I have long been an admirer of Wayne Dyer and enjoyed many of his books but this time he has surpassed himself. Dyer takes each verse of the Tao Te Ching (and of all the translations I've read I must say I like Dyer's the most) and crafts a short essay on its meaning and how it is applicable to our daily lives. Inspiring, enlightening and wholly uplifting, this is a simply beautiful book. I decided to read the book slowly, as it suggests, reading one chapter a day...and I must say I really look forward to my 5-10 minutes of quiet time with this book. It's already changing the way I look at life. At the moment there is a plethora of goal-oriented, law of attraction-type books, where the focus is very much on 'what I can get out of life'. The approach here is much simpler, much gentler, much more zen. Life isn't about doing and getting...it's about being. I love this book so much and would recommend it to anyone. It would make a wonderful Christmas or birthday present! :-)

Making "The Way" More Accessible November 12, 2007

I believe that this book and the book "Understanding: Train of Thought"
are the two most influential books on the market. These books are
designed to be savored one page at a time and they are full of life
lessons, which are done in such a way that will help you create a
more joyous life. I can't recommend these books highly enough.

Really Brilliant, easy to read, short chapters. October 30, 2007

I like Wayne Dyer, he writes some very current books. He is not my favorite author as I sometimes get a bit brain-tied with how he expresses himself. With some thinking though, I've got the message and it's been very useful.

Now this book is lovely. He breaks down the pithy "Tao Te Ching" with 81 little chapters on the wisdom of Lao Tzu. Taoism is based upon the wisdom of Lao Tzu.

What I really like is that the little essays are very digestible and quick to read. One doesn't really feel like racing through the book, which I usually do. Instead I've really enjoyed going over a new verse or two here and there. It's one of those books I feel that one will want to finish, yet is in no hurry to do so. For me a sign of a good book is if it's not picked up in two weeks one still thinks about a quick read of a chapter or two.

Once again I feel Wayne is right on the money with the timing of this book. He's come off the back of the recent, "cosmic law of attraction" and "power of intention" and gone back to an ancient text that is an immortal classic.

The only caveat I will lay down is have a read or listen to Pema Chodron's "good medicine", "meditation", "getting unstuck". One will develop a very quick way to cleanse from self-criticism and enter a purer open mind, embracing all our minds imperfections and realising they are not part of our true being. Then any reference of Wayne's to do this or that will be bypassed and the pure essence of his message will come shining through. Sometimes we all tend to have our filters on, adding little bits of our own beliefs, thereby losing the purity of the cosmic message.

This is an interesting book and it really opened up my eyes to the power of thoughts-If you like this I would also recommend FREE YOUR MIND by Sensei Anthony Stultz-it takes us on a very practical but deeper approach.
