Who Wrote The Celestine Prophecy?
The Celestine Prophecy book was written by James Redfield in
1993. James Redfield grew up in Alabama, USA and was raised in
the ways of the Methodist Church. Later he became more interested
in Eastern philosophy and it is here that he likely developed the
spiritual ideas which were presented in the book.
What Is The Book About?
The book is fictional. It is a made up story about an American
man who is told of an ancient manuscript in Peru containing centuries
old wisdom and predictions about life. Off he travels and meets
all sorts of goodies and badies along the way. The goodies want
to learn more and follow the wisdom but the badies want to get rid of
the manuscript primarily because it threatens their power.
Why Did It Become So Popular?
I first heard of it in 1996 but I never felt compelled to pick it up
and read it until 2010. There is probably no known reason why
some books become popular and others do not. The ideas presented
in The Celestine Prophecy book, namely 9 insights into humanity and the
universe are attractive to all those in the new age, spiritual thought
realm.
What Does The Book Say?
Briefly the insights are...
1. That coincidences are for us to take notice of with more than a
passing brush off.
2. History and the ages can be understood when taken in context of a
larger perspective of evolution.
3. We are becoming aware that everything is made of energy and we are
all connected.
4. We don't realise it but we compete with each other for energy and
this is what breeds conflict.
5. We can connect to the energy of oneness and receive energy
consciously this way instead of competing to get energy from other
people.
6. We each develop a strategy in childhood to get energy from those
around us and we continue this in adulthood. The four strategies
are intimidating, interrogating, being aloof or playing 'poor me'.
7. Once we can see our control strategy and those of our parents we can
become clearer on why we were born to that family and what our life
mission is.
8. Become whole and support others by giving them your energy willingly.
9. As we evolve we raise our vibration and this is nurturing and
fulfilling for ourselves and the planet.
