Change Your Thoughts - Change Your Life: Living the Wisdom of the Tao
by Wayne Dyer
I bought Change Your Thoughts with the idea of reading through it
like most books in a fairly quick manner. Now almost six months later I
have closed the back cover, but not for long.
This is a book to savor. Not something you would rush through in a few days.
This is Wayne Dyer’s very personal interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, by the sage Lao-tzu.
I quote from Dr. Dyers preface:
“Change Your Thoughts—Change Your Life, is the end
product of my yearlong journey of research, contemplation and
application of the Tao Te Ching ….”
Each of the 81 verses is treated as a separate chapter. First you
read the verse, then you read Wayne Dyer’s thoughts on what the verse
means.
Each chapter includes a feature: Do the Tao Now. These are exercises
that help you practice the Tao. Quite often Mr. Dyer asks “What is
Lao-tzu telling us?” Another question he often asks is: How does it
apply to us today?”
I read one chapter a night, sometimes I spent more than one night on
a single chapter just to make sure I understood what the verse meant,
knowing that this would become a ritual eventually.
Now I have finished the book I am returning to the beginning and
starting again, and there is something very Tao-like in doing that.
Wayne Dyer’s insights into each verse often peppered with quotes from
others slowly bring about a better understanding of The Tao, The Great
Way. You get a glimpse of some of the struggles the author went through
to find a way to explain a particular passage of the Tao. I found
myself trusting him like a guide taking me through difficult territory,
who’s only concern is to bring you to spiritual awakening and a deeper
appreciation for the Tao Te Ching and for the amazing man who wrote it.
If you take your time you will find this a book that opens you up like a flower one petal at a time.
