Publisher Description

This audio edition of the international best seller Way of the Peaceful Warrior is based on the story of Dan Millman, a world-class gymnast who has it all, but is troubled by a vague sense of dissatisfaction with his everyday life. He meets an eccentric old mentor named Socrates, who sets him on a spiritual odyssey that will ultimately deliver or destroy him. Along the way Dan encounters realms of light and darkness, of romance and magic, as he learns what it means to live as a peaceful warrior.

Way of the Peaceful Warrior is a rare story with the power to transform lives. It conveys piercing truths with drama, heart, and humor and speaks directly to the universal quest for fulfillment and happiness, for finding our place in the world. It is a story for all times that can inspire joy, expand perspectives, and remind us of the deeper truth we already know, that real freedom lies within us right now.

"Love love loved this book. Took me less than 24 hours to read. I will read it again before my yoga training in June. It's actually a required reading for the 200-hr yoga training I just signed up for. Trying to get ahead of the game and read all I can to prepare. I've seen the movie many times previously. Both are wonderful."

    " It seems to me that most religions (yes, including the one I follow and the one you follow) are based on 90% bullshit and 10% wisdom. Dan Millman has done a good job of following that formula. Let's hope those who are inspired by him can sort the wisdom from the bullshit. "
