It's All In The Playing
(SHIRLEY MACLAINE)
Shirley Maclaine was the darling of the viewers inthe famous film Irma La Duce. Now she delights more readers through her readers.
Shirley Maclaine is one of the leading proponents of the New Age philosophy. Even if her worst cricts want to set aside her her belief systems they cannot fail to admire her astounding and unflinching attitude of positive thinking , at the very least.
As opposed to the vague theories and wooly speculations that one often comes across in "spiritual" writings, in her books, one is confronted directly with actual facts and incidents occuring in her adventurous life. (And how they abound!). The central theme emerging from this book is that one's attitudes and beliefs determine (and influence) the events occuring in one's life. Yes, influence to the extent of manifesting miracles in desperate, impossible situations. Read the book and stop arguing !
This book tells the story of how her famous book 'Out On a Limb" was made into a television series. From the beginning of filming to the very end the narrative reads like a guide book of ESP phenomena. . . . . .
The shoot for the TV series was at the famous Machu Pichchu, Peru when heavy and continuous rain foiled their crucial takes. Guided by a local shaman Shirley Maclaine actually stops the rain. Just after the shooting was over, the rain resumed!
Her very very dear lover dies. (She is in Peru and he died in England). His spirit visits Shirley and she has a conversation with him!
Her team is filming a seance sequence in Norway. During shooting the seance was no acting. It was real. A spirit " takes over" the medium and has a long conversation. The presence of the spirit disturbs the audio recording equipment . Stranger still, it was noticed later that at the time of filming the event, the radio receivers in Norway went berserk and started receiving Moscow radio.
Since the incidents are the record of actual real life, the book sets one on a course of serious thinking. It leaves a permanent impression on the readers.
