Product Description
This extraordinary book is powerfully offered by a group of teachers who call themselves Abraham. They express clearly and simply the laws of the universe, explaining in detail how we can deliberately flow with these laws for the joyful creation of whatever we desire. Abraham describes this as the time of awakening, explaining that each of us chose, with very deliberate intent, this specific time of great change to participate in this physical experience. This is an empowering, life-changing book that will assist you in seeing your personal life experience as you have never seen it before. The breakthrough book that started a worldwide interest in Abraham-Hicks. A New Beginning I explains in simple terms the eye-opening fundamentals of living a life of health, wealth and happiness. Readers love the practical ideas of Abraham. In the tradition of Jane Robert's Seth Material, this refreshing new book reveals a unique blend of new-age thought with the Western desire for more. An inspiring self-help classic that gets results.

Still awaiting the earthquakes

This book predicted earthquakes on the eastern and western coasts, and the south, and northwestern portions of the US in 1988. Of course, it could still happen...
I have trouble grabbing the big picture and wrapping my mind around the notion we "choose to return to our physical manifestations". I see handicapped, neglected, homeless people and I wonder if an entity actually chose this?
I recently listened to a recording of one of the Abraham channelings. It was interesting. What exactly does Jerry Hicks do?

The best of the Abraham-Hicks books

A New Beginning I : Handbook for Joyous Survival is the best of the Abrahm-Hicks series and can be considered to contain the main messages of Abraham. The other books by Jerry and Esther Hicks are sequels to this edition and contain elaborative information on the teachings in this book. This book easily presents to the reader a philosophy of the creation of personal experience. Like in the Seth books by Jane Roberts, the non-physical entities repeat to us the message that we are the creators of our own life-experiences, through the constant application of the laws of the universe consciously or by default. A new beginning presents us with a practical guide on the way of creating our life-experiences consciously and deliberately the way we want. I recommend this book highly and as supplements, all the Abraham-Hicks books. I also recommend all the Seth books. As they fit together beautifully. A must to every seeker's library.

An Important Book for All
Rating (5)

This is one of those books that can truly change your life - if approached with an open mind...
Within "A New Beginning", the author discusses the laws of the universe, and how by following these laws, one can achieve the life they want. This book is about how important our thoughts are in creating our experiences, including how they attract certain "types" of people into our lives. Exercises are also included to help you utilize these universal laws to attract those experiences/people that you DO WANT, instead of those you'd like to avoid.
It's shown that we are responsible for EVERYTHING we experience, as we are the creators of our current life experiences - therefore, it no longer makes sense to spend time blaming others for our plight. Instead, we need to figure out where we miscreated, and fix it by creating what we do want instead.
Although everything makes a lot of sense, and I can see how my thoughts have impacted my life, I still have 1 question... and that is re: the horrible experiences that some children go through - I'm uncertain as to how they brought those experiences into their lives. But I feel certain that I'll gain a greater understanding of this as I research the other works by this author further.
As a side note, the information included in this book was obtained through the channeling of ABRAHAM - a group of entities in the non-physical universe - through Esther Hicks.
Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in changing some aspect of their life; those interested in universal laws; and those interested in communications from the other side.
I would also recommend that you read "The Power of Intention" by Wayne Dyer, as this is another excellent book on the power of our thoughts, and how we can literally change our life by changing our thoughts.

Universal Truth
Rating (5)

30 out of 30 customers found this reveiw helpful
This book is one of the many books that speak of the Universal laws and Truths of manifesting. I was quite disappointed by one of the readers who reviewed this book and implied at the end of the review that this material could have possibly been plagerzied by a well known spiritual and motivational teacher. Universal laws and truths have existed throughout the ages and the truths are uncovered on a soul level when the spirit is ready to receive them. They are not the discovery or copyright of solely one individual. Source has many methods and many mouthpieces, each bringing and teaching Truth in their own way.
As with many other books on the laws of manifesting, this book adequately outlines the universal laws and gives some great insights. What sets it above most of the others is that it provides non-abstract methods to actually apply these laws without alot of the new age lingo. I also really enjoyed its reading format - sometimes the smaller print books can bother the eyes!
Enjoy this fabulous book. I would also definitley recommend A New Beginning II.

I found this book a little murky especially when I got to the earth quake prediction (a date that came and went already). If you are new to channeled material (like I was) I would not recommend this book or its follow up of A New Beginning II.
If you are interested in Creative Manifestation try Sanaya Roman.
