This was one of the worst books I have ever read. READER BEWARE! This book is insulting and Marlo Morgan has been outed as a liar. She not only has lied about her 'experiences' with 'the Real People' but she also has been exposed for lying about her professional credentials. The sad awful part about Morgan's writing's is that she has not only perpetuated racist and inaccuracies about Australian Aboriginals, but she has also lied to people who are seeking enlightenment. She has lied to people who are looking for help and she has preyed on the very weakest of our society, the spiritually befret, for what? Financial gain and prestige, the very things that she 'preaches' against in her book. The very thing that 'the Real People' would look upon 'the Travelling Tongue' with disgust. Morgan is a Snake Oil Saleswoman, selling a poorly written story about a group of people who don't exist while destroying the integrity, history, and stories of an actual breathing culture. Shame on you Marlo Morgan, I am so glad that I didn't buy this book, that someone gave it to me so that I could include it in my Books to Avoid collection, so that another penny wouldn't go into your lying hand.

The book is amazing. I don't really understand why some group of aboriginals felt offended...that remains a mystery; as the book describes them as very evolved people, even superior than white men. So they should be proud instead of dissapointed.
I think this book is a shock to the system, that's why she got that incredible opposition from the media.
The system is what tried to erase the aboriginal people out of the earth through the centuries, because they are representatives of the Fifth dimension, they had done a very good job, holding the earth together with their collective soul, while the establishment tries to tear the earth and the human consciousness apart.
You see, the struggle between light and darkness is still alive, more than ever.

I just got done reading this book mutant message down under and it really made an impression on me. I don't care if it's fictional or not. The messages in this book sadly may not be heard by the people that should see it the most!! The leadership in this country should concentrate on what is good for the all, instead of being wrong or right. People should only take what they need and no more. They should not be judgmental of others and be more tolerant. I believe our country is in trouble for all the lessons that people would like to ignore because it might be out of their comfort zone to look at. We need to love each other for the individual gifts we all have. And to honor our differences not point fingers. We need to be more tolerant of others. There were many messages in this book that filled me with joy, and also sadness and wished Americans lived their lives more like these people. We are taught in this country to live in our left brains and not to let the creative part out. To work for the American dream, which in the end has just caused us stress, hypertension and unhappiness. The message of oneness is the message I'm taking away from this book,and the uniqueness that each individual should be cherished, and I do believe that one person can make a difference. There wouldn't be as much depression, sadness, lonliness, and unhappiness, if everyone allowed themselves to think of themselves as part of the Whole. I hope others put their energy into thinking more as a whole then separately, and for the good of the ALL.

<My Love and Blessings to you, Dear Marlo. I am Kaylee from Sandpoint, Idaho. Years ago we had a three day outing to experience some of what you did with the Aboriginal Tribe of which you were a member. I am a Retired Holistic MD and we were like sisters. We both KNOW THAT YOUR BOOK IS NON FICTION regardless of what others say. Eitiher way the message is vital now more than ever. We shared a common concern for the Prisons in this country.
I am still in Sandpoint with an incredible park like setting for a community or just a place to really BE. Private Lake and sites for our spitit brothers and sisters. I trust you are well. If can help in any way please contact me. Much Love my courageous Sister. please continue your loving work. Kaylee

Knowingness is obviously well hidden for many people these days. They can not tell when something resonates, because they use their mind(ego). Thank-you for the message!

Thank You Marlo! Mutant Message Down Under & Mutant Message From Forever are books that need to be shared by everyone. We are all one race made up of different shades. We are Forever people. Our purpose is to help each other through our journey and not to judge, but observe. If it is in our highest good for more people to understand this lesson, then let it be so. Forever.

Her book has the capacity to inspire others but at the expense of a self righteous author who prides herself in making her the special/chosen one through deception. If she truly cared that much than she could have given a substantial charity to help the Aborigines and help the Aboriginal land and the fact that she calls herself an Aborigine is in complete ill taste. Inspiration runs deeper when you're inspired by truth, not deception.

Dear Marlo
Even though thanking you is not enough for the message you have given us, it is all I can do for now. Thank you a million times for writing Mutant Message from Down Under. It affected me like no other book ever has. If only we could all act on those important lessons the world would be a different place. Maybe.......

Marlo, I loved reading every second of your book. I believe what happened to you in this book is true and think what happened to you should happen to those who really need a 'wake up call'. You are an amazing writer and thank you so much for sharing your enlightment with us.

We are a varied people despite our one-ness! The "value" of this work is evident in the amount of dialogue and controversy it generates to this day beyond it's creation and publication. Only recently did I become aware of the book and read it and I too have made reference to it in a blog. There after it seemed interesting to do a little follow up which lead to this site.
As I am fond of saying, "you get whatever you want/need from any source." Good or bad is a perception as much as it is a reality. My perception is that we pass judgement readily.
peace!
