Never heard of it, doesn't sound like something I would read.
 
OY :bugeye: I looked it up. It's written by a dead guy named Seth (Jane Roberts channels him). As one commenter on Amazon.com said it's "the Bible for the whole the New Age Movement".

Now I know why I've never heard of it.

Whatever floats your boat is what I always say.
