I rarely write an article that isn't planned out to the inth degree. This one is one of those rare ones so if I seem a little disconnected, excuse me. I don't intend to be disconnected; the purpose of this article is CONNECTION; our's and God's.

Have you ever read the Celestine Prophecy? It is a book by James Redfield and when he first wrote it he couldn't get a publisher to touch him and his manuscript with plastic gloves and a yard stick. That was years ago and now he has written the 4th in his series. The Twelfth Insight came out this months to rave reviews from those of us who have been waiting for it to arrive. I only wish it were required reading for everyone of every religion in the world. This is a broad statement, I know. I don't make it lightly. I am not even finished with my Kindle copy and I already know how very important this book is to mankind and the current affairs and events in the world today. Scared yet? Well, you should be and you should also be open to reading this book and learning what you, yourself, can do about what is happening. It is really very simple.

The first book of the series, The Celestine Prophecy, told the world of an ancient manuscript and what it did for the people that wrote it. Those who read it really tried to work the book. I can remember meeting people every day that were reading it; people I would never have suspected of a spiritual or a New Age bent. As the years passed by we waited for the Tenth Insight and gratefully received it and integrated it into our lives as best we knew how. Then we read the Secrets of Shamballa but we waited for the Twelfth Insight. We knew it would come when it was needed most. That is what Redfield's books have taught us.

If you are a religious person, you definitely need to read this book. I am certain after the first three pages you will think I have lost what little sense I once had but don't stop; keep on. There is a message especially for those who think they follow the One True Religion. Whether you are Christian, Jew, Muslim, Zoarasterin, Mayan, Hindu, Buddhists, or American Indian the message is for YOU. If you live in a grass hut in some off the map African nation that is over run with mercenaries, this book has a message for you. There is a message for the Atheist and for the people who are waiting for the Rapture. The message is all the same and it applies to every person in this world today whether or not you ever heard of James Redfield or the Celestine Prophecy series.

It is imperative that you read or listen to this book. I don't care if you buy it, borrow it, rent it; just learn what is inside of it. Don't think that there isn't a message out there that will keep us from blowing our world to smithereens because there IS.

The message that the Mayan Calendar is trying to teach us is right there in print for you to read. You don't have to worry about whether or not the world is going to end; you need to learn how your world can and will continue.

I can't keep writing now. I have to go read about the eleventh insight. You go and get a copy and read. Then ask me or Mr Redfield or anyone who has read the book to explain what you don't understand. Turn your neighbors and family onto this book. It is our way of survival and it has been right there waiting for us. Don't let it slip past you.
