I really wish you would stop doing this. This is a terrible thread and no one cares about your pseudo-mystical claptrap. I apologize, but that's just the way it is. :(

When all else fails, quote someone reputable out of context and use that quote to further a point that has no relation to the quote.

I love you so much I don't care what you think.
That said, I would be happy if you or anyone actually read the book (check for yourself), and that's why I Bump this.
If you check it for yourself (read all), then you can have an opinion of it. Only if you read all, because if you only read the first pages it doesn't make sense... you have to read all to have a real opinion of the first pages.
And the fact I don't care what you think means I won't judge your opinion, even if it's not same than mine.

I watched part of the video and read the first few pages of the book. It's clearly a bunch of psuedo-mystical bullshit that someone made up in order to get money out of suckers. I don't have to go through 224 pages to understand that fact. It's obvious that she's ripping off other mystical traditions that make a hell of a lot more sense than this bullshit, then vomiting it out so that you'll buy her a car.

Why do you care so much about money ?
Just read/watch, so you can have an opinion and don't give them money... They only ask you to listen or read, you don't have to pay for that.
According to the current laws, you should pay for music and books you download... That makes more sense for you ?
If you prefer buy the next new useless commercial product you don't need it's up to you.
I agree with what that woman Abraham Hinks says, but I didn't gave her any $ or €... I just listen free on youtube.
I gave few $ to the truth contest, because I have some extra I don't need for myselt, and it makes more sense for me to use it that way, than buying any commercial product I don't need.

Edit : Here is an other exemple : People go to church, and give money when church is asking it.
I would give money too, if they had and spread a correct interpretation of the truth/life... That's not currently what they are doing, so it makes no sense for me to give them money at the moment.

The point is, her teachings are a less coherent and developed form of religions like Buddhism and Taoism. Why not just learn from the 2,500 years of philosophical development rather than the new age ramblings of a person who has a hint but is too quick to teach before she really understands?

You believe so, but I know it's not right, because I live... I can check things for myself with my senses including my rational mind.
If you prefer have blind faith in 2500 years of lie, I respect that but won't follow you.

Do not go by revelation;
Do not go by tradition;
Do not go by hearsay;
Do not go on the authority of sacred texts;
Do not go on the grounds of pure logic;
Do not go by a view that seems rational;
Do not go by reflecting on mere appearances;
Do not go along with a considered view because you agree with it;
Do not go along on the grounds that the person is competent;
Do not go along because "the recluse is our teacher."
Kalamas, when you yourselves know: These things are unwholesome, these things are blameworthy; these things are censured by the wise; and when undertaken and observed, these things lead to harm and ill, abandon them...
Kalamas, when you know for yourselves: These are wholesome; these things are not blameworthy; these things are praised by the wise; undertaken and observed, these things lead to benefit and happiness, having undertaken them, abide in them.
