Editorial Reviews extracted from Amazon.com (Dr Wayne Dyer)

Self-actualization guru Dr Wayne Dyer has a talent for appropriating age-old spiritual concepts and marketing them with buzzwords like “spiritual manifestation.”

Here he outlines nine principles for manifesting spiritual destiny, which appears to be synonymous with getting everything we want.

According to Dyer, if we can just get out of our ego’s reach, the power of the universe would act in us to bring us everything we truly desire.

By putting worthy spiritual ideals to the service of personal power, Dyer subverts the meaning of unconditional love, seeing it as the means to an end rather than a worthy end in itself.
