Thank You, Wayne!!!, August 22, 2001
By A Customer
This is a wonderful and wise book, full of love, hope and practical advice. It teaches the importance -- and explains the rewards -- of living a life with a strong spiritual center in a world that is frighteningly materialistic, and does so in a way that is refreshing, uplifting and entertaining.
If you're looking for a lift, read this book right away. It's probably Wayne's best, and, in my book, that's saying a lot!!

A Dyer Masterpiece. Again., November 15, 2001
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.

Dyer's insights will get you thinking, November 4, 2001
I read and loved Wayne Dyer's THERE'S A SPIRITUAL SOLUTION TO
EVERY PROBLEM . . . one of the best books I have read in a long
time! . . . he shows how there's a spiritual force available to help
us, regardless of religion or whatever is bothering us (ill health,
financial difficulties, etc.) . . . I liked the numerous examples,
along with references to the Bible, Koran and many other similar
works . . . in reading this, I felt as if Dyer was talking directly to
me . . . his insights into the human condition will certainly
get you thinking.
There were many memorable passages . . . my problem is choosing just a few to highlight here . . . but try I must, so here goes:
Coming to this awareness of being steadfast in abstaining from harmful thoughts is a potent tool for accessing a spiritual solution to problems involving relationships. When a person is talking to you and you are slipping into the mode of feeling angry about how you are being talked to, you can remind yourself in that instant to abstain from thinking harmful or angry thoughts. I find that it is quite effective to use the following words, first internally, and then I say them out loud. They are, "You're right about that!" Not sarcastically. Without rancor, I simply allow the other person to be right, which is all their ego really wants.
Recently, my brother was telling me about all the people he was meeting who has prostate cancer. "It's like an epidemic," he said. "Three guys down the street, two at work, all in the past week or so." My immediate response to him was, "I will not think thoughts of prostate cancer." When a friend who had recently had a hip replacement due to rheumatoid arthritis told me that with all my running I was a perfect candidate for a hip replacement, my immediate response was, "I will not have a hip replacement. I don't do rheumatoid arthritis."
Over the years I have had the experience on many occasions of people ordering products, sending me a check, and then a week or so later discovering that the person had insufficient funds to cover the costs of the materials I had purchased and mailed. There was a time when I reacted to this experience of being defrauded with complaints about how irresponsible and immoral this was. About five years ago I did an about-face. Every time this happened to me I mailed the person a free gift of an autographed book, and requested payment for the bounced check. The response was amazing. About ninety-eight percent of the people who received a free gift in response to their NSF check, not only returned the money, but took the time to write a lovely letter of apology as well. This was in contrast to the less then forty percent who made good on their bad checks previously. The old saying goes "Kill them with kindness." I prefer "Connect to them with love and generosity," or as Saint Francis would say, "Sow love."
