Wonderful Book, explains alotI

I have learned so much from this book, especially about the difference between the separate self-life and universal consciousness. Many questions have been answered, the truth about Adam and Eve, not what the church told you. The truth about soulmates. Peniel is telling his story, it is mostly in a conversational style to easier to understand. The only complaint is the book is "tight" hard to hold open to read, could be a larger print. This is a must-read if you are trying to grow in your spiritual life and break out of religion and world control.

Wish this world was a better place?

Wish this world was a better place? Wish you had control of changing things? Well, you do have control of changing yourself. And only yourself, for sure. If eveyone wanted to see themselves and change for the better, then this world would be a much better place to be. Right?! Where to start? How to change? Start right here with this book. This book rings your inner bell of truth, touches your soul, and if you really want to change, then you will love it. You will realize that you have found your way 'home' to true unselfish love and a better life. I have read other spiritual books but none of them felt so real and true like this one. I read this book for the first time 4 years ago. I have read it so many times and will continue to do so. It helps me soooo much and leads the way for me; answers my questions. It's truly amazing! I get more out of it each time I read it. This book has totally and positively changed my life for the better. It gives me something real, true and worthwhile to live for. I hope you will read it, finding your path to truth and peace in your heart and soul. I leave you with the other reviews to learn more about the book, specifically.

Clarity and Inspiration for those Thirsty!

The Lost Teachings of Atantis is a book of inspiration. Yes, it definitely challenges how we see the world and what we think of ourselves, but in saying that it invites us to look candidly at how we live our personal life and how we can change it in every waking moment. It educates the reader on how to develope and cultivate their own spiritual growth from an ancient spiritual path minus the tapestry of religion, ritual, or division. In its simplicity, it relates to the reader profound spiritual wisdom in a crystal clear narrative about one mans path to enlightenment. I give it 5 stars!

This book has changed my life and how I look at the world.

The amazing wisdom in this book, by itself, is worth the cover price, but the meditation techniques make it positively invaluable in my opinion. In this incredible book, Jon Peniel encapsulates millenia of ancient history, spiritual teachings, as well as his personal story of growth in a secluded pre-Bhuddist monestary, now desicrated, high in the Himmelayas. Interestingly, the area that Mr. Peniel mentions in this book has recently been 'discovered' by National Geographic explorers. Even more intriquing is the omision by these explorers of the ruins of the monastery which, of course, would contradict most of what modern archeologists consider to be true. The basic principle of this incredible book is that we are all part of a greater whole, sort of like facets of an incredibly-complex and large gem, and that it is only our selfish seperate mentality that keeps us from achieving peace, prosperity, and at-one-ment with the divine. When I say that this volume changed my life, I mean it. I used to be very nervous and preocupied, but studious and frequent use of the meditation methods, I feel, have tremendously improved my life. However, you have to be willing to put alot of time into them, like an hour or two a day. That's not to say that I have acheived the same level as that of the author, it takes a life of devotion to attain such enlightenment as he has. This book also coroborates some of what I've read elsewhere in the works of David Icke, William Bramely, and Stuart Swerdlow.

Ready to Change Your Life?

Yes, this book is the one if you are truly ready to take a good hard look at yourself and begin to change your life! I have been a 'seeker' all my life, but at last I have found the tools I needed to effect REAL CHANGE in the pursuit of self-realization.Mind you, no one says it's easy! But the benefits are startling. It is not only a fascinating story of one man's journey to enlightenment, it is a roadmap for others who seek nothing less to follow. There are many practical suggestions and a detailed regime of meditations and exercises to help you along your path.If you truly want to change your life . . . read this book. I can attest that the teachings have set me free and helped my find my true path back to God. I hope it does the same for you!

For all who have an open mind.

For all who have read or enjoyed the non judgemental teachings of Emmet Fox, Edgar Cayce, Dan Millman, or James Redfield this book is an excellent source for spiritual guidance. It's storylike format helps all of those who simply cannot follow a dry self help spiritual guide book and the author's "take what you want and leave the rest message" definitely makes one feel like this book attempts to reach people at all levels of spirituality while at the same time leaving the reader unpressured to believe in every word that is written within the 300+ page novel. I recommend that any reader with an open mind and sincere desire to raise their spiritual consciousness read this book. I also recommend The Celestine Prophesy and The Tenth Insight By James Redfield, any book by Emmet Fox for all Christian readers, and The Way of the Peaceful Warrior and No Ordinary Moments by Dan Millman for readers who are interested in books that run along the similar paths.
