Wayne Dyer is truly a beautiful human being and all of his books are great. I recommend the audiobooks because of his soothing voice and great sense of humor. If you can get any of his seminars with he and Deepok Chopra him dialoging they are excellent.Japa meditation is great even if you have never meditated before. This is the only meditation I have ever done and it works.

I love Dr. Wayne Dyer's work. He is so helpful and full of insite. I love this meditation book, and have found it very helpful. I love the book and CD combo. My only complaint, and it's not really a complaint, is that, at first, his meditation, was to me, a bit disruptive. When you try to meditate with him, it took me a time or too to get completely comfortable with his voice and allow it to be relaxing to me as well, but it wasn't that big of deal, just different.I almost gave this five stars, and maybe it deserves that instead of the four I attributed to it, because I have found it a very helpful meditation (especially because I've never meditated before - it's great for beginners).

I have been a Dyer fan for years, starting with his first book Your Erroneous Zones. He gets a little out there at times but I've wanted to better understand meditating and never quite got it until this little guide and CD. I finally made progress and its thanks to this and understanding 'the Gap'.

I recieved this book in the mail today. I am pleased with the book and quickly read it. What I am disappointed with is there was not a meditation CD in the book, which is the reason why I purchased the book in the first place. I think the seller should stop advertising the book as being sold with CD if there is no CD. False advertising.

Wayne Dwyer takes an entire book to spell out what could be explained in one or two paragraphs and then reiterates it again twice in the CD for the spiritually very slow. Can be read cover to cover in under 15 minutes. Title is misleading. I felt like I was screwed out of my $17. Would not recommend to anyone.

I looked forward to learning more about Japa meditation as I practice several different types and had heard Dyer mention it in another book. What I wasn't prepared for at all was the heavy God the Father, Christianized focus of the CD. I don't see myself as a child of some male parent in the sky. The word "father" is not one of comfort for me and does not speak of co-creation, it speaks of the dominiation and exclusion I felt in my experiences with Patriarical religion. Dyer would have been better off not giving an omnipotent being a sex or suggesting a traditional "human" role for him.If the focus wasn't bad enough, his reading was just plain boring. I can read the lord's prayer on my own. I have a problem with people who sell CD's created from material which is in the public domain. Why pay for it???
