A Manual for Life
|
Irrespective of our individual life goals, we all just want to be happy. But how can we get there? Fortunately, life contains inherent intelligence designed to guide us to our very dreams. This intelligence has been expressed by the world's wisdom traditions as a series of truths which David calls "universal life principles." He has assembled what he considers to be the most important life principles—in a series of books called A Manual for Life—which serve as a foundation for the life of greater meaning, joy, and happiness which we all desire and deserve.
Truth can be found anywhere, including Hollywood. What makes some of the films out of Hollywood so magical is that they contain these fundamental life principles. We are basically seeing the truth of ourselves on the big screen being reflected back to us, and then we become inspired—sometimes enough to change our lives for the better.
Drawing on his background in psychology and spirituality, David analyzes some of Hollywood's most beloved and popular films, extracting the wisdom contained within as it applies to these critical life principles, and explaining it all in an easy-to-understand manner. He then gives exercises so that we can internalize these truths, put them into practice, and make real strides in improving our lives.
In this fourth book titled Success through Unity, David explores in depth two unforgettable films, Dances with Wolves (1990) and Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971), to illustrate that true success cannot be experienced without recognizing and living from our inherent unity as well as embracing our Godlike nature. Dances with Wolves is an epic film that David believes is calling us to appreciate our diversity while focusing on the underlying commonalties that unite us. The storyline beautifully shows the ultimate Truth: that we are all one—and that as we live from this Truth, we find the harmony and bliss we all desire deep down.
Willy Wonka is a gem in its own right, having a vital message that is often missed: that we are all Godlike, and that paradise is a place created right here, right now through the highest values and level of consciousness we uphold in our daily lives.
Life is ultimately about learning, growing, and evolving. Why not do it in a fun, entertaining, and inspiring way?
