Dan Millman è un ex campione del mondo di atletica, allenatore universitario e professore universitario. Dopo un'intensa ricerca spirituale durata vent'anni, il suo insegnamento ha preso forma come la Via del Guerriero Pacifico, espressa pienamente nei suoi libri e nelle sue conferenze. Il suo lavoro continua ad evolversi nel tempo, adattandosi per soddisfare le esigenze di un mondo che cambia e delle anime in cerca.







Quattro anni dopo aver ricevuto l'addestramento da Socrate, Dan Millman è sulle tracce di una sciamana, nel cuore della foresta pluviale hawaiana. L'incontro con la donna è la risposta alle sue ansie e alle sue speranze; è l'unica persona in grado di prepararlo a ciò che lo aspetta. Tra luci e ombre, Dan affronta prove interiori, sfide mortali, rivelazioni scioccanti e personaggi indimenticabili, mentre percorre il Sentiero del Guerriero verso la pace e la saggezza. Questo è il sacro viaggio che ciascuno di noi condivide, il viaggio verso la luce che splende nel cuore di ogni vita.
"All'inizio del dicembre del 1966, durante il mio primo anno alla University of California di Berkeley, nella mia vita si verificò una straordinaria serie di eventi. Cominciò tutto alle tre e venti di un mattino, quando incontrai per la prima volta Socrate in una stazione di servizio aperta tutta la notte (non mi aveva detto il suo vero nome, ma dopo i momenti passati con lui durante quella prima notte gli diedi d'impulso il nome dell'antico saggio greco; il nome gli piacque, e così rimase). Quell'incontro casuale, e le avventure che seguirono, erano destinati a trasformare la mia vita...". Dan Millman, ex campione mondiale di atletica, allenatore della squadra di ginnastica dell'università di Stanford, docente all'Oberlin College e insegnante di arti marziali, ha ispirato milioni di lettori, coniugando l'approccio del guerriero di pace a un modo di vivere saggio e positivo. I suoi concetti fondamentali, i suoi seminari e i suoi corsi di formazione hanno influenzato positivamente persone di ogni età e professione.
