"A powerful message for all of us. I was hypnotized by the simple truths and spiritual lessons. Read it and tell everyone you know to do the same." --Wayne Dyer This incredible adventure story--and New York Times bestseller--offers us an opportunity to discover the wisdom of an ancient culture and to hear its powerful message. An American woman is summoned by a remote tribe of nomadic Aboriginals who call themselves the "Real People" to accompany them on a four-month-long walkabout through the Outback. While traveling barefoot with them through 1,400 miles of rugged desert terrain, she learns a new way of life, including their methods of healing, based on the wisdom of their 50,000-year-old culture. Ultimately, she experiences a dramatic personal transformation. Mutant Message Down Under recounts a unique, timely, and powerful life-enhancing message for all humankind: It is not too late to save our world from destruction if we realize that all living things--be they plants, animals, or human beings--are part of the same universal oneness. If we heed the message, our lives, like the lives of the Real People, can be filled with this great sense of purpose.… (mais)
mene: The spiritual practices the American author Marlo Morgan attributes to the Aboriginals in her fictional book "Mutant message down under" are actually a lot more like the world view of the Native Americans. Morgan's description of the Aboriginals is incorrect.
If you liked Morgan's book for the spirituality, I recommend reading "The wisdom of the Native Americans". I wouldn't recommend it the other way around.… (mais)
mene: Morgan's description of the Aboriginals is incorrect, but if you liked Morgan's book for the walking without any modern attributes (Auel's books take place in the European Prehistoric period), I recommend reading the "Clan of the Cave Bear" series, especially the second and fourth book, in which the main characters do a lot of walking (but I suggest starting the Clan of the Cave Bear series with book 1).
I wouldn't recommend it the other way around.… (mais)
mene: If the environmental message in "Mutant message down under" resonated with you and you want to do something yourself, but are not sure where to start, "No impact man" can give you a lot of ideas.
Marlo Morgan no tenía edad ni talante de aventurera, pero la realidad se le impuso con esa fuerza y ese poder que suelen transmitirnos las grandes experiencias. Así fue como vivió una odisea fascinante: un viaje a pie por el desierto australiano en compañía de una tribu de aborígenes cuyas normas de convivencia nada tienen en común con las nuestras. Al coraje que demostró afrontando las penalidades del viaje, se sumó luego el esfuerzo de transmitir sus vivencias en esta novela, que pocos meses después de haber sido editada por cuenta y riesgo de su autora se convirtió en un extraordinario Best-séller internacinal.
Las Voces del Desierto explica la historia de una doctora estadounidense que es invitada por una tribu aborigen de Australia a acompañarlos en su walkabout, un viaje de aprendizaje por el desierto. Despojarse de sus ropas y bienes materiales le lleva tan solo unos minutos, pero desprenderse de creencias y prejuicios le llevará un poco más.
I do not like her style of writing. I liked what she wrote about. This book is Free To Good Home if anyone wants it. I've gotten everything out of it I'm going to. ( )
