Four years after training with the old warrior he calls Socrates, and in spite of all he has learned, Dan Millman confronts personal failure and growing frustrations. "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.īook Description Paperback. In the meantime, I hope readers enjoy reading of my adventures with the woman I called Mama Chia, a Hawai'ian kahuna, a healer and sage, as I learn some fundamental secrets about who we are and where we're going. I don't necessarily suggest that readers do this, but only want to place this story in its proper time and context.Īs I write this note (in March of 2011), I am preparing to write the third book in the series, that does in fact follow, chronologically, from the end of Sacred Journey. So literally, one can read my first book to about page 184, then read Sacred Journey, and then complete the first book to get a proper sense of chronology. Rather, this story takes place within the time-frame of my first book, Way of the Peaceful Warrior, during a period of travel and exploration after Socrates sent me away to find myself and my place in the world. The odd thing about this story is that it is not a sequel - that is, it doesn't pick up at the end of my first book.
So, what began as a small booklet I was going to call "awakening the three selves" transformed, as if on its own accord, into Sacred Journey of the Peaceful Warrior. Then the influence of a new mentor (I will someday write about, in a forthcoming memoir), I was compelled, provoked, stimulated to share new insights and perspectives with my readers.
After writing my first book, Way of the Peaceful Warrior, ten years passed with no further writing.
