Illusions

It heals me like i have never before it’s like an gospel which is song by the Messiah to another.

It is a spiritual and adventure read... Similar to the author's bestseller "Jonathan Livingston Seagull", this book comes with a human touch. He has nailed it with those tiny quotations that stay with you. It's a very different approach to writing. Overall, loved the book.

While the message is a strong one, the story is somewhat lacklustre, just like Jonathan Livingston Seagull. But either way, it is worth the time and money spent on it. It is a very short book, can be very easily finished in a single sitting. The Messiah's Handbook quotes that are scattered across the book are very inspiring, while the rest of the story is very rote. Or possibly, this book has inspired some other books which are more entertaining and more moving. (Do check out Neale Donald Walsch's Conversations with God. And maybe even Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig though I'm not sure if this book inspired it, but they both go deeper on the topic than this book). This book, reminds me of The Secret by Rhonda Byrne which I didn't find very enchanting either. The copy I bought is a tiny paperback from Dell Publishing by Random House (The one with the floating blue feather on a black background). The fonts are quite large - easily readable. But the paper quality is terrible. Very low quality of paper is used. The binding is okay though.

Great detailing of messiah Shows indirectly what matters and what is real Illusions indeed if you don't understand what is purpose of life

I read this when I was 16 years old for the first time and it blew my mind. I’ve read it over and over again throughout the years and always find new wisdom in it. You cannot go wrong this with book - it’s wise, funny and so full of depth. A messiah’s handbook indeed! Richard Bach is an amazing writer - I also recommend Jonathan Livingston Seagull by him.

I don't even know how to begin reviewing this masterpiece. From the very first words, I knew something was different about this author. The pull you feel from this book just gets stronger and stronger the deeper you go. I had intense chills running down my spine when I finished it. There really isn't much more I can say about it other than it's one of the best books I've read in my entire life. Richard Bach is an absolute master story teller. Never have I received so much wisdom from such a short read.

Not worth

A well written book.

Se tutti gli adolescenti potessero leggere questo libro sarebbero adulti più felici🩵

(Livre en Anglais) Colis arrivé en temps et en heure sans dégâts. D'une façon ou d'une autre ce livre change notre façon de penser ou de voir la vie. J'ai pris connaissance de se livre via une préface d'un autre auteur, il m'a tellement bien vendu le livre que j'étais obligé de l'acheter, et oui ça eu un très bon effet sur ma façon de voir la vie, un excellent livre que je recommande a tout le monde. Le livre est en anglais mais est très facile a lire.

Na minha opinião, um livro essencial de se ler, não importa se você gosta de estórias profundas ou superficiais. Ele é um convite à reflexão e à reavaliação de tudo o que somos. Quando o ler, imagine-se em cada personagem, por menos ou maior que seja, e repense tudo o que há de divino, mundano, altruísta, egoísta, intolerante, coexistente ou qualquer dicotomia de sua vida e dos seus conceitos. Para quem gosta de literatura densa, não a encontrará aqui, mas encontrará oportunidades mil de refletir sobre sua sabedoria corriqueira, quase de buteco, e essas ponderações podem te levar a grandes momentos de descoberta interior. Para quem não quer algo profundo é uma história muito bonita, sobre um estudante e suas aventuras com um messias que não quer mais cumprir o seu "destino".

And then again, and again, and again. There are high chances it will help you feel better, which is the ultimate purpose of this and every other book

My favourite book, just the first few pages are all I need to redirect me back on my path whenever I lose track. A super fun story. A small book with a huge impact!
