Compelling, June 27, 2000 - Reviewer: A reader from Newcastle, UK
I'm not religious, tend to be practical, and as a rule, I don't tend to read a lot of books. I'm an information addict and if drawn to the printed page it's usually because I'm looking for answers to questions or factual information. I didn't think I'd ever end up reading something that the uninformed would probably file under new-age. So why was I unable to put this book down?
This, along with "The Nature of Personal Reality", has been my exposure to the Seth 'concept' so far. A few years ago when I read this, I was in a job I hated, probably drinking too much and couldn't really see an upturn in life's fortunes. I had heard about the Seth books via Francis Dunnery's songwriting and did a bit of looking around and in retrospect, couldn't have found these books at a more perfect time during my life. Where "The Nature of Personal Reality" probably did a lot of corrective work on refocusing my approach to life, this is the volume that pulled my mind wide open and got me to think at great length. Seth's concepts, possibilities, (I will hesitate to use the word explanations) were enough to bring a positivity and curiosity back into an otherwise drab existence. While it's easy enough to use the approach that if you can't change your world, change yourself, reading this opened up the other possibility that I would have otherwise been too cautious to take - to look at that world in a different way. Same world, same you, better understanding, better outlook.
One reviewer here - a hallowed top 500 reviewer, no less - stopped short of calling either Jane Roberts or the publishers crooks for charging money for selling lies. You're not asked to believe it, just to consider it. If it works for you, great, if not, look for other answers: it's your choice, your reality. I can't recommend this book highly enough for the enveloping assuredness it could place upon your life. Seth is an engaging storyteller; whether any of it is fact or fiction, it matters not to me. |
