The dragon has gone! November 4, 2008 This is an inspirational book which has the ability to change lives. I have used it as a gift for many people. No-one has been disappointed.
great synthesis of new age wisdom August 27, 2008 This guy really has it figured out. For me, this book effectively crystallized all the new age (I wish I could find a better term) teachings that I've gleaned from other sources - it was a great refresher course. He is very readable and presents himself as a fellow spiritual traveller rather than some superior enlighted being (many dislike the superior tone in Eckart Tolle's books). I would give it five stars but for two reasons: I would have liked a little more sharing of his personal stories (they are there, but too few and too brief) and the contradiction in stating that "..if someone really knows the Truth, they are eager to share it" with charging $2000 for his week-long workshop.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!!! June 3, 2008 This is a wonderful, uplifting, inspirational book. Perfect for daily reading because of the way it is written in essay form, you can sit down and read the whole thing or use it for daily inspiration reading one chapter at a time. Love love loved it!!!
Alan Cohen is so down-to-Earth. March 24, 2008 I so like this book. I finished 80+ pages already. I have read a lot of Zen philosophy, have experience with spiritual type books including Eckhar Tolle's books. What I like about Alan Cohen is that he shows how people come from nothing are like nothing and become greatness in a way, and that greatness is not exactly as we think it is.... It comes from our inner world. We don't need to arrive at some time in the future, to have that dream job, dream husband or wife, we are precious already.

The book is easy to read, can be taken in short bites or read in large chunks, but all of the chapters affirm life, love and the beauty of the human experience. I read this book at my father's hospital bedside for ten days, and it made the long days bearable. It's a book I'll keep on my "daily" shelf to read over and over again.
