 SAVE YOUR MONEY!! October 16, 2008

I think this author must have laughed all the way to the bank in amazement that people could actually swallow this story. I definitely found it hard to swallow, however, I persisted and finished it as I had heard it was worth a read. The story is totally unbelievable with little to offer in relation to inspiration. A five year old may find parts of this book interesting! There are plenty of great spiritual books to buy... so don't buy this one.
 This book changed my life October 16, 2008
I read this book while I was on holiday; taking a much needed break from a job that was driving me mad and grinding me down. This book really got me to think about my life and what was important to me so I handed my notice in the day I got back to work. I found a new job surprisingly easily and am now earning more money, for less hours and doing a job that I love. If a book can help me do all that it can't be bad (even if it is a little bit patronising at times). Well worth reading.
 A little gem October 2, 2008
What a great read and a great find! I found this book to be refreashing and practical. Many self help books go on and on about leading a peaceful, simple life etc etc but rarely do they give sound, good practical techniques that you can use daily to change your life! A must read esp for those who feel lost or saddened by their current situations.

This is an interesting story. It is a story of a lawyer who appears to have it all - the corner office, the life style, the cars, women, ... Then he gives it all up and tours the East. While there he comes across this strange monk and monastery. He comes to live life in a much different way. Yet he is challenged by the monk who has trained him to go back home and share the message he has learnt, with the West. Julian, our main character, returns to his old law firm and to his prot?g? John. He tells him a parable; then the rest of the book explains the parable and how it relates to different aspects of our lives. The parable is rather simple and a little strange but as it is explained you will never forget it. Read it to find out how a garden, lighthouse, sumo wrestler, pink wire cable, stopwatch, roses and a winding path of diamonds are symbols of timeless principles and virtues by which to live your life. This book could help raise the quality of your life to a new level.
I Love This Book May 22, 2008
Somebody gave me this book to read and I thought it was an excellent book. I've read it a few times and I even bought my own copy. I find it uplifting with every read.
