Summary: where there is darkness, light!
Review: i've read many "spiritual guidance" books and would rate this among the best. mr dyer takes the elusive primordial traditions that underlie the world's major religious systems and makes those elusive eternal truths relevant and workable for the sincere modern seeker. he does not propose a new religion, he knows we have plenty of those. he proposes instead that you/we have the opportunity right where we happen to be now to know god within our own hearts. many people do battle with life. they are depressed. things don't seem to work out. we become ego-bound and want our own agenda above all else. this ego-bound state is self abuse, self imprisonment, and results in much needless suffering. i found this book very helpful and full of profound yet simple ways to connect ever more surely with the god of my heart. to see and know god within your own heart is the true religion that has no name. if you're looking for yet another ego trip of holiness, you won't like this book. if you're looking for authentic spiritual seeing and knowing within your own experience; you'll love the gifts of the spirit these eternal truths can bring into your everyday life.

Summary: A Dyer Masterpiece. Again.
Review: Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, known my many as the father of motovition has produced countless books, articles, recordings, lectures, and TV and radio appearances since the late '70's that have left his followers amazed with his mastery at articulating what most would think would be very difficult subjects. Dyer's work took a sharp shift a few years ago from psychological self help type work to spirutal and "higher self" guidance. Dyer's most recent work, There's a Spirutal Solution for Every Problem, is absolutely the crown jewel. I was left dumbfounded by his ability to make the reader understand deep philisophical concepts. This book will leave the reader seeing complex, so called "problems" in a whole new way. Dyer walks the reader through a path of seeing and knowing that problems are only illusions created in our minds and that any possible problem that a person can encounter will literally evaporate by following the principles taught in this, and other Wayne Dyer works. There's a Spiritual Solution for Every Problem is a necessity for anyone who believes that they have problems.

Summary: A meaningful journey to peace
Review: After reading Dr. Dyer's book, you can easily see that we really have a great way to deal with life's conflicts...within ourselves. It was like a breath of fresh air and really helped me to understand that changing our perspective about what we think are "problems" in life can easily be resolved by "going within" and seeking the kind of divine spirituality that helps us realize that the same mind that created the problems can solve them too. A must read for anyone who would like to create peace in these stressful times.

Summary: An Appetizer without the Main Course
Review: Wayne Dyer has compiled in this book several concepts which are of immense value to anyone who seeks the confidence, power, and fulfillment that comes with spiritual maturity. Part One of the book contains Dyer's interpretation of other peoples work. I found this valuable because I did not know about these other people.
But I found myself thinking that Dyer had done a mediocre job of interpreting their work. Chapter 6 contains some very useful advice which, once again, draws from a number of other authors. If you read only one chapter in this book, this is the one to read. In Part Two, Dyer attempts to show practical ways to implement the prayer of Saint Francis and provides anecdotal evidence to show that these methods are effective. I found this valuable because it had never occurred to me to put The prayer of St. Francis into practice. It had been a source of inspiration, but I never thought of it as an action plan. Since it so obviously IS an action plan, I'm wondering now how I could have missed that. Although Dyer's efforts to implement the prayer are well worth reading, I suspect that the average person could do much better for himself/herself by contemplating their own plan for implementing the prayer of St. Francis. Throughout the book, I often got the impression that Dyer has only a superficial understanding of some of the concepts he attempts to convey here. And I occasionally found some of his ideas foolish, naïve, and even foolhardy. The incident where he believes he disbursed a kegger party by sending love to the revellers is an example of questionable judgement. Nonetheless, I think just about anybody would benefit from studying this book.

Summary: If You're Having Trouble Coping with September 11th . . .
Review: I've enjoyed Dr. Dyer's work since the 1970s. Every one of his books has come to me at the perfect time, and the same is true here. My copy of There's a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem arrived shortly after September 11, 2001 (I had it on pre-order, and finalized the order on September 10). How I needed this wonderful book. While I've come very far in my spiritual growth, I sometimes need a little outward guidance, too . . . especially when it comes to facing great tragedy, anger, fear, etc. This book helped me do it. Of course, There's a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem isn't only for those perplexed in how to deal with September 11, and the book was written much in advance of it, but I promise you: In the wake of disaster, this book will bring you what you need. You'll find answers, comfort, hope, and peace. The message is something we all need right now. This book speaks to everyone, regardless of religion or religious background, and it doesn't matter if you're new to spiritual guidance or a long-time follower. Please read! Thank you, Dr. Dyer. My family and I send love.

Summary: Premise is Good, But....
Review: I love Wayne Dyer books and have read many of them. But, this book just didn't do it for me. I love the premise of the book where he promotes positive thinking, higher energy levels, and not giving your energy to negative thoughts, since what you give out will come back to you. However, I had difficulty with 3 areas of the book: 1) Evil doesn't exist 2) The fact that Dyer never addresses the concept of free will, and 3) Illness is due to erroneous thinking. First, evil does exist and we see it every day...it's all around us. Denying it's existance is like sticking your head in the sand. Dyer says that evil cannot exist, since God created all things, and God is good, so why would a good God create evil? Well, I think the answer lies in free-will, which brings me to my second point. Although God is good, he also gave us free-will, which means that we are able to choose the path of God (good positive, energy) or something opposite of God, which would be evil. Dyer never addresses free-will in this book even though he continually quotes the bible and other spiritual/religious writings that do in fact address the concept of free-will in depth. How he can quote so many things from these books and yet deny the existance of free-will is beyond me. Finally, Dyer states that illness stems from erroneous thinking. While I do believe that many illness are brought on by negative thinking and stress (I do believe there is a mind/body connection), if you follow Dyer's theory on this than how is it that infants can get ill? Is an infant capable of thinking erroneously when he/she cannot even take care of him/herself? Dyer lightly brushes the surface of the issue regarding children and illnesses, but then totally dismisses the issue and moves on to the next topic without giving us a reason or answer. This proves to me that either Dyer is underminding the intelligence of the reader or doesn't know himself so he dismisses the issue. Finally, I do think that many things bad happen in our lives for a purpose, and that purpose is for our souls to grow and learn. Maybe this is why we get ill and the very reason why we have free-will. I have known a few people who were very positive about a terminal illness...did the whole imagery and positive visualization thing, and yet still passed away from their illness. Were these people just not thinking positively enough?? Instead, I believe their deaths were for a reason. Either for their soul to learn or for the souls of others to learn. Finally, there are many parts of this book that I enjoyed and will put into practice. I do like the whole concept of higher and lower energy frequencies. This concept did rang true with me. And, I do believe that what you give out in this world comes back to you. So, if you give out positive energy and thoughts, positive things will come back to you in some shape or form. In addition, I also do like the way he puts St. Francis's prayer into practice. It's always been one of my favorite prayers and the way that Dyer brings the prayer into real life scenarios is very uplifting. Overall, this book is good, but has a lot of holes in it, which left me with a lot of questions. I will continue to be a fan of Dyer, but I do think that some of his other books are more practical and even more spiritually uplifting.

Summary: Very shallow pop philosophy
Review: I tried very hard to like this book but was quickly turned off by Dr. Dyer's protrayal of "low level" and "high level" frequencies that supposedly mirror different qualitative levels of thought. From these essentially unsupported constructs, he provides advice for living as if the entire structure is an a priori given. The commentary is very shallow bordering upon new age pop psychology. I found very little depth in the first one hundred and twenty pages and finally gave up on the book. If you are interested in something much more substantial and helpful, study more well thought out Zen or Buddhist texts that provide much more substance but do a much better job of conveying the ideas that I believe Dr. Dyer is trying to share.

Summary: We Need More Dr. Dyer!!
Review: Dr. Wayne Dyer writes two kinds of books. The best ones fall into two major quartets: Your Erroneous Zones, Pulling Your Own Strings, The Sky's The Limit and What Do You Really Want For Your Children being the first major quartet and You'll See It When You Believe It, Real Magic, Your Sacred Self and the book under discussion, There's A Spiritual Solution For Every Problem. Dr. Dyer always surprises us, taking us in new directions and illuminating us. I can't wait to see where he will lead us with his next major work.

Review: This is a wonderful book. I particularly love the story of Dr. Dyer carrying the man up the stairs at Assis. He is a very profound spiritual master. I can't wait for his next effort.
