When a loving couple unite, they experience the balance of the Tao. The balancing of man and woman is not just their coming together, but their ability to stay separate. Love, like the Tao, cannot be limited by time or words, It moves from the yin and yang of male/female to the mystical wholeness of the Tao.
Based on Taoist philosophy, this refreshing alternative to the ``men who hate women/women who hate men'' genre removes love from the psychological to the spiritual realm. In a work reminiscent ofbut less accomplished thanKahlil Gibran's The Prophet, Grigg encourages readers to set aside preoccupations with sexual etiquette and compatible goals to concentrate on achieving the harmonious, dynamic balance of yin and yang (``Possess and there will be loss. Try and there will be failure. Struggle and there will be defeat. To arrive, unloose. To discover, yield. To trust, empty. To receive, honour''). The book comprises a series of short, poetic meditations on themes like separateness/togetherness, hardness/softness and finding/losing. Romantics may learn how to place the ups and downs of their relationships into perspective and recognize that ``the place that houses a man and woman's togetherness must define but not constrict.'' Reproductions of beautiful 17th century Chinese wood-block prints illustrate the text. Grigg is a former high-school instructor in British Columbia. (March)

reviewed The Tao of Relationships: Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching Adapted for a New Age on October 19, 2007 The Tao of Relationships: Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching Adapted for a New Age
"I have the divine ability to manifest and attract what i need or desire"...this sentence from the book basically sums up the message from Dr Dyer. The central theme of this book is that we have the power within ourselves to attract to us everything that we want. He lays this out in nine principles :
1) Becoming aware of your highest self
2) Trusting yourself is trusting the wisdom that created you
3) You are not an organism in an environment: you are an environorganism
4) You can attract to yourself what your desire
5) Honoring your worthiness to receive
6) Connecting to the divine source with unconditional love
7) Meditating to the sound of creation
8) Patiently detach from the outcome
9) Reacting to your manifestations with gratitude and generosity
Overall definitely a should-read. The reason for my 3-star rating is only because some of the principles are not entirely new. The topic of Laws of Attraction has been covered before by Rhonda Bryne in her book, The Secret.
