The Ringing Cedars of Russia [Englisch] [Taschenbuch]

The Ringing Cedars of Russia, the second book of the Series, in addition to providing a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the story of how Anastasia came to be published, offers a deeper exploration of the universal concepts so dramatically revealed in Book 1. It takes the reader on an adventure through the vast expanses of space, time and spirit - from the Paradise-like glade in the Siberian taiga to the rough urban depths of Russia's capital city, from the ancient mysteries of our forebears to a vision of humanity's radiant future.

REVIEWS

"The Ringing Cedars of Russia invites us to step into a world where love is the primary creative force behind real physical events. This energy of love shows us how to focus on the here and now, in which happiness is revealed. It also guides us in the healing of our relationship with the whole planet."

-- Dr Richard Bolstad, New Zealand psychologist, author of RESOLVE: a new NLP model of therapy and Creating a cooperative world

"The Ringing Cedars Series will impact a new generation of readers, like the works of Carlos Castaneda did for a previous generation -- only this time through awakening the latent spiritual connection each of us has with nature. This is not about a walk in the woods, rather these books catapult us to an entirely new way of being on planet Earth."

-- Steven Foster, American naturalist, author of A field guide to medicinal plants and herbs

ABOUT THE RINGING CEDARS SERIES

In 1994 a Siberian elder told entrepreneur Vladimir Megre a fascinating story about 'ringing cedars' -- trees respected from Biblical times for their power to re-connect Man with the Divine. The elder told him where such a ringing cedar was growing in the Siberian backwoods. Vladimir Megre set out on an expedition to find the tree, but his encounter with the elder's granddaughter, named Anastasia, transformed him so deeply that he abandoned his commercial plans and, penniless, went to Moscow to fulfil his promise to Anastasia and write a book about the spiritual insights she so generously shared with him.

What happened next has thrilled and inspired millions. With no advertisement other than word of mouth, books of the Ringing Cedars Series have sold over 10 million copies in Russia alone and have been translated into 20 languages, making Vladimir Megre one of Russia's most widely read authors. Inspired by the Ringing Cedars, thousands of people are now planting trees, changing their lifestyle and, in search for a spiritual re-connection with the Earth, relocating to new eco-villages sprouting all over Russia and beyond. Thousands of readers have felt a huge creative upsurge and started writing poetry and songs and doing paintings.

These mind-stirring books read like a fascinating novel, have the authenticity of a documentary account and present spiritual insights of incredible depth. Spanning dozens of subjects from child-rearing to gardening, from adventure to the meaning of human life, from megalithic science to breast-feeding and from sexuality to religion, they present an incredibly beautiful and equally practicable vision of humanity's spiritual connection to Nature that helps us understand ourselves and heal our Earth.

As Vladamir Megree, the transcriber of Anastasia's Truth would say: "Wow, Anastasia you are living in tune with nature!" And as we have been warned both by Luddites and sensitives, our mechanical/electronic inventions, one by one erode away our innate abilities to be in contact and communicate with all that is. Two examples: The mature cedar trees of the Siberian Tiaga wish to be cut down and distributed as little discs for folks to wear so that the cosmic radiation they have stored up over 500 years can be reradiated back to mankind. When you plant your garden, stand barefoot in the soil and put some of your seeds under your tongue for a few minutes so that the seeds can read your energy field and bring forth fruits that will heal your weaknesses and make you whole. A delightful and inspiring book. It is the first of a series of 10

The books in this series are so good that the people I've lent them to have ordered their own copies, knowing that they would want to read them again (and again). They are books that you want to live with; they are books you want to live. After reading the ringing cedars series life can never be the same. Book 2 follows the skeptic's journey back into city life, where he asks all the questions the first book may have left you with...and proceeds to answer them.
