As the title suggests, if you were stuck on a desert island and could choose just 3 LOA/manifestation books, what would they be?

joelr · 03-30-2009, 06:51 PM

"Nature Of Personal Reality" by Jane Roberts/Seth
"How to Know God" Deepak Chopra.
then a coin toss - "How to Get What You Really really Want" Wayne Dyer or
"Power of Myth" Joseph Campbell. That's not LOA per say but Joe takes all of histories mythologies and shows how to interpret them and the similarities. LOA end up being one of the main thematic motifs running through everything.
The Garden of Eden Mythology is traced back to Africa, complete with the serpent and tree of knowledge and immortality. Woah! This book is a spiritual journey. It's even better to listen to the audio interview and hear Campbells voice.

I've read all the authors from The Secret, What the Bleep, Hannell, Abraham etc.. All great stuff! For me Seth, Deepak and Wayne are my favorite.

Be good to get some other suggestions.

Wow, joelr mentioned some good ones! I like Dyer's Meditations for Manifestation. It really works.

SarahLuvzYu · 03-31-2009, 04:45 AM

The Secret!! Kidding...

I actually haven't read many but I would say...

The Celestine Prophecy - Not exactly LOA/manifestation and it is fictional but it does relate to such things and is very spiritual, an AMAZING book. I recommend it

Oh and The Power of Now by the Tolle dude. I haven't read it, haven't had the time. But if I was on a desert island I would have tons of time

and the other would be a folder of Steve Pavlina articles

A Course in Miracles - Because, well, damn. I just don't get this book. It's also extremely long.

I am That (http://www.maharajnisargadatta.com/I_Am_That.pdf) - Same as above. Also very long.

Ask and it is Given - You simply learn from this book every time you read it.

movablecyn · 04-01-2009, 04:36 AM

I've only recently started getting into LoA, but if I had to answer the q, I would definitely say - Science of Getting Rich & The Nature of Personal Reality. Don't have a third.. yet!

I just started reading this, but the 1st 30 pages are blowing me away:
Creating Money: Keys to Abundance by Sanaya Roman and Duane Packer

I think I'd have to bring this along too!

JJwTheCrew · 04-04-2009, 08:47 PM

For me, the first two that popped into my mind was

Secrets of Success by Sandra Ann taylor

and Ask and it is given by Esther and Jerry hicks...

i have to think a bit more on the 3rd one.

Ive read a lot of L.O.A books some good and some bad,the three that I've read the most are these:

1.Paul Mckenna (English)-Change your life in seven days.
2.Bob Doyle (American)-Wealth beyond reason.
3.Charles Haanel (American)-The master key system.

I would say Charles Haanel understands L.O.A. best but if you've ever read Shakespere you'll get my drift,you have to read it over and over to really get it.But that guy had a brilliant mind.

His story about the battleship,being planned going thru congress the guy that came up with the equation of how iron floats on water,the smelting process.The launch,families waving the crew off etc. was staggering for me.

Stuart Wilde (English/American) is also worth a mention,his rants at the govenment (Tick Tock) and the establishment,in fact at everyone are just spectacular and humerous,I'd also take a CD by Jim Rohn (American) brilliant and funny,great voice.That's more than three,who cares.Never follow rules.
