The Celestine Prophecy

The Celestine Prophecy is an adventure by James Redfield.

In reality, it is a self-help book tricked out to look enough like fiction that it will get unsuspecting innocents to read it. (After realizing this, the traditional signs did pop out at me: the blurb on the front cover from an M.D., the subscription form in the back [$30 for a newsletter, $50 for an audio tape.])

That being said, I do think some of the less spectacular claims here could help some people. (People I don't know, but certainly someone.)

If I were to sum up this book, it would simply be: know thyself, know others, and act on it.

If you aren't easily duped into sending money to random people, I won't say that you shouldn't read this book, but maybe it wouldn't be an incredibly painful experience.
