this book will wake you up
I bought this book about a year ago not even realizing it was about a Course In Miracles. About the early 90's I had read the Course and even started the workbook progressing to about lesson 100 or so. But this book (Disappearance) really helped clarify what the Course is all about; I could literally feel my ego resisting the material in the beginning of the book, but at the end I couldn't put it down. Needless to say, I started the workbook again and my mind will never be the same again. This book is a blessing and a Godsend.

I am now a beliver...
At first I did not believe the theory behind this so-called "treatise."But then, an odd thing happened.I posted a review about this author's other "book," "YOUR IMMORTAL REALITY," wherein I pointed out that, in my haste to further my property buying expertise, I purchased the book and was shocked and dismayed to discover it was not about REALTY at all.See, in that review I posted for "YOUR IMMORTAL REALITY," I took the time to compose it, post it, and even a few people found it helpful, if not insightful.Dare I say, a few even took heed of my cautionary review to fully read the title before buying it.HOWEVER, it suddenly vanished!POOF, it has since disappeared.Yes, strange things abound.
Good Book
I thought the book was fairly decent. I would recommend it to those who are interested in the "Course in Miracles." Being a "new ager" myself, I found many of his allusions quite correct. ... Read more

I found it rather slow-moving
I listened intently but was unable to get beyond the first two CD's -- perhaps I've already heard too much motivational, success-oriented, self-help kinds of things, but this one lacked enthusiam and anything new. Content was OK.

Super!Easy to follow, deep to ponder.
What do you want?Joy? Happiness? Money? Fulfilling relationships?I've tried many workshops, books, classes, even a social work degree, but none have made attaining the things I want in life as easy or fun as Abraham has in this set of CDs.As Jerry Hicks reads the information, you are guided through 22 fun and effective exercises or processes to use to attain all your desires. Fun and Effective! And I really enjoy his voice.

Everyone should read this!!
Was absolutely thrilled w/ the book, so got the CD for my husband, he found it as wonderful as I did, would recommend it to anyone who is searching for something more.... in there lives. ... Read more

Editorial Review

After years of spiritual study and reflection, inspirational speaker and bestselling author Wayne Dyer has emerged a highly esteemed teacher. His current message about tapping into the power of intention may sound like good old positive thinking: just stay focused on what you want, rather than focusing on the lack of having what you want. But the teaching here goes deeper than just controlling thoughts (although he does acknowledge that thought control is a surprisingly challenging and significant endeavor). This book might help readers land a better job, but it's more relevant for those who are ready to detach from an ego-driven life filled with quick fixes of happiness and step into a more authentic, joyful, and spiritually fulfilling life. His core teachings speak to tapping into a universal source of energy that can also be called the "power of intention." He calls people who are consciously co-creating with this energy source "connectors" and describes them as "individuals who have made themselves available for success...They don't say Read more

Intention Creates Invention
"Imagination Is More Important Than Knowledge..."
Solid, attainable advice for those who want to live their purpose
In his book The Power of Intention, Dr. Wayne Dyer's main point seems to be that your life is co-created by you and "Intention" (which is his word for God or the Source of all power).
More outstanding work from Dyer
Been a Wayne Dyer fan for some years so of course I would like his latest work. What has most impressed me about it is the impact it has had on my thrity two year old son. He recently went through a divorce and had been struggling with some other problems and some how this hit him dead center. He quit drinking, quit smoking and meditates as well as running again. The proof is in the results and I am impressed the impact it has had on him. I loved the book and feel like this one is a step up in a good way from his other work. ... Read more

The Law of Attraction
This book is so totally awesome to the MAX!!!!! I love Esther and Jerry Hicks for providing us with this labor of love teachings of Abraham.I got ripples of pleasure up my spine while reading this incredible book.The words and meaning go to the center of my heart and resonate throughout my entire being.I am so happy and grateful to have this treasure of a book.This understanding of how Law of Attraction works has improved my life over a hundred fold.I can't say enough how much I love and adore these teachings.Life gets better and better when you know that Law of Attraction is working in every aspect of your life and in the world.This is some good stuff indeed!

In a word... inspiring.
Abraham presents an opportunity for those seeking answers.And those answers leads to a life of unlimited abundance and endless opportunities for creating happiness, health, and wealth in simple everyday living.Better yet, the theories presented inspire change within the individual, and in doing so, lead to very apparent change in those around you.It is truly a spiritual guide to connecting, creating, and living. ...

Greatest Public Speaker
Takes a while to get yourself into the beleif and truly understand the topic.

Live Lectures You'll Want to Listen To
Dr. Dyer brings wonderful, life affirming truth in this companion 6 volume CD set to his book "The Power of Intention."
Great brain food
I try to choose what I allow into my mind carefully. I try to avoid all negative, fearbased, conversation, TV, radio, or print. I look at my past and learn, I also learn from personal development material, and take direction from alot of different teachers. Common denominators start to appear as I learn from these great thinkers. I see these laws of success, joy, contentment, purpose, etc; apear over and over again. I see them again here in Dr. Dyer's work. But this is not just another writing. Clearly this is Dr. Dyer's evolving journy and wisdom coming to be. Another step forward. The deflation of ego, and the beleif that all is energy and all energy comes from one source, amazing. I love listening to this at night before bed, just great brain food. Personal development is a big part of my life. Remain teachable and positive, and life will be rewarding.

Could lead you beyond the mind
"Through the Open Door" is a collection of CDs lasting about one hour each with two apparently random extracts from a retreat given by Eckhart Tolle (E.T., with no pun intended). When it was given and where is unclear. After a brief introduction by the lady who runs "Sounds True" (i.e. the publisher), you start hearing E.T.'s voice and his unmistakable German accent.
Spiritual Humor
"The greater part of human pain is unnecessary. It is self-created as long as the unobserved mind runs your life." ~Eckhart Tolle
Say A Deep Yes To What Is
"The need for enemies-people, situation, places and so on-is the root for making the present moment something that you need to oppose. The present moment equals life. Life can only be present Now. The Little Me lives in opposition to the Now...to life itself. If that's not mad, what is?" - Eckhart Tolle

Exactly what I was looking for
I was looking for and needing simple and clear self-improvement / enlightenment.My life had grown so stagnant and mediocre.I knew I was missing something but couldn't put my finger on it.It is not enough to start listening to classic music or just reading more novels.It is about looking within. How easy it is to overlook or forget how much power and control we have over our own lives. I plan to give this book out as gifts to my friends and family.

Best spiritual text ever written
I have quoted and underlined and re-read this book so many times that it is falling apart.If you can overcome the politically incorrect masculine form of writing, the material is as true to today as it was when it was written.James Allen was truely an enlightened soul.His writing is so packed with spiritual truths that the reader will want to read the text slowly and repeatedly to allow it to linger in the mind.This is my favorite book of all time.

Awesome book
This books will change the way you think! Find it!

Pronoia Pleasure
Wonderful, eclectic book...filled with nuggets of wisdom, sassy observations, truth-seeking insights.New.Unusual.Not for the scaredy-cats of philosophy, religion or politics.The sort of book that lends well to thumbing through at leisure, or flipping through backwards. Or upside down, or inside out. A great book to find refuge in when the prison-camps of corporate life and stultified living are overwhelming.I plan to give copies to everyone I know and to quote some of the more outrageous thoughts in the faces of my dreariest, most conservative acquainances.Loved the book.Recommend it highly.

Great Guidance
I have close to 30 other tarot & oracle decks. I am amazed by how well these cards work for me. There is a real affinity and accuracy in the readings. I've collected all the Doreen Virtue cards because of this. The mix of spiritual and mundane in the interpretations makes it easy to utilize the guidance in real life. I recommend these cards.

Nice cards
Dont like the pictures as well as the Messages from Your Angel cards, but pretty. Informative and book was helpful. Use some but not as much as the Angel cards by Doreen. Love both sets!! Would recommend

Angels are amoung us!!!!!
These Oracle cards are wonderful....they remind me that I am not alone in this world and that all I have to do is ask for help and my angels will be there...in this deck the archangels have 3 different drawings and messages...this is NOT A HINDERANCE...it is a BENEFIT...as angels can speak to you in many ways....all positive..with positive feedback...they are always there for you to guide you and protect you....I am thankful that they (the angels are in my life).....the card are beautiful and the messages are just as beautiful....I can definatly say that these along with Doreen Virtues other angel oracle cards are my favorite.....What I find apealing is that there is always something new for me to learn about myself and how my life affects those around me andthat ask to see thru the eyes of the angels that things look different and that your opionion is not biased in anyway..but, your outlook on life is changed for the better...all I can say is thank you.... ...

FANTASTIC, BUT MAY NOT BE THE BEST FIRST BOOK ON SOM TO BUY
I won't get into a lengthy explanation of Science Of Mind.You can go to the great SOM website for that.As some reviews pointed out there are many roads to Mecca.Science of Mind just happens to be mine.This particular book is meant to be a text book on SOM.It's not exactly a great introduction to read on your own.I would suggest buying it and taking a Foundation class in your are or on line.For an introduction to SOM try one of his shorter more conversational books like "Can We Talk to God," "This thing called You" or "This thing Called Life."As for the reviews advising to try another religion or philosophy, I just don't get it.If this is not for you, cool.But what kind of person would I be if I went to Hindu or Muslim books and slammed them for not being SOM?I think it would be odd behavior.And yes, he wrote in the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s so thewritings reflect the lingo of the times.But that doesn't bother me, I like Emerson too.

Thank you , Ernest Holmes
Ernest Holmes defines what faith is. For all you people who think it is a method of getting what you want ,this is a must read for you. Is saving your soul worth $17.00 ?
From Doorstop to Top Shelf
I first bought the Science of Mind textbook about 14 years ago. I had already been studying spirituality and metaphysics for a few years prior and got the book from the advice of a friend.

Failure
While I absolutely adore Sylvia Browne and also Chris by default, this book was an utter disappointment. There is absolutely nothing new in "My Psychic Journey". Even some of the anecdotes overlap with Sylvia's other books. Chris has simply rewritten his mother's books and didn't even both to change the style or tone to fit his own personality. I got nothing from reading it and was sorely disappointed. The only difference between "Psychic Journey" and Sylvia's books is that Chris writes erratically, dragging in some places while not expanding in others. Every single chapter eventually deviates from the original topic and then comes back toward the end, seemingly to make a point (which doesn't happen) which only serves to highlight the fact that the reader has just read several pages about essentially nothing of relevance.
Verdict's still out....
I'm so torn as to how to review this book.I love Chris personally (and his mom) but there seems to be so much re-hashing (of his mother's books) and just a bit of hypocrisy (on page 39 he states emphatically that he has absolutely no faith in "trappings" e.g., pendulums, etc. yet on page 139 he goes into detail describing how those trappings should be used).If he holds no store in them, then why is he explaining them to his audience?I also have the feeling that were it not for all the constant mentions of his mother, the book would be a fraction of the already small size that it is.It's interesting that both he and his mother came out w/ a book about the exact same thing at the exact same time.Had Chris not mentioned something about payroll being due again, that would have been my first question.
Very energized and inspirational book
This is very interesting book. I find it very interesting to know about the routine life of the psychic, the power of prayer, the connection with God. This book helps me to deal with my own problems. It energized me, helped me to restore my energy after hard day. I could never work as a psychic andpredict future. Sometimes I use Tarot cards, Healing with the Angels cards for myself to meditate and just relax. I could not 100% rely on this cards, and I would not. ... Read more

Read with a mind open to all things and attached to nothing
It seems to me much of the problem some readers are having with The Seat of the Soul is having the material validated so that it meets their approval. That is an impossibility due to the very nature of the subject. In order to comprehend certain things we must change our current frame of reference. This is explained in the book:
One of the Greatest Books Ever Written
I'm so surprised by the negative reviews for "The Seat of the Soul" on Amazon that I felt compelled to write this one.This is one of the greatest books ever written.It completely transformed my life and will yours too if you read it thoughtfully and are able to absorb Zukav's concepts.
Wonderful Introduction to Metaphysical Ideas
I've been looking for a good metaphysical primer book to recommend to friends, family etc.. that incorporates many so called "new age" (old age) ideas like karma, forgiveness, non-judgment, positive thinking and manifestation etc... and this is a good one.

Excellent book!
The advice, case studies and 44 practical exercises are worth the money for this book. Mr. Hewitt gives sage advice in this book.

GREAT BOOK FOR BEGINNERS-COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN
I liked this book as it touched on the basics of psychics. If you are looking for something deeper, this isn't it. But if you are just learning about it, this is a great starter book. The cases are excellent along with the topics and exercises. Well put together.

A great beginner's guide!
If you are looking for some quick and easy exercises to bring out or enhance your innate psychic ability, this is your book. I consider it a "must-have" for anyone. I actually read it pretty much in one sitting! The book contains many exercises and meditation techniques which in many cases can be done almost anywhere, anytime. With just a little practice and perserverance, they really do pay off!

Liberalism Under the Guise of Ghandi
I found this book rehashed a lot of her old books which I used tohighly recommend to everyone. She kept using the term "democracy".We are a republic, as anyone who recites the Pledge of Allegiance knows.She is anti-gun, using the term "gun violence" and says the gun manufacturers are in it only for the money.We used guns to extricate/defend ourselves from the British, and would probably still be under their control if we had used what, bows and arrows safe enough for you?Also used guns to "win the west".The problem is not guns but the psyche of those who use them in a bad way.The countries with gun control have the highest rate of violence - England, Australia.She sheds tears for the abortion clinic worker who has to wear a bullet-proof vest but sheds none for the unborn. Yet she says we don't take good enough care of our children in America.She can't have it both ways, baby!!

Extremely intelligent, articulate, and profoundly moving!!!
This is an absolutely wonderful book!!!It is a must-read for anyone who would like to see changes made in the world, and especially in the political system. Written at the dawn of the millenium, it is even more profound and timely today.Every page has quotes worth saving, every example has meaning, every solution resonates.Ms. Williamson is a very talented writer, and she has cut to the heart with this book, in more ways than one.She outlined very articulately EVERYTHING that has been bothering me. She not only nailed all of the problems, but she also gives solutions, and provides blueprints and resources. The Time is Right to Read This
I bought this book (published as "The Healing of America") in 1997, and it sat on my bookshelf for five years. Picking it up recently, I felt a chill of recognition as I read its contents. America is on the verge of a renaissance or a catastrophe, she writes, and Islamic terrorists manipulate the masses with tales of our superficial values. Williamson was clearly onto something.Read more
