A short excerpt from a YouTube interview (Books That Changed My Life: The Celestine Prophecy...) where two speakers reflect on how the book affected them. Key points: it increased self-trust, suggested that events in life have purpose and should be listened to, and framed humans as having an active role relative to the earth (both earnest and tongue-in-cheek).
And so if I was just to summarize, like, how did it change your life? What would you say.
Made me trust myself more.
It made me realize that I wasn't like, all of these things that are happening in my life, maybe in other people's life, are for a reason. And it's not to be something. To be dismissed or just move on is to actually, like, listen.
And it just tied things together for me.
Yeah. More be a part of the world than of the world.
I mean, we are the voice for the earth, you know, in some sense, we all have a job to do.
Or we're a sharp stick in the ass for the earth.
Sun don't shine out of dog's ass every day.
