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.

Any additional comments?

I understand why he would want to read his own work, another narrator may have been a better choice.

What did you like best about this story?

After a while, I realised that the entire premise and teachings in this story are pretty strongly Taoist in nature. A little Buddhist too but much more strongly Taoist.

A subtle introduction into Taoist style philosophy interweaved into American life. Very entertaining.

I love the story, how could anyone who know's this story not love this story. I loved the book , I love the movie and now I could say I love the audio version as well.
I have listened to this a couple times already and I can say with certainty that I will listen again , and probably again, because I am thick .

I read this book back in the early 90s when I was in high school. Now, through a variety of spiritual life shifts, it’s message rings more loudly and profoundly than ever. I am grateful for the work as it reveals ways to transition from student to teacher and beyond. Thank you Dan Millman.
