Original Epic- Needs a movie on it July 21, 2008
I can some up the book in my own conclusion on our now living reality -
Theres two Religions-
1) Religion of Rules & Formulas (limited logic, left brain)
2) Religion of FREEDOM (boundless wisdom, Right brain)
We question again & again - If Messiah's lived 100's of year ago (WITH WIZARD LIKE POWERS OVER ANYTHING THEY WISH) then why haven't we seen any NOW?
Because We don't want to! We don't want some know it all to shatter our illusions! As you fnd out in this Rear book, & in the demise of Christ in the bible.
Any one into anything (LIFE) WILL LOVE THIS MASTER PIECE
The only book you will ever need to read May 5, 2008

I remember a friend gave this book to me and when i read it I felt life made a little more sense. It is amazing to think we think we have free will and we can change things, but we choose not to. I have read this book maybe a hundred times and it seems always fresh everytime.The book is probulay one of the 20th century classics. I have bought it for a few friends over there years and they have passed the message on "life is an illusion".
The main plot is about a byplane pilot that befriends a messiah that walked out on the job and decided to give rides for dollars in his byplane around the midwest of america. Thoughout the journey the author discovers the true meaning of the universe and you are swept away by the lessons that you learn along the way.

This is for a certain type of person. It's for the type of person seeking medical help for their mental health. But this is the wrong type of book if you have that type of problem. It's for the type of person who is looking for answers to th big question of WHY? Also I don't like this book because some religious cults use this book to brainwash people!

What a good idea this story is based on. The book is easy to read yet full of meaty concepts and interesting questions. I found this moving and provocative and certainly valid from an atheist's point of view.
When you always think of something from one side, it is inevitable that when you see the flip side of the coin, it changes your whole way of thinking.

This is my most favourite book ever and like so many others I too am always buying copies for others. If I ever meet anyone who doesn't love it I can't help but feel a little sorry for them.
The book came to me in such a great way too. I was giving somebody some reiki and they just blurted out something about a reluctant messiah and spoke about a blue feather on the cover, I checked it out, ordered the book, read it and haven't looked back since. It's beautiful.
Now't else to say really.
