Principles Of The Peaceful Warrior with Dan Millman

MP3 Download

"All my life," says Dan Millman, "I've searched for principles that seem to have a certain integrity and permanence, that apply in all conditions." Here we are treated to the fruits of this search, as Millman discusses the "Laws of Spirit" that he has discovered, and how we can use them to live the life of the "Peaceful Warrior"--a life of strength, wisdom and balance. He tells how we can choose the circumstances of our lives: "If we don't like the screenplay, we can become a screenwriter and write a new script." But he avoids new-age banalities about creating all aspects of our reality, and offers straightforward, heartfelt observations about living better in any life situation. (hosted by Michael Toms)
