May 09, 2009: This book really did great positve changes in my life. I used to think negative about myself, people, and life itself. Always afraid of doing new things and going forward with my life. This book is like the holy bible, going into great details. I highly recommend this book to anyone who feels depressed, lost, or just sick of living. God blessed Dan Millman, his book saved me from suicide.

Dan Millman's "Way of the Peaceful Warrior" is a wonderful adventure. It's a fun story, as the main character, Dan, meets an enlightened teacher, Socrates, who shares insight on living life with ease, and free from the limiting thoughts of the mind. It's an engaging story line as Dan's world shifts from the ordinary to the extraordinary. I love how Dan Millman has created a novel that teaches with enlightening wisdom.
As Dan Millman's character, Socrates, shares stories and jewels of wisdom that helped Dan find new meaning in his life, I have found that Ariel and Shya Kanes' books have done the same for me. Being Here: Modern Day Tales of Enlightenment, How To Create a Magical Relationship, and Working on Yourself Doesn't Work: A Book About Instantaneous Transformation are three books that teach a practical approach on how to live life in the moment. It is such a revolutionary approach, instantaneous transformation - enlightenment can be experienced by all - EASILY and with consistency.
If you find that you crave and search for well-being as Dan Millman's main character, the Kanes' books hold the keys that end the search.
