Wayne Dyer is an internationally known author and speaker in the field of self-development. He is the author of more than 30 books, has created numerous audio programs and videos, and has appeared on thousands of television and radio programs. After writing books on the Prayer of St. Francis and the teachings of Lao Tzu, Dyer shifted gears and knew it was time to move beyond the intellect to give a rounded and inspiring teaching on the Divine spark of "I am that I am" that exists in all of us. When this is cultivated and nourished, it can lead to miracle-making.
The key to tapping into this endless energy source is changing your concept of self. Dyer shares his admiration for his mentor Neville Goddard, a popular speaker on metaphysical themes from the 50s until his death in 1972. Both emphasize the importance of realizing that we come from a Source that is birthless, deathless, and changeless. To bolster that feeling, Dyer suggests repeating the affirmations: "I am all-knowing, I am all-powerful, I am unlimited."
In order to make the most of your higher self, the author discusses what he calls "The Five Wishes Fulfilled Foundation":
1. Using Your Imagination
2. Live from the End
3. Feeling It
4. Your attention please
5. Now I lay me down to sleep
For Dyer, the imagination is a dream-maker and a dream-fulfiller that opens us to all the wild possibilities. He quotes Neville:
"Your imagination is able to do all that you ask in proportion to the degree of your attention."
As evidence of this Divine instrument's transformative powers Dyer shares his experiences with leukemia and an account of his connection with John of God from Brazil, a famous healer. The author concludes with suggestions for tapping into the subconscious mind before falling asleep as another pathway to fulfilling your wishes.
