Gosh that's an old one from the early 90s. There was even a best seller explaining The Celestine Prophecy. My ex left them at my place when she left but I never read them.

I think you give the ruling class waaaaay too much credit.

MILLIONS will be unemployed from here out. They will become desperate. They are instigating uncivil war upon the poor who are being forced into criminality (unlike the wealthy who chose it and do MUCH worse damage).

My boss gave me that book 25 years ago and told me it would change my life. Then she quit, so I never felt pressured to read it. That book has been sitting on my bookshelf unread for all this time. With the lock-down, I started to wonder what this Prophecy has to say and picked it up. I actually just finished the book and put up a post about it, if you want more info. Even if you don't believe in it, it certainly gives food for thought: https://saidit.net/s/conspiracy/comments/3yi3/the_book_the_celestine_prophecy_claims_that_we/

Did it change your life?

I just finished it this morning. Now I have to try to apply the principals to my life.

I will tell you, though, that for the last four years, I have been actively fighting state level government corruption in CA. I have felt from the beginning that this is my calling from God, and as frustrating as this fight has been, so many serendipitous things have happened to further my fight that I have no doubts it truly is my destiny. This book affirmed that I am not crazy. :)

I had half a review of your long review typed up, and I didn't get back to finish it before I accidentally kicked out my power cord.

I was saying something about serendipity is just us simply being grateful and recognizing when fortune smiles on us. I'm not a fan of God or fate and luck and all that, but there certainly is evidence that living in gratitude is a better way to be.

Thanks for the review, and please keep up the good fight. I have a similar sense of "destiny" and purpose with my near future cautionary Bittersweet Seeds story that I'm working on. When it's ready for feedback there'll be no shortage of me promoting it here and around. If I don't toot my horn then, no one else will - at least until it gets momentum.

Good luck with your project! I know that one of the reasons we are "waking up" is because we can now easily share date. I'd love to see your tool make it big and help us get to the next, happier level of life!
