Messiah's Handbook: Reminders for the Advanced Soul

by Richard Bach

Book Overview

Foreword The last time I saw the Messiah's Handbook was when I threw it away. I had been using it as I was taught in Illusions: hold question in mind, close eyes, open handbook at random, pick left page or right. Eyes open, read answer. Always beforeitworked: fear dissolved in asmile, doubt lifted by sudden understanding.Always had I been charmed and entertained by what these pages had to tell me. So that dark day I opened the book, trusting. "Why...

"They give you a book to read"

I keep this book on the shelf with my favorite books. I think of this as a wisdom or oracle type book. It's the 'lost' book from Richard Bach's Illusions. I usually pick this up when there's something bothering me, or something big is going on in my life. Sometimes I open it up, and get nothing (or so I think at the time). Then, there are times when I open it up and amazed at what I find! For instance, I was trying to decide WHY I should go into a certain career. I was back and forth over "should I do it or not?!" -I picked up this book, and this is what I read: "If God looked directly into your eyes and said, "I command that you be happy in the world for as long as you live," What would you do?" Hmmmm. Think about that! I like this book. Even the times when I flip it open to something and think that it doesn't apply to me, or maybe I didn't like what I read in reference to what's going on with me, I think it's a cool book. I would highly recommend it to anyone. If you're giving someone the book "Illusions" by Richard Bach as a gift, consider really treating them, and give them this book too! When I first got the book, I think I may have read it thru, just to see what it was like. There is a short paragraph on each page.(the pages are like parchment paper, but not as thin) Now, I just pick it up and see what pops out at me. This is an excerpt from the paragraph on the back of the book: "Don't you get any formal training to be a master?" "They give you a book to read."

troubleshooting fate

with the eerie accuracy of this book's mechanics, i do wonder about how fiction it really is. as a big fan of Richard Bach, i immediately jumped onto this newer addition when i became aware of it's existence, and am continually happy with it. the wisdom of the pages posses a very rounded out stability that can be humbling if used correctly. i choose to think you are reading this for a reason you may or may not know you chose, but if you agree with this statement, get this handbook. you won't be disappointed.

Bach, as usual

What can you expect from Richard Bach? Nothing but the best, of course, and so it is with the Messiah's Handbook. The best. However, if you haven't read ILLUSIONS it may be absolutely meaningless to you. (I can't believe you haven't read ILLUSIONS!) Naturally, everything depends on what you're expectations are and this met mine (and all the friends/family I passed copies to) perfectly. Have a knotty situation going on? Open the book at any page and there's an answer. Well, not exactly THE answer but an answer that makes you think, and when you think solutions are always available. Love it! If you buy it, carry it around with you. Use it frequently.

A Small but Powerful Book of Wisdom

The book that disappeared, coincidentally reappears and Richard Bach has now published it. It is a book filled with wisdom and thought provoking statements that will make you stop and think. It is a book that you can read all in one sitting (exactly what I did when I received it!). Or, it is a book that you can open to any page, and read that page, and reflect on it. Have you ever read a book where throughout the book, there is wisdom that you wish you could capture and refer to later? Well, this book does just that. To give you a small sample of the wisdom in the book, below are some quotes: "Life tells you nothing, it shows you everything." "There's a reason you chose what's happening around you. Hang on, live your way through the best you know, and in a bit you'll find out why." "If it's never your fault, you can't take responsibility for it. If you can't take responsibility for it, you'll always be its victim." "Having climbed certain peaks you'll descend no more, but spread your wings and fly beyond." "You do not exist to impress the world. You exist to live your life in a way that will make you happy." "You're master of what you've lived, artisan at what you're living, amateur at what's next to live." "You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true. You may have to work for it, however." In Richard's forward there is a quote from the book, "Every person, all the events of your life, are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you." I would highly recommend this book. And as you read the above quote, I hope you choose to read Richard's newest book, Messiah's Handbook. The book is a wonderful motivator, one that you can refer to on a daily basis.
