hi Steve,
No topics have been removed for quite a while. Perhaps this is the post you're referring to? http://www.celestinevision.com/celestine/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1937
James, indeed, considers the Celestine books to be 'spiritual parables,' although some readers do confuse the book as being non-fiction. As James likes to say, "All the important parts are real!"
Peace,
Kelly |

How can money matters be personal when you speak about money not being a means of exchange in the future? It is a very relevant question to ask?
Some of us area already doing that with energy exchanges and trades. |

James Redfield is correct when he said that money will not exist in The New World. Money has just been another lesson for the human race to learn from. Money has become The God we worship today. Our mind of reason should tell us that in this dimension we cannot survive without money. However, in the New World the exchange of money will be gone. It will be more like credits one earns through service, education, attitudes and personal growth etc. In another words, no free rides, one will have to work
hard to achieve a better life but, what you won't see is the greed and corruption and accumulated wealth you see in this world. Times up, those people will not qualify for the New World and will continue their lessons elsewhere in another time warp. You can't compare this world to the next and yet, for now, survival is a necessity but, how you survive would be the question we all need to ask ourselves. Certainly we have all been tested in the areas of the material world we live in and our responsibility and accountability with money? But now, our material world is crumbling. These are the effects of the causes we all have put into motion not just in this lifetime but in other lifetimes as well. |

| There seems to be a lot of looking to the future for what's going to happen. When I finally realized that the future will never exist, a great weight was lifted from my shoulders. I am the god of my own life and every possibility of the future already has and always will be happening. The world will end in an explosion, it will become a spiritual plane, it will be anything and everything it can be for it already is. There is no future, only choices of what vibation I choose to be. |

| TimFellow, I absolutely agree with you. Evolution of the planet and it's species is a continuum of unbounded space and time and we're a part of that. I don't think the planet will blow up? However, exactly what will happen in 2012 is speculation and their are so many theories out there?? What you do now, as you said, is important and the rest will take care of itself in a most "natural" flow of life. |

No, the planet isn't going to blow up for me, I left the doomsday world.  |

inaudible..you are.a..fussy fussy..fuss pot...at least i know myself and i am honest, is this all you do put people down...capitalists often need to be accountable because if they do market books ect..in misleading ways and are not accountable..thier businesses will eventually back-fire my writtings are un- paid and very loosely recognised!! so whats the fuss.. and also in-audible you definately don't know me so don't evaluate my one parcel of 'free speech'....the only good you did and i am thankful.. you did mention that it would be better i gave more reasoning for my complaint....steve. |

I'm assuming the core of the statement relating to the dwindling relevance of money in the near future is the collective movement of awareness from appreciation of quantity to appreciation of quality. It's not the amount of stuff you can get a hold of through life that matters; more, it is the quality of the life you live, and the way people or things contribute to that quality of life, that matters. Creature comforts, while they give some small measure of satisfaction relative to quality, do not inspire a lasting and fulfilling appreciation in the individual making use of them, and humanity, as its collective awareness begins to bloom, is coming to realize this more clearly.
As the insights James has shared through the mythology of his books have been of great benefit to so many, either as thought-provoking material or as a set of guidelines which one may make use of to correct some of their personal issues in life, I would assume that the sense of quality he has in his life is quite strong. I make no assumption as to his perspective on money, but I would speculate that the accumulation of wealth would be a secondary thing to the satisfaction he derives from sharing his work. _________________ In each of us is a hollow that cannot be filled, a craving that is not quite hunger, but something more persistent, more real...
To touch divinity, one must first be prepared to brave reality. |
