How about the remote viewing part ?? "Force Communication" Master ?? surely you believe there must be some truth in that after all of our conversations regarding the subject.


Maybe I should have said: don't agree with all of it?
Or rather.. how it was presented? I think maybe both of those.
It has been quite a while since I read it, I just remember I didn't enjoy it as a whole.
Perhaps I should try it again. :P

What one would perhaps keep in mind here, is that there's agreeing (?) and "agreeing" ...

I read "The Field" and "The Bond" -- and honestly, they're not very good books. On the other hand, there's something to it ...

When one listens to what she, and others, say about her subject matter, it 'just makes sense'. Moreover, we probably know something about that anyway. Regardless of how badly it is written.

But then again, if she had just written another another Veda, it wouldn't have sold millions of copies.

:unsure:

As to whether or not is okay to disagree with it : it is better to be honest than to try to impress us with raving praise of what [many] of us found to be rubbish as well ...

hankyou for your input Master Orion, I appreciate your take on the matter, I personally found the book mundane, but the subject matter interested me greatly and I personally think there's a valid truth to it as evidenced in my journal with all the "whoa" and "my mind is blown" hahaha.

I didn't actually read it. I listened to the audio and I'm not sure how much it actually followed the book, but I found it rather interesting. It just made things that I've experienced and felt make more sense to me.

There were other things so far that I didn't necessarily agree with or found lacking something, so you're not alone in that.

In all seriousness, it is more important for you to get something from it then tell us how wonderful something is. One of the smartest people I know wrote this about The Field....

It was interesting listen to an average individual contemplate quantum physics. And kudos for the effort.



It is important for you to be honest. Not just to us, but more so to yourself. ;)


PS, the person that wrote that really isn't all that smart... but don't tell him I said that
. ;) :whistle: :P

I was pretty excited after reading "The Field" and felt it was pretty good, and made logical sense.

THEN

I read Dawkins and Carl Sagan

I'm not so high on "The Field" anymore.

Kudos to tzb for being smarter than I was...
