Over the years since Dan Millman wrote his life-changing first book, Way of the Peaceful Warrior, thousands of readers have asked him to expand upon those original teachings. In response, he wrote Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior to clarify the lessons of the earlier book. Now he has further refined and distilled that wisdom into a beautiful card set that showcases his inspiring reminders for daily life.

The set contains fifty-two full-color cards featuring a quotation on the front and a striking photograph on the reverse. A built-in prop-up frame displays a favorite card or a rotation of cards for ongoing contemplation. Written in Dan’s clear, playful style, the aphorisms embody timeless spiritual wisdom that readers can apply directly to their lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peaceful World of Dan Millman, September 7, 2008
By Deanna Joseph "www.deannasrealm.com" (California) - See all my reviews

I have been a fan of Dan Millman since the mid 1990s when I first read The Way of the Peaceful Warrior. So, when I received these cards I was pretty excited.

This is an absolutely beautiful deck. The 52 cards are divided into 4 groups - and each group has a different picture on the back of the card (all the pictures seem to be taken at some beautiful beach with a rocky coastline) - One is a stack of stones - one is a stone pathway leading out into the water of a quite cove - one is rippled sand in the water at twilight - one is a rocky shore.

And the cards are on a nice thick card stock, but they do smudge very easily (though they seem to wipe clean easily too) - so make sure your hands are completely clean before you use them. They scratch fairly easily too... I accidentally scraped my fingernail across one when pulling it out of the deck.

And the quotes are the very best of the best.

"All our paths lead in a circle returning to the point where we began, but with a difference: we've found wisdom along the way.

"The path of personal evolution isn't showy; there are no glowing signs to identify an evolved being. Awakened people often behave in quiet, ordinary ways."
I love this deck. And though I already own many of these types of decks, Dan Millman's stands out above the rest, with quotes that are original and relevant, and coming from the standpoint of someone who's been there and learned rather than sounding like much of the over-intellectualized spiritual affirmations that are passed around over and over again now-a-days.

I would highly recommend this deck to anyone who follows a spiritual path - whether at the beginning or advanced level. The quotes speak about living our lives in integrity and truth in ways that most any of us could relate to.

Sometimes a kind word, or a gently shared bit of wisdom is all we need to get our day onto the right track. Dan Millman's "Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior" deck does that for me.
