The book is a wonderful accompaniment to Frederic Delarue's music. It is a God-based book, so if you are not interested in hearing about God, move away from this book and this review. The book explains the experiences of the man behind the music, which is quite interesting in this man's case. His life changes dramatically when, as a 12 year old boy in France, he is ejected from a car during an auto accident. During the following hours, he has a near death experience. Although not expected to live, he miraculously does come back and he returns with a profound peace and appreciation for his God-given gifts and for life beyond the death that many fear so much. I believe that the music that Frederic channels is right out of Heaven, for surely I have heard and felt nothing else like it. His music speaks the language of your soul. If you are on a spiritual path, I strongly urge you to check it out.
If you are into feeling energy, you will likely feel the vibrations in it as I do.

But, back to the book: Frederic tells you his bio and provides a lot of really good spiritual-perspective advice. I'm not normally much on bios, BUT, I really enjoyed reading this one. Reading about his spiritual path not only helped me to validate some of my own experiences, but also helps you to better understand the beauty of the music. He explains not only his NDE, but some of the other things that happened to him. Where some people would have wallowed in self-pity or packed their heart with anger, Frederic chose to see God's hand in his life and to have faith that there was a reason for what happened that would reveal itself when the time was right. Much like the bird that begins singing long before the sunrise because he has faith that a new day is coming, Frederick chose to have faith in the Divine Plan that was designed for him alone.

This 228 page book is packed with spiritual advice that is RIGHT-ON, in my humble opinion. Frederic also provides his perspective on how each of his 7 CDs came into being and the intended meaning of the music in each. He talks about some landmarks he has found in the desert and on the mountainside. He discusses God, Jesus and the Angels often and how they have played an important part in his life and how they continue to do so. Let's not forget the dolphins, too. Frederic is also a dolphin-lover, as I am. His faith in God is steadfast. It does not change depending on what he has or does not have in the moment.

I would like to share some wisdom from his book, ". . . When I give my power to the ego or to anyone that has provoked anger in me, I lose my power and the strength of clarity and discernment. However, when I give my power to God, or to the Angels, I receive my strength back as I align my true self to the pure divine Creation. . . " So true, and there is much more wisdom within this book, based on Frederic's personal journey. (Seek to hold your peace, for the energy that you hold and send to others has a huge domino effect on many. If you hold and project anger, you permeate the air with it and touch many, many lives. Consciously watch the ripple effect one day.)

I thoroughly enjoyed the book and I highly recommend it. If you do not have any of his music, may I suggest you splurge a few bucks on your soul and buy the book and the CD of the same name. Check out my review on the CD, too. When I say the music is for your SOUL, I truly mean it. Music is a connection to the divinity of your soul, once you find the right music, the music that resonates with it. (And you know it when you find it.) I am sooooo happy that Frederic's book and music found me. I hope it finds you too.

Namaste'

Excellent Spiritual Reading, August 15, 2009
By Kathy Parsons (TOP 500 REVIEWER on Amazon.com - www.MainlyPiano.com)

"Create A New Life Through The Eyes Of Your Heart" is the very personal and inspiring first book by composer/musician Frederic Delarue. The survivor of three near-death experiences over a period of twenty-eight years, the first of which was when he was in a horrific car wreck at the age of twelve, Delarue has acquired and developed some incredible abilities that include communicating directly with the angels and "beings of light" that are apparently all around us. Frederic and I have been online friends since I reviewed his first solo album in 2001 (he recently released his seventh album, which is a companion album to this book), and I have reviewed and thoroughly enjoyed all of his albums since then. We did an in-depth interview for my website in 2007 ([...]), so I feel that I know Delarue fairly well. We actually met for the first time earlier this year when he performed a concert at a church in Roseburg, Oregon and had dinner afterward. The concert was a profound experience, and having a long chat over Chinese food confirmed my impression that Frederic is completely sincere in everything he does and that his greatest desire is to help all living things lead happy and meaningful lives.

The first half of the book is mainly autobiographical - a fascinating self-portrait that explains the discovery of Delarue's gifts and how resisting them for long periods of time affected him. To realize as a young teenager that he could sense the music of people's souls was more than he could bear - especially when a famous French singer committed suicide shortly after he intuited how troubled she was. A medical error when he was thirty caused Delarue to be temporarily paralyzed, and another car wreck ten years later resulted in a visit from Jesus. This is not your average autobiography! The second half of the book explores Delarue's philosophies of life, religion, and music; the stories behind the making of each of his albums ("downloads from the angels"!); and exercises for achieving more clarity and developing stronger intuition. He also explains the personalized "The Music of Your Soul" recordings he creates spontaneously based on the musical vibrations of a person's full name given at birth. He will also create music based on the vibrations of groups and companies.

I found this book a fascinating and very enjoyable read.
