"Forgiving the Unforgivable" by Master Charles Cannon

"Forgiving the Unforgivable" by Master Charles Cannon is a spiritual book whose author's teachings come from the Eastern philosophical teachings (mainly India). This book has a foreword by Eckhart Tolle and afterword by Neale Donald Walsch.

The book is narrating a story of Master Charles Cannon and his disciples traveling to Mumbai, India and getting stuck in the Oberoi Hotel where the terrorist attacks happened. Hundreds of people have died and two of their own as well. 

This book is about the spiritual outlook to life and being in the here-and-now moment, from which, the world looks quite different. The Mumbai terror attacks are not the main focus here. 

It's just a spiritual book which talks about our thoughts, attachments, karmic debts and meditation. The information can really challenge and change how one looks into one self, one's life and the world around us. 

This is a healing and calming book. It's written in a quite a simple way and is quite encouraging and enlightening. It does offer a new perspective on how to look at negative things that happen to us, how to react to negative experiences that happen to us and how to transform, heal and grow. 

There are links to the website as well where one can learn more about the teachings. 

"Edgar Cayce on Atlantis" - by Edgar Evans Cayce

"Edgar Cayce on Atlantis" was written by Edgar Cayce's youngest son Edgar Evans Cayce. He went through his father's notes and his past life readings on other people and compiled all the information on Atlantis into a timeline.

The book was first published in 1968 but is still pretty amazing. It has excerpts that describe in detail about where was Atlantis, what was it like, about the technology and beings that existed in Atlantis at that time, about the "flying boats" and subhuman creatures and about the spiritually and materially focused beings who always had a clash among themselves.

It describes the three destruction periods of Atlantis and how the Atlanteans moved to Egypt and the Pyrenees for solace where they created libraries to protect and safe their knowledge and information.

The book is super exciting. The author uses Edgar Cayce notes from his cases and does his own research on archeological findings and compares those together. The book is intelligent and scientific (the author was electrical engineer and a captain during the 2WW). 

I found that there were several messages in the book: it shows that there are many things that we don't really know and that we've regressed as humanity due to our own materialism, greed and identification with things. It was said that 19 out of 21 civilizations were destroyed "from within". Lack of spirituality and not striving to be a better human is what ultimately destroys us. I think it's a great reminder as well as an encouragement for us to go treasure hunting - for the new information on who we really are, where do we come from and what is our real mission and purpose.

A great book!

"50 Shades of Grey" by E.L.James

I was given this book by a friend who said "it's very cool and you'll love it". I have heard the name before but I didn't know what was it about. 

After starting to read the book, it seemed like a very easy to read novel, actually too easy and modern. I liked the modernity and the mobile phones in it (I never read contemporary books). I liked the main character Anastasia and it seemed to be quite interesting at first. 

Then she met Christian Grey - a rich sociopath who was hot and she felt attracted to him. Christian Grey seemed to show an interest to her and from the beginning acted intimidating and controlling. 

Later, he admitted that he would like to try bondage sex with her and she agreed (although she was a virgin and didn't know much about it). 

From there on the author presents us with a lot of rich, juicy and detailed sex scenes and erotic intricacies. At first, I could not believe that all of that was actually in the book (I didn't have a clue before starting, I thought it was a crime novel), then I thought that I actually like it and after it reached page 200, I decided that I actually hate it. 

I think it could be a great book for someone who's super young and find sex thrilling (I don't) and perhaps someone who's in a mood to read all that or someone who seriously needs to better their libido.

Every work has it's own place and role and mission and I know that many people really loved this book and the author/the main character are really very likable, but sex is just not what I like reading about at the moment (plus I really hated that Christian Grey).
