Messiah’S Handbook: Reminders for the Advanced Soul the Lost Book from Illusions

The hero of Bach’s bestselling book Illusions carried a small volume entitled MESSIAH’S HANDBOOK. For decades Bach fans have had one wish: to read the handbook for themselves. Here it is. This edition contains never-before-seen wisdom along with passages from many of Bach’s multi-million copy selling works including Jonathan Livingston Seagull.

Where did you learn all this stuff, Don? You know so much, or maybe I just think you do. No. You do know a lot. Is it all practice? Don’t you get any formal training to be a Master?
They give you a book to read.

And here is the book. Donald Shimada, the mysterious hero of Richard Bach’s bestselling book, Illusions, which is soon to be made into a film. Shimoda seemed to carry the keys to universe with him as he barnstormed the Midwest in a Travel Air biplane. Is he a teacher or a messiah? Part of Shimoda’s secret was a small book, bound in what looked like suede, called Messiah’s Handbook, which he carried with him and frequently quoted.

Open it, he said, and whatever you need to know is here. As Bach was taught by Shimoda, hold a question in your mind … close your eyes … open the handbook at random … pick left page or right … open your eyes and read the answer to your question. Here is never-before-seen wisdom, taken from many of Richard Bach’s extraordinary books. The wisdom in this book is profound. As in: Here’s a test to find whether your mission on earth is finished: If you’re alive, it isn’t.

Illusions has sold 15 million copies worldwide.
