Beautiful book, great narration

Great guidence and Jeffrey Hopkins is a pleasure to listen to.

Perfect, if you do this…

Great content, great performance. However, if you speed the narrative up to 1.3x it makes the reading MUCH better. I keep it at 1.0x speed if I’m listening at night and want to fall asleep.

Great Spiritual Guide

This is an amazing book. It think it was well presented and a valuable spiritual tool. It is not for the beginer though. Be aware that it is full of spiritual advise and knowledge but it may be advanced for the beginer. I loved it!

Great book

This book was very interesting but the narrator was awful! I stopped listening to the book because I was beyond bored with Jeffrey Hopkins. I will read the book instead of listening to it.

as good as anything
