Book Description

October 5, 1999
A discussion of the upcoming millenium and its effect on society. The End of the World follows the history of consciousness from the Big Bang into the next century when it is expected that there will be a fundamental change in life as we know it through a move toward global awareness. Various views of this change are presented from the standpoint of many world religions and philosophies.

The authors contend that we are the chosen generation to experience this most historic event. They say it will be at least as significant as when life first appeared on earth millions of years ago.

The authors say it is coming straight at us and cannot be avoided. All of humanity is about to be transformed into something more, better and different.

We are like the deer in the headlights. If we ignore it and do nothing, we do so at our own peril.

"I think that the purpose of life is to revere, relish and contribute.

By revere, I mean-- to cherish each moment, honoring the sacredness of all creation and our own personal existence within a miraculous universe.

By relish, I mean-- to completely partake in the great gift of life, to be 100% present for all the joys and the sorrows, the successes and the failures, the rewards and the lessons, and to simply, but wholeheartedly, enjoy being alive.

By contribute, I mean-- to fully accept that we are each co-creators, that we have something of value to offer and that we each need to be willing to offer the gifts that we are and have to those around us.

I think that everyone has the potential to become more, to be more fulfilled, to be more successful. I think that everyone deserves to have more: more love, more success, more happiness, more wealth and more of all the ideals held in mind and heart. I think that how and what you think, believe and feel creates your reality; and that you can choose how and what to think, believe and feel; and, that you are, therefore, capable of creating a future, a destiny and a legacy of your own choosing. I think that I have the ability and the obligation to help others to see how all that is true for themselves and to be able to make it real.

That is why I write what I write. I am compelled to empower, enlighten and enrich the lives of my fellow travelers."

5.0 out of 5 stars The End of the World (a handbook for the practical idealist), November 29, 1999
This review is from: The End of the World (a handbook for the practical idealist) (Paperback)
If you have, even for a moment, ever thought about how quickly things around us are changing in the world we live in, then you definitely want to dig into this thought provoking...and extremely timely book. Will it scare you? It may. Will it disturb you? Perhaps. Will it empower you? Most definitely! The End of the World mixes humor with well thought out cultural research, it blends a refreshing spiritual optimism inot a subject that has otherwise been described by calamity, disaster and catastrophe. It's a fantastic book for anyone looking to shed some spiritual light onto the perceived darkness of the 'end times.'

This review is from: The End of the World (a handbook for the practical idealist) (Paperback)
Many futurist, spiritually-based writers seem to find reasons why the future is disastrous and find ancient-derived and channeled insights to justify their pessimism. Leslie and Hugh, on the other hand, using wit, extraordinary insight and intuition, well developed reasoning powers, and some of the same information sources, show the extraordinary future that lays ahead for us. All we need to do is claim it. A well written, optimistic and joyous handbook that does and extraordinary job of boiling down complex and sometimes-difficult-to-understand scientific and metaphysical subject matter into easy and entertaining reading. It is medicine and inspiration for all on a self-discovery journey.
