Hi LaF,
I have never read any of Dyer’s books, I guess I always considered him the white Deepak Chopra. Not that there is really anything wrong with Chopra. I just get suspicious of media gurus and their multi-thousand dollar retreats. Perhaps that is the only way to get your message out these days? However, both seem to promote a secular spirituality that respects the world’s wisdom traditions and promotes meditation, I think that is a healthy approach. There are words wisdom threaded through so many sources, it is easy for me to become bewildered and think I have to read it all. Each of the thoughts your LC gave you to reflect upon has a similar statement in a variety of the world’s wisdom traditions. I believe meditation is necessary to give meaning to mere words. Hopefully, your LC has told you to “go and sit” in addition to reading?
