The Celestine Prophecy is a 1993 novel by James Redfield. It has sold over ten million copies worldwide.

The book discusses vegetarianism and various spiritual ideas, which some regard as having New Age characteristics. It tells the story of one man's search for truth and the meaning of life.

• Becoming aware of the "coincidences" in one's life.
• Experiencing a heightened understanding of world history and human evolution.
• Becoming aware that all living things have energy fields.
• Becoming aware that people try
  
  
  
  to steal other people's energy, creating conflict.
• Realising that control dramas do not help you or others.
• Becoming aware that you have a dream and a destiny to fulfill.
• Becoming aware that many of your thoughts and actions are guided.
• Realising that other people sometimes provide the answers that you seek.
• Understanding that humankind are on a journey towards living in perfect harmony with each other and nature, as our world evolves over the next 1,000 years into an Eden-like paradise.
