About this listen

Russell Brand takes a deep, earnest, yet witty dive into the meaning of life, death, and the sacred space in between in this compelling Audible Original.

An Aussie woman living alone in a forest, at one with nature and technology. A former addict celebrating an anniversary in recovery with friends - all ex-addicts - at a humble community center in LA. A man, no stranger to personal tragedy, training others to swim in arctic waters. The mortality of a close friend, a beloved pet cat, and - ultimately - ourselves. Russell Brand finds the sacred in all these people, locations, and experiences and advocates for discovering and embracing the sacred that is in all that surrounds us. Not an easy task in a world filled with the distractingly profane and our culture’s high value of emptier qualities, like celebrity and wealth, often at the expense of kindness and connection. Unsparing of himself, and with insights that are sure to resonate with any listener, Revelation sets a context for our need for the sacred - especially now, given current societal fragmentation and the dearth of mitigating social and political ideas. This Audible Original will truly change your perspective and, in the process, your life.

Transformational storytelling... humane, courageous.

I started my audible subscription so that I could listen to this audio book. Russell said it would mean something to him if we were to get hold of it. Back in the days when he was all mouth and haircut I judged Russell terribly. It was painful to watch and listen to him but also it held a fascination, like trying not to look at a car crash or peak through the open doors of an ambulance.

In truth it was my own ego’s diversionary tactics.

Revelation as Russell says himself in the text will not tell you anything you don’t already know, but that’s not the point. In fact he may be wrong about this and I hope this reaches a younger audience. If I came across this in my 20’s it would be truly revelatory.
Coming to it as I do in my 50’s after a period of intense suffering and personal loss, it never the less surprised me to hear that Russell feels worthless sometimes. Hearing that moved me deeply. The way he shares with humour and humility made me feel safer in the world and helped me to intensify my commitment to be here and to contribute as best I can to the alleviation of unnecessary suffering.

It was lovely to lie on the couch and chuckle along as if sharing the afternoon with an old friend, one who knows the ridiculous and the profane and has found the divine in our shared fallibility.

I can see myself listening to this multiple times. It has opened my heart and helped me jettison some of the awkwardness around using the word God.

Russell if you read your reviews - thank you. You will never and can never know how many people you are helping. Keep going. Hopefully one day we will meet and I’ll tell you what your journey means to me. Much love. Mike

Another gem by Russell

Loved it! Another honest reflection on life, death and everything in between. Russell's insight into the human psyche, especially those of us who are either searching for Recovery, or those of us recovering from addiction, is a breath of fresh air.

so insightful

there wasn't one part of this book I didn't like. Russell is so insightful and intelligent but in a way that isn't annoying, he's humble. The way he talks about such a deep and complex topic was great but it only touched the surface. I hope for a part two, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book and hope to visit it again in the future.
