The Celestine Prophecy parchment (and it is fiction you know right?) sounds good, but it doesn't say a lot other than let's be positive and loving
and that in itself is as old as sin and contained within the much shorter, much older, and much better written 'golden rule.' Other than that there
didn't seem much added beyond some VERY non-sepcific hoo-doo about vibrations and such.
My personal experience with the Celestine Prophecy author and a group of semi-active followers, was co-ordinating some get-aways together in the woods
in which I participated as well.
I personally found the author to be demonstrably neurotic, timid, and wishy-washy, and the 'Celestine' group that I helped organize a getaway with,
to be fairly common hedonists looking for a feel good philosophy that doesn't require much personal commitment or any change in lifestyle.
If you find it, The Celestine Prophecy that is, deep and inspired, then that's cool. I found it to be shallow and poorly written fiction and,
further, meeting with the folk mentioned above did nothing to change that opinion.
As parties go, it was decent. As far as being exposed to life-changing philosophy...it was a decent party as far as parties go.
