is this a review wrongly posted on a discussion board?


Is a spiritual journey. People shouldn't be judge so easy is necessary a closer look to understand so. Many times what you do is pretty much related with the circumstance even you are not happy about it and unfortunately people can't see far then what is already obvious. Deep inside, all this can bring sadness but also a self-reflection and a spiritual journey.


even criminal and Prostitutes have some kind of a Spiritual journey and have destiny to fulfilled and that everybody's Concept of pursued Happiness is not the seem


She had something in her childhood that she lost along the way. This 'innocence' is what she was reminded of when she met this man, I think. It was as if she could dream again. I think that's what its about Love and our hopes and dreams.


i have posted a review on my blog.. do check it out



I Have Learnt that no one owns anything,
that everything is an illusion - and that applies to material as well as spiritual things !!


i think i need to reread the book because i am yet to get the bling about the Paulo Coelhoisms about it


For me the long lasting thought from this book was about free choice and how much do we have.


The irony of life is no one wants to experience suffering and pain, yet it is the biggest driver of all our actions and thoughts.

Love,hate,sacrifice are all derivatives of the need to experience and inflict suffering.


To never give up, love is around the corner no matter the past, the present or the future.


I really enyojed reading "Brida", and I learned that everyone un this planet deserve love and to be loved. Coelho really inspire me and give my life new dimension, new beliefs. I'm really greateful to you Coelho :)

1) even great writers can produce trashy books (it it was Coelho it would never have gone to print)
2) middle aged men know nothing about the way young will feel making love, but think they do because women tell them what they want to hear.


DON'T TRUST STRANGERS!!!


One thing for sure
'Life throws you in unexpected zones time and again... And you should live it up positively'


1- Love is not something possessed
2- no one can take away your soul
3- when you have nothing to lose, you dont have any fears hence you are free.
4- loneliness and waiting are two of the most difficult things in life

It is us who chooses the path we want to walk on, the path that teaches us with experiences..some realizes it some leaves them unexplored..however the destiny is already designed.


its all about the pleasure of sex ,,,,and how to be in the pleasure of sex.it tells about the men and women psychi of evolve in sex


A beautiful journey of finding her love..👍


Not to judge people


I think it also teaches us about our own personal boundaries, where our limits go and to learn that maybe some things that we never thought would happen or that we would do can actually happen or we can actually do when it gets the time to.


use your mind plz !!!!


I learned you have to be more informed about other gender to make happy your partner.


Prawdziwa milosc musi pozostac wolna. Niestety musimy ptaszka opuscic zeby nadal byl w stanie spiewac........


que ñ gosto do fim do Coelho, ou da Maria ! :/ eu amei, eu ri, eu fiquei nem que afim, mais no fim, ela fica com o homen... que chato :/


I learned that you have to do everything in the right time before it's too late.


To live your life the way you want and everything else will fall into place. Actions speak much louder than words. If a man loves you, he will find a place in his life for you, no matter what


every line,even every word learn me alot about things, i don't know
with Mariah love is different even the view our lives is different.
it's not just a novel nor words .it's music


I learned about the confusion a prostitute lives in, and how true love helped her reconnect with her own body once again. To me, that is what stuck to my mind after reading it.


don't go far with adventure ..


I learnt that no matter how innocent you might be, the world teaches you everything and with right perception we can comprehend the complexities of life. She matures with time and somehow has a surreal idea of starting a new life with enough money by her side. That depicts the escapist attitude, which at times all of us experience, for all of us have as children aspired for our utopian world to materialize. That still is always in our subconscious and with the slightest setback in our real lives we tend to run into that world.
Though when she meets this man, she realizes how people from different professions and backgrounds can have the same level of enlightenment and bent of mind as theirs. In short, we can learn from the trivial experiences in life, we just need to keep our senses intact and be not oblivious to what knowledge is being thrust along our path.
For the explicit scenes, i'd say everything in the world is about sex, while sex is not about sex, it's about power.


That fulfilment in life ads up to

1. Love
2. Orgasms
3. Money

'Eleven Minutes' revolves around the pleasure and its connection to human mind. The girl has tasted the sex in conventional way and then with unconventional way but where is the pleasure point she is wondering. Her adventure and interpretation somehow brings her to come on the conclusion of the pleasure of eleven minutes. The orgasmic experience gets over in a very few minutes and then we again live in dissatisfaction, and the search of the highest pleasure goes on.
I was wondering why writer has chosen such a kind of material. After reading The Alchemist it was such a very sudden different turn and I was amazed as I completed the book. Author has chosen very positive way of explaining love and its connection with body and psychology.
Whether love can change human psychology or can solve out the problem of sexual dissatisfaction? I'm in the favor of this. We have a meaning of love but when rationalism is there we misunderstand the love. I believe love in a true sense stays very longer even it is not along. And it is more than the sex. Sex is just a part of this beautiful tree.


sex is spiritual rather than a physical satisfaction
