Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
In Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah, Richard Bach met Donald Shimoda, a fellow pilot with the keys to the universe who barnstormed the Midwest in a Travel Air biplane. Part of Shimoda's secret was a small book, bound in a what looked like suede - Messiah's Handbook: Reminders for the Advanced Soul. 'Open it,' he said, 'and whatever you need to know is there.' Lost for decades and rediscovered, here it is in print at last - reminders for those who have outgrown cynicism and doubt.
Amazon.com Review:
Readers of Richard Bach’s Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah, will recall that said messiah, Donald Shimoda, carried with him a small book entitled the Messiah’s Handbook. According to Shimoda, all Bach had to do was, 'Open it, and whatever you need to know is there.' Now, decades after Illusions was very first published, Bach has made the handbook available to all of us 'advanced souls in training.'
Rather than reading it cover-to-cover, Bach counsels us to close our eyes, focus on the question we want an answer to, then open the handbook at random, open our eyes and read what’s on the page. In this regard, Messiah’s Handbook can be likened to a 21st century version of the I Ching or The Book of Runes, with the same appeal to readers who enjoys such works. Each page is composed of a single, thought-provoking aphorism.
As with all of Bach’s books, at the heart of Messiah’s Handbook is his encouragement to his reader to follow the drumbeat of their dreams without compromise or apology, knowing that we can have what we desire so long as we believe we can. Used as directed, Messiah’s Handbook is a delightfully insightful guide for making those dreams come true.--Larry Trivieri Jr.

Richard Bach is an innovative and inspiring author! I have read many of his books and so many of them have given me new perspectives and outlooks on life.
Rated by buyers -
it saves me having to copy them out of the book and putting them on my wall. I read Illusions very first when it came out nearly 30 years ago. It is as timeless a read now as ever and it is a classic.

I bought this for my middle-aged son, a Richard Bach devotee, for his birthday. He was thrilled! He opens it to a new page every morning to read his lesson for the day. I bought a copy for myself but haven't had time to explore it yet. Soon!

This excellent little book gives quote after quote that linger in the mind.
It cuts through so much "Fairy-Tale" nonsense that we grow up with and get taught as "Gospel Truth" ! In fact , it is a real step forward towards getting beyond obsolete attitudes and absurd beliefs . It gives one a refreshingly realistic perspective on what we are probably all doing here on this planet. So much of it rings true , for me ,at least !
I, personally , love it and give it top rating. Bravo, Richard Bach !

While I've read all of Richard Bach's books, this little book is a great reminder of things we may have forgotten. I highly recommend this book.
