Cosmic timing July 24, 2008 114 out of 116 found this review helpful
A great contribution to the debate from Stephen Richards. Most of us CO devotees have to put up with the odd jibe from friends about being nuts in planning our futures by the stars. But with this type of guide from Stephen Richards, and the intervention of a media giant like Noel Edmonds, it doesn't seem that funny any more.
A step-by-step plan for creating affluence and fulfilment in all areas of life July 2, 2008 115 out of 116 found this review helpful
Over the past 40 years I've read an extensive range of books on spirituality, self-help and self-fulfilment. This is one highly respected book, and has made a unique contribution to Mind, Body and Spirit readers like me. There is something deep inside this book that seeks to propel us through life to become all we can be.
This book enables you to experience the power of your spirit and what it can achieve for you. A carefully crafted book, it is filled with ancient wisdom and modern insights...a practical guide for those on a spiritual journey as well as those on a journey of hope. Forget wasting all that money on `I Can Make Your Rich' and `Change Your Life in Seven Days' books. This is a book of awakening the secret to creating affluence in your life. The entire physical universe with all its abundance is there to be taken, this presents a step-by-step plan for creating affluence and fulfilment in all areas of life.
I believe this is a book borne out of a deep personal need by the author. Stephen Richards found himself searching for a way to reconcile his spiritual and creative longings. Fulfilment for him came along in the guise of cosmic ordering. As well as guiding the reader to making contact with the universe, we also get snippets of the author's own spiritual journey.
Embrace the gentle lessons and you will emerge from the wilderness of life into a light of abundance and peace. Most certainly, after 40 years of searching for what was right for me, I have found a spiritual transformation that now illuminates my life.
This book will help you. May 11, 2008 127 out of 127 found this review helpful
The most valuable thing about this book is the inspiring passion with which it is written. But if you want a more structured and hence more helpful advice on positive changes in your life, I'd recommend a book by Dr. Robert Anthony "The Ultimate Secrets of Total Self-Confidence". There are many authors writing about basically same thing - the ways of making your wishes come true. The amazing fact of life is - it is all possible. However, I think there are many people out there, who'd be put off by the mere mention of "magic", "cosmic", etc. If you are one of them, bear this in mind: YOU will have to do all the work, not a fairy, not a pixy, not an angel. The magic these authors are reffering to is simply a common sence. Only in which case do you think you'll make a better job out of your life - when you are nugged into doing well under the threat of not getting a prize in the afterlife, being at the same time constantly reminded that you are so bad, you haven't got a chance to get it anyway; or will you do better being inspired to do the best you can because it is great fun.
A strange but valuable book April 8, 2008 135 out of 136 found this review helpful
No-one picks up a book on cosmic ordering with an unbiased mind. Many people believe implictly in the principles of cosmic ordering; others are profoundly sceptical, though those in the latter category are unlikely to read a book like this in the first place, and would probably dismiss it out of hand. I've read other books on cosmic ordering, and have to say that some of them were pretty unimpressive. This one is different; here's why.
Stephen Richards has a rather unusual style of writing. Initially, this struck me as being simply an extremely conversational tone. The book reads as though it had been dictated to tape and then transcribed. Initially, it seems like one half of a conversation, in which the speaker ranges off into some seemingly-unconnected areas ranging from pyramid theory to the pineal gland to Mayan seers, not forgetting von Daniken. At first, I could not really grasp the point of this eclectic (indeed, at times, seemingly eccentric) approach.
But then the penny dropped. The languid, conversational tone is AN EXTREMELY SUBTLE AND EFFECTIVE FORM OF MILD HYPNOSIS. As you read this book, you are being mildly hypnotised, and thereby prepared. This makes you ready for the acceptance of the action plan set out here. The action ideas are dropped like pebbles into the relaxed mind of the reader, sending out positive thoughts like ripples in a pond. When Richards 'cuts to the chase', the style changes from the languid and conversational to the precise. It's a remarkable piece of writing.
The excellent CD by the same author - even better than the book, in many ways - confirmed to me that the aim is the acceptance of positive thinking through mild hypnosis, following the premise that positive thoughts, however created, will give positive results.
Does it work? My tentative view is 'yes', though cosmic ordering is not capable of scientific proof or disproof. I'm witholding one star here, simply because I don't think 'cosmic ordering' really connects quite as effectively as the more spiritual school epitomised by Troward, Curtis and Fox. Fox's "Golden Key" is the true miracle tool, utterly brilliant and effective.
This said, Richards' book is a very long way ahead of others in the cosmic ordering field. I'm sure it can change lives for the better. It is to be hoped that it will also lead readers to enquire more deeply and to read Troward et al.
All in all, then, it's a remarkable piece of work. If you buy just one book on 'cosmic ordering', it should be this one.
Diary of my cosmic success February 4, 2008 207 out of 213 found this review helpful
Nov 2007: sitting at home without a job, wondering how I can make ends meet, let alone meet the next red letter bill.
Dec 2007: one of the gifts given to me is a book called Cosmic Ordering Guide by Stephen Richards. I am told that it will change my life. Yeah I've heard that before!
Jan 2008: festivities over and nothing but empty booze bottles for company. Not having anything else to do I get into the book. I find I am magnetised to it like a magnet to fridge, I cannot let go of it as it is so gripping in what it is doing for me. I find my blood rushing with thoughts of how I must give this a try and to place my first order to the cosmos.
I place an order to help me get a job where I can use my degree in economics, as all what the certificate is doing in its frame is gathering dust. The next day I scour the newspapers for a job, nothing! Ahh, but I am still enthusiastic and never give up hope.
The next day I am on the bus (couldn't afford a car, although I had passed my driving test) and someone had placed business cards on the empty seats. I picked one up and there it read: `Have you given up hope of every making it rich? Give me a ring and I will show you how to make lots of money. Phone me on XXXXXXXX'
I tentatively ring the number that evening from a friend's and expect it to be some sort of hard sell scam, but it isn't. The man on the other end is setting up a franchising business and he wants people to come in on the base level, and he wants me! Admittedly, he can only offer a basic wage of 18K PA, but it is a job.
Feb 2008: I am now head of UK accounts, have my own office and name on the door. Oh, and it's good business acumen to have the letters MEcon after my name, my masters in economics! I'm now on 28k PA plus bonuses and I travel to work in my first car I have ever owned!! Now tell me that is not equal to finding the proverbial croak of gold at the end of the rainbow.
Feb 4, 2008: I have just got back from a party weekend in Dublin. On the way home I promised I would place a review for this book and here it is. A fantastic book that changed my life for real, and I am still placing orders with the cosmos that frequently materialise.
