		<description>Hi Joe, I love the book and the 6 CD package. I have a fabulous inspiration for a product. I wrote you a long email last week, (2nd week in July) and have not heard back. So I am trying this way to connect with you. I really, really, really believe I am supposed to partner with you for this amazing product. I will resend the email. It will have my phone number in it.
With joyful anticipation,

		<description>Hi PJ,

I&#039;m sure the quotes are exact since Dr. Len is the one who said them.

I&#039;m pretty sure after 25 years of saying pretty much the same thing, he might say the same thing to me, too.

And since he&#039;s the co-author of our book, I&#039;m sure he had a chance to see them and approve them, or not, as he wished.

The real problem now is that people will see your review on amazon and think negative and not even get the book.

That was unfair to me, Dr. Len, the book, and all those potential readers.

I&#039;m cleaning on it.

Blessings,

joe</description>

		<description>I can imagine that if Dr. Hew Len tells a story as many times as I&#039;m sure he has, he tends to repeat himself.  My attention was caught by the fact that what you wrote in the book duplicates EXACTLY (including punctuation and italics) what was written in the 1997 article.  Here is a cut-and-paste from the article:

(begin quote)

Cat:  Would you tell a story about using Ho&#039;oponopono for so-called inanimate objects?

Haleakala:  I was in an auditorium once getting ready to do a lecture, and I was talking to the chairs.  I asked, &quot;Is there anybody I&#039;ve missed?  Does anyone have a problem that I need to take care of?&quot;  One of the chairs said, &quot;You know, there was a guy sitting on me today during a previous seminar who had financial problems, and now I just feel dead!&quot;  So I cleaned (this word is in italics in both sources) with that problem, and I could just see the chair straightening up.  Then I heard, &quot;Okay!  I&#039;m ready to handle the next guy!&quot;

What I actually try to do is teach the room.  I say to the room and everything in it, &quot;Do you want to learn how to do Ho&#039;oponopono?  After all, I&#039;m going to leave soon.  Wouldn&#039;t it be nice if you could do this work for yourselves?  Some say yes, some say no, and some say, &quot;I&#039;m too tired!&quot;

(end of quote)

Compare to pages 63 and 64 of your book.

If I misinterpreted, I apologize.  I am simply struck by the fact that both quotes are exact.  One would think there might be some variation between both tellings of the same story (and some variation in the writing), given that they were 10 years apart.

My best to you, Joe.  I wish you well.</description>

		<description>Hi Joe,

What ever you are selling, I&#039;m buying.  I for one am grateful for the links on where to find more stuff!  I get about one email a day from you, some I read all the way through, some I just skim and realize it is not for me; all of them are welcome.  I have taken Miracles Coaching from you; Bill Hibbler&#039;s course on ebook mastermind; purchased several books; purchased 40 copies of The Secret to pass out - all because you or someone else let me know they were available.  
Your &quot;Zero Limits&quot; book was the answer that I have been looking for all my life - I just want to help people, now I can.
Thank you so much and keep the info flowing,
Kim
PS I got my Smart Car after clearing, see www.attractioncenter.com and click on the trip.</description>

		<description>Joe, those whom your ideas threaten will attack your motives and your very being.  Let them continue in their own pathways, while you continue in yours.  Practicing what you preach will produce more and more peace, over time. As Dr. Len says in your great work, it takes time. I love you, I&#039;m sorry, Please forgive me, and thank you.  I am grateful for your work.</description>

		<description>wow. pj&#039;s comment that i lifted a conversation with dr. len from someone else&#039;s writing is quite bold. and inaccurate. just ask dr. len. we were both in the hotel when it happened. i&#039;m shocked someone would even think that of me, especially when it&#039;s such a cruel statement. amazing.</description>

		<description>Here I a quote a read one time that is appropriate. However, I have forgotten the sorce. (Not really, we all know the real Source.)

If a book and a head meet, and the resulting sound is a hollow one, it is not necessarily the fault of the book.

Nuff said.

		<description>I remember when I first read Jerry and Esther Hicks &quot;Ask and it is Given&quot; I knew that the universe had brought something into my life - that would change my life. And it did. Funny thing is - I get something different out of the book - each and every time I open the book. Zero Limits - feels like that. Pick it up and your going find something new - something different about it. People get - what they think they are going to get. Envy - of anything - can come up as anger - or frustration.(in reference to some of these previous comments)  One thing I know for sure - this is a process. It&#039;s taken me two years to get where I am today. If you want enlightenment - in my own opinion - it won&#039;t come from just one book and it won&#039;t come overnight. But it is a step in the journey - and if you can incorrporate that book into your journey - learn and succeed from it - I believe the Universe will respond with the next step towards enlightenment. 


I had the opportunity to read your article about Ho&#039;oponopono. I read it and was eager for more. I researched on my own and found the website http://www.hooponopono.org/ I realized at the time I wouldn&#039;t be able to get to a class financially - and it hurt - like all things do when you want something for enlightenment - for healing - that you know in your heart will help - and can&#039;t because of finances. So - I let go. I accepted within myself that I would someday learn more and attend the class. I had heard through the internet grapevine that you were on a mission to write a book about Ho&#039;oponopono - so I knew it was only a matter of time.

The day your book came out - I thought for sure that Barnes and Noble or Borders would be carrying it. I traveled across the city from one end to the other to get to both stores. I was out of luck. I would have to order it. And I didn&#039;t want to wait! GRRRRR! I was so dissapointed. But I just let go. I told myself - that I was meant to read the book and I would read it. 

I don&#039;t know how - but someone from Wiley Publishing saw a blog I had posted about the Attractor Factor. She sent me an email asking me to review your book. I was floored. To be honest - it has been the best feeling I&#039;ve had in my life. 

I&#039;m not in your shoes - I don&#039;t know or understand what it feels like when someone e-mails to critique or criticize me. 

I know that your books have helped me. I know you hear that a lot. If I could write to Dr. Hew Len to say thanks I would. When I read that he gave you a new name - I cried. I know he&#039;ll be giving me one - someday. 

How do you tell 2 people who will forever be a part of your life - Thanks?  I honestly can say that I will use the technique you gave to me in Zero Limits - the rest of my life. One day I&#039;ll take the class and I&#039;ll learn more - and maybe I&#039;ll get to share what I&#039;ve learned. 

Please know that there are those of us out here that get it - and understand and are grateful. 

So - in this moment right now I love you.
