3.0 out of 5 stars
FORGET THE BOOK, BUY HIS NEW DVD, March 25, 2006
This review is from: Beyond the Horizon: Visions of the New Millennium (Hardcover)
THE BOOK MOST CERTAINLY LOOSES SOMETHING IN THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION. WHY MERCADO WROTE A BOOK, I DO NOT KNOW. MERCADO IS A VISUAL MEDIUM, SKIP THE BOOK, SKIP ANYTHING EXCEPT THE DVD.

Where have we heard this before? ? ?, October 10, 2003
This review is from: Beyond the Horizon: Visions of the New Millennium (Hardcover)
This book says nothing more than what has been known as long as man has been civilized.Trying to relate everything to some ism,karma,mantra,location of the planets or stars,numerology or New Age has been attempted for time immemorial.Although I have never paid much attention to physics or astrologers,as they never seem to predict anything but the obvious or after the fact,and are great with lingo categorizing everything into a neat little package,I thought I'd give this book a go anyway.
I found nothing new in the book and everything was summed up in the last chapter of self evident truths,which the author basically admits in the end.These truths have been developed throughout the ages and have changed little, if at all.An ideal world where everything and everybody follows these truths is something else and that is why civilizations have had all their trials and tribulations.Perfect little worlds,of communes living in seclusion,meditation and perfection are fine;but to think that all of civilization will live that way is simply not realistic;and could be referred to only as heaven on earth.
In this new millennium,as in the past,change is the only thing that will be constant,and if an author were to address this subject 500 years from now,the keys will remain the same as they were 500 years ago.
Maybe that's all the author is really trying to tell us; follow the truths(keys),and forget all that psychic,astrology,isms and New Age stuff.
