Dan Millman MLM Books:
Way of the Peaceful Warrior: A Book That Changes Lives
By Dan Millman
Back to Self Help

By A Customer
A semi-docmentary of the life of Dan Millman with his character Dan, a young athlete in college who stumbles across a most curious gas station attendant by the name of Socrates. This book, after reading it changed my life, as well as inspired me to become a Peaceful Warrior myself. That was almost 10 years ago, but I keep coming back to it from time to time reminding myself of some of the simple pleasures in life and to remember to lose myself in the moment. The book unlocked my rigorous thinking to move on and look at things differently and more uniquely. Definately a book that is highly reccomended for anyone, but also for the beginnering philosopher to change their ways of seeng reality and life.

This is one of my all time favorites. It's a super fast read, and it makes the stress in your shoulders 100 pounds lighter. I read this book over and over again in high school (six yrs ago) and it validated the questions I was asking about who I was. (yes, I was, and still am, a flower child born 30 yrs too late).
Dan's mentor Socrates takes an egocentric athlete and changes him into a soul searcher. What he gives to Dan, any reader can get too. This book talks about physical reality. It does not spend lots of time on ideas like reincarnation. ie. you do not have to be a "new ager" to enjoy this. Nor does it advocate drug use like the more classically sixties Casteneda books. Although there are similarities between Don Juan and Socrates.
I have recommended this book to many people and all except one giant sceptic (and future heroine adict) loved it.

I have bought this book some 10 years ago and share it with a lot of people since then. My boyfriend, who is more insterested in martial arts than in spirituality, shared this book in turn with some of his friends from the martial arts (Muay Thai) club, specially those who felt stuck at a crossroads. One of them had a dream to fight in Thailand, but was immediately discouraged by his Thai instructor and told that, as a black man, he would never make it in Thailand. After reading this book, this fighter packed his bags and left for Thailand anyway. Not only did he succeed there, he became a world champion fighter and is still winning fights in Thailand. And then, another one read the book and packed his bags and went on fighting in Thailand for a year.
All that I can say is that the book has helped many people I know, who have read this book, break through limitations and courageously embark to follow their hearts and their dreams.
