Dr. Wayne DyerI saw Dr Wayne Dyer speak in person at least twice that I recall.I liked him because he was wise, down to earth, humble, intelligent, kind and funny. And he adored his kids. He was also one of my co-authors in “The Path to Success”. The last time I saw him speak I was cheeky enough to take a copy of “The Path to Success” with me in the hope of obtaining his autograph. Cheeky because all the speakers at those conferences had their own books on sale, and they allotted book-signing time in which to sign your purchase of their book – not some book you brought from home! In my defense, I did purchase a copy of his “Living the Wisdom of the Tao” but wanted “our” book to bear his holy moniker. I remember the book signing time was cut short because of a late start and he had a plane to catch. Security staff were keeping the crowds at bay with rope barricades but I was close to the front, so hopeful of an interaction with him. While I stood at the barricade, patient but expectant, some pushy female elbowed her way past me and stole my interaction! I was dismayed the security staff didn’t stop her, but I kept my dignity, even when Wayne announced, “I really have to go, sorry, I have a plane to catch and it won’t wait.” The security girl must’ve taken pity on me because she let me through! Encounter“We’re co-authors,” I breathed pathetically as I thrust our book at him.“Oh yes, I remember this one,” he kindly lied as, alchemy completed, he bestowed the treasure back into my mealy paws. I thanked him profusely as he backed away to the safety of his staff, car and airport - off to share more of himself with the world.
As I returned to the barricaded crowd, a generous, beaming lady called, “You are absolutely glowing!” and now that she drew my attention to the fact, I could feel it. I felt so grateful to have experienced that brief contact with him, and so surprised at his kindness in acknowledging our joint authorship (which, in reality he probably had no knowledge of – I’m sure his minions would have organized his contribution). Now that I know him better, I’m aware that I shouldn’t have been surprised at his generosity. Why am I telling you this? Because I want to illustrate that back then, when he was alive and I was one of his audience, I liked him. I wasn’t his biggest fan or even close, but I liked him. When he passed in 2015, I was at a very busy time in my life, so a few moments of sadness were all I was allowed. Fast Forward to 2020Living in Victoria, Australia, I have been in lockdown for most of the lastseven months, during which I may have fallen in love with Dr. Wayne W. Dyer. His has been the voice that has soothed me to sleep after waking in the middle of the night. His have been the words that comfort me when the folly of humanity threatens to ripple my serenity.
I have become well-acquainted with him through his meditations, audiobooks and sundry YouTube recordings; but the most impactful insights I have found have been those of other people – like the guy who was sitting on a plane reading one of Wayne’s books when Wayne introduced himself. What a guy! Most famous people shrink from conversations with strangers. Stories of his kindness and compassion abound – and are why I had no right to be surprised at his kindness on our encounter.
I often wake in the middle of the night and hence my IPad accompanies me to bed – just in cases. But until Lockdown 2020, I don’t think I ever once listened to Dr. Wayne W. Dyer! Even though I’ve always liked him and have a few of his books – he just didn’t spring to mind when I was seeking middle-of-the-night entertainment. Anyway…I have definitely made up for lost time in the last months.
Several times while listening to him, I have remembered my purchase of his book on the Tao Te Ching and thought, “I should find it in my book shelf and read it”. Step 1: Notice What HappensA couple of weeks ago I was looking for something in my bookcase andcame across Wayne's "Living the Wisdom of The Tao"! I extracted it from the shelf to add to my “currently reading” bedside pile and as I flicked through it these were my thoughts: “I think I’ve fallen in love with you Dr. Dyer.” Step 2: Trust Your Intuition“I think you are with me, Wayne."(I inexplicably had a strong feeling he was present, but why would the great Dr. Wayne Dyer be hanging with a daggy old lady in suburban Melbourne when he could have been - anywhere? With anyone?) Step 3: Ask for Help/A Sign/ Whatever“If you are with me, can you please give me sign?”Step 4: Notice Your Thoughts“I wonder what your last book was.”“I should ask Emily for it for Christmas” (My daughter had recently asked me if there was a book I would like for Christmas) Step 5: Act on Your ThoughtsI then googled his last book and a range of search options appeared, oneof which named two of his daughters. This piqued my curiosity because he was always mentioning his kids. I selected the link which took me to this page about his daughters consulting a psychic medium :
Step 6: ReceiveMy heart started to race when I reached last two paragraphs:"One of the most important messages Dyer asked his family and Noe to communicate on his behalf was that he now has the ability to be present for whoever needs him at a moment’s notice. He is only a thought away. “One thing he really wanted us to communicate on his behalf is you just have to have a thought of him and he will be there. And you don’t have to be his child or his wife or a family member to have that,” Serena Dyer shares. “He could be there for anybody now and he wanted that to be known. He brought it up multiple times. He wants people to know he is there for them.”
Step 7: Be GratefulThank you Dr. Dyer! I asked you for a sign if you were with me and within minutes, I had it, and it couldn’t be clearer. I can’t thank you enough and I am humbled to be in your presence.
How Does This Relate to You?Dr. Wayne Dyer was a great man, but he was as human as you and I. Nowthat he is in the spirit world, he is still no different to any other human who has passed over. Your loved ones (and others, obviously!) are there to help you and comfort you. All you need to do is follow the seven steps to magic. It may change your life.
