Oprah Mumbo-Jumbo

I am often times annoyed by how Oprah thinks she is a god.
Listening to her talk about her latest Book Club book, The New Earth, made me curious as to what this was all about. I read the book excerpt:


Building on the astonishing success of The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle takes us beyond our own lives to show that we now have an opportunity to birth a new. more loving world. This involves a radical inner leap of consciousness from the current identification with our ego to an entirely new way of thinking about who we are. For this to happen, the very structures of the human mind would need to undergo an evolutionary transformation.In A New Earth, Tolle shows how this transformation can occur not only in ourselves, but in the world around us. In illuminating the nature of this shift in consciousness, Tolle describes in detail how our current ego-based state of consciousness operates. He then gently and in very practical terms leads us into this new consciousness. We will come to experience who we truly are, which is infinitely greater than anything we currently think we are.

Mostly it just makes me sad that people look for the meaning of life in all sorts of places, but never see the true answer that is Jesus Christ!
The savior who died on the cross to take away the sins of the world. The man who sacrificed his own life so that we may have eternal life. All we have to do is ask that he be our personal Savior. Then there is no need to look any further. It is not about illumin
ating our states of consciousness that can give us an answer to the meaning of life.
That's all just
MUMBO JUMBO!!

Oh Chloe....
People DO care about what Oprah thinks. That is the frightening thing. People follow blindly.
She is leading them astray!

I just saw your blog (I'm a bit behind). Anyway, when I read about Oprah's latest book I was also disappointed. She needs to get off her "become a better person" kick. I am tired of self-help books! You're right, Kari. Oprah has too much media power in this country.
