Sacred Journey stands alone, and it can be read independent of Way of the Peaceful Warrior. This period of exile, preparation, and initiation that I am about to relate begins with personal struggles that send me on a quest to reawaken the faith I had found with Socrates, then somehow lost. ¹ Readers of Peaceful Warrior will remember how, after expanding my view of life, he sent me away to assimilate his teachings and prepare myself for a final confrontation described at the end of that book. My first book, Way of the Peaceful Warrior, relates my adventures, training, and tests with an old service-station mechanic whom I named Socrates. What if you slept, and what if in your sleep you dreamed,Īnd what if in your dream you went to heavenĪnd there you plucked a strange and beautiful flower,Īnd what if when you awoke you had the flower in your hand? Life is an adventure, embrace it and learn from it as each step is essentially a learn curve. In esscence this book reminds you of how scared everyday life is, that each day is a journey from which we can learn so much. She is his gateway to all his hopes and fears and the only one who can prepare him for the whatever comes next. He prepares to meet a mysterious woman in Hawaii whom he will meet when the time is right for his to do so. The basic story is that after training with Socrates who is his mentor Millman is sent away to apply what he has learnt. I did feel a bit gutted when i read that as i thought that i had spent time reading the first book to be informed that the second slots in about half away from the first! Anyhow this is a decent book, However i dont think it has left a finger print like the first. Millman states that one should understand that this story takes place, not after but within the peaceful warrior (you could read way of the peaceful warrior to page 184 and then read scared journey in its entirety!). This is a in between book which as Dan Millman suggests would be read half way through the first book.
