3.0 out of 5 stars Exanding a new vision through the facinating Sylvia Browne., September 28, 2000

By A Customer

Soul's Perfection - Journey f the Soul Series, Book 2

I have read all of Sylvia's recent books and this one to be largely in keeping with her other`s, with a concentration on how to cope in this "incarnation on earth", Karma and Synergism. There is discussion about Life Themes and both Life Themes and the Tenets for Living are restated and defined (from another of her publications). We again hear from Francine and Raheim, Sylvia's Spirit Guides.

The thoughts in this book are not as well organized or presented as her in other books. Francine starts out with very few preliminaries from her or Sylvia, this would make it a difficult beginner book for someone who has not read others. Francine does not "sound" like the Francine in other publications. If you feel you have had a sense of how she speaks from past books, she speaks very differently, as a matter of fact Francine, Sylvia and Raheim all "sound" quite the same. There are quite a few meditational exercises which are nice and some repetition from her other books which reinforce and expand what you are learning from Sylvia, whether you accept her philosophy or not.

I have found there to be great inconsistency within and between each of Sylvia's books, "Soul's Perfection" appears to be consistent within itself. If you are seriously intrigued by the philosophy of: "Gnostic Christianity", a contradictory name; the Society of Novus Spiritus; or a presentation on what "heaven" is or might be like, this will continue your journey. I have found these books to be fascinating and it has caused me to think very hard about my learned belief system. I look forward to the next book, they seem to be coming very fast which my be the reason for the lack of organization of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Skeptics,This May be Legitimate!, October 29, 2000

By A Customer

Skeptics, this book may be legitimate. Have you ever watched Sylvia on Montel or the Larry King show? People call in, and she can tell them all kinds of information about their families, jobs, and loved ones they have lost. She's usually very accurate in her readings of people who she has never met and who have not given her any previous information. I thought all this stuff was ridiculous until I saw with my own eyes what she actually demonstrated on the Larry King show. Furthermore, I understand that when she quotes Francine, her spirit guide, about God and spiritual matters, Sylvia is under hypnosis and the words are flowing without any conscousness or awareness on her own part. The only way you could dispute what she says under hypnosis is if you think that she is just lying and making it up in her books. After seeing Sylvia on TV, I believe she is very direct and honest, pulls no punches about anything, and yet has compassion for her callers. I would like to add that many of her observations and powers are very similar to the information that comes from George Anderson and James Van Praagh, who have also demonstrated their remarkable powers of observation of the afterlife for grieving persons on TV and in individual sessions. Sylvia's work also matches well with the observations of Walsch's Conversations with God books, which have inspired thousands of lives. These writers are so similar in their statements of an all-loving God, that there is no hell, that our loved ones are close to us, that we judge ourselves when we pass away, that heaven is wonderfully beautiful and joyful, that there is reincarnation, that God lives in us and we in Him, that Jesus was a messenger of God, that our loved ones and beloved pets greet us when we die, and that the purpose of suffering is to learn and grow spiritually. I know that the works of Browne, Anderson, Van Praagh, and Walsch have changed my life for the better and given me great new hope that I have not received in church, having been both a Protestant and a Catholic. I now love others easier, forgive others, am joyful and more at peace, and truly believe that there is a wonderful heaven awaiting me. Rather than just reading some of these authors' works, you should also see appearances by them on TV and see their insight into people and their communication with the afterlife when they are given no prior knowledge. Yes, I'm a very skeptical person, and I had to see it to believe it. I have always been a "doubting Thomas." I highly recommend all of Sylvia's books. I find that they work in my life and I feel my love for God and people have greatly increased. I would like to add that most of the reviewers who dismiss this book and Sylvia's other works really have not shown any definitive proof or logic to back their claims. They just say it is nonsense, but that doesn't add anything to the conversation. I would recommend this book and others by the authors I mentioned if you are open and want to love God and others more fully, be more joyful, and realize the wonderful life you will have when you reach "the other side."

1.0 out of 5 stars What is she DOING?, October 8, 2000

By	James Miller (Laurel,De.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Perhaps the pressure is on from her publisher to crank out books at a frenetic pace - whatever the reason, there isn't much new information in this book (and I've read them all). The writing is disjointed and sometimes irrelevant; a clear sign that this book was put together much too quickly and without the benefits of a good editor. Considering all that Sylvia does in the typical day, how could she possibly keep putting books out at this pace and keep the information new and fresh? Chunks of this book were taken out of previous ones. I'd rather suggest to new readers that they read her earlier books, which were spiritually uplifting and much better written. I'm concerned that Sylvia is falling into the trap of commercialism and losing sight of her original goals. I used to truly enjoy her blatant honesty and quirky sense of humor, but now she's coming off as opinionated and borders on rudeness. I miss the old Sylvia! My advice for the book: pass this one over and opt for one of her earlier publications.
