I love Peter Russell and have read a number of his books. I was excited to hear his views on 2012. However, there was very little information along those lines in comparison to the meditations. That would have been fine, except the meditations were for me more beginner style meditations. That would be fine too, if I wanted to review those types of meditation practices, because you can always learn more by having a beginner's mind and redoing the basics. It just wasn't what I expected. Still, if you understand what this product is really about, you may enjoy it a great deal and not feel slightly disappointed the way I did. On that level, the meditations are well done and easy to follow. Enjoy.
