Hello All,

I believe it was on Saturday August 29th that the world renowned self-help spiritual guru "Dr. Wayne Dyer" passed away in his sleep. I first started to follow his work in the late 1980's where I was exposed to his audio's over at "Nightingale Conant Corporation". Listening to him and also the late "Dr. Leo Buscaglia" inspired me a great deal during that time in my life.

As I have written in the past here at "Atrayo's Oracle" a couple Memorials as a tribute to those I have adored for their artistry and in "Dr. Dyers" case his spiritual teachings. "Wayne Dyer", in many ways reminded me of the late "Joseph Campbell" as an educator of global mythology, that peered into the soul of the human condition. And, so it is with a sad heart to see another giant light transcend this world for the next one only a veil away.

In the past I have written memorials for the late "Robin Williams" from just last year and of "Michael Jackson" the King of Pop back in 2013.

May you find it pleasing my memorial for "Dr. Wayne Dyer" below as #2054 in the "Jewels of Truth" series.

============================

Memorial:

2054) Many a beautiful soul is called to serve humanity from deep within the very fiber of one's eternal being. Only the most dedicated follow through on such an internal calling not fully comprehending the good that will be unveiled in a lifetime. Those with the courage and the audacity can truly make a difference in our shared world. "Dr. Wayne W. Dyer", is such a soul having embarked upon a spiritual odyssey without intending to at least initially.

Wayne was orphaned much like his siblings at an young age due to the economic hardships his mother struggled in maintaining a household in Detroit, Michigan. Those early difficult lessons didn't escape the young boy Dyer that keeping a family together was vital. In the decade to follow his mother eventually triumphed and restored her custody with all of her children. Soon to follow was the Great 2nd World War where Wayne served proudly the United States Navy in the pacific rim. After the war it was time for him to find his role in civil society and so with the G.I. Bill he pursued an education in psychology. As a psychologist and the years to follow he married and grew his precious family having 8 children in all. These would become his greatest treasure and most enduring adoration in the world.

Little did he know that Wayne's life was only just beginning through a rebirth of his spirit within. A difficult bout with alcoholism shook this man to his core self. With additional emotional pain of growing up in a fatherless household as a child. As Wayne made amends he began to find a remarkable beauty he may not have expected during common hours awakening deep within him. The divine one God reached into his life by lighting a sacred flame in his heart in the years to follow.

As Wayne made peace with himself and his family origins. His literary voice began to shape the minds of many to follow his writing career in his philosophy of positive thinking. Following his gift he left a professorship with tenure and went cross country promoting the now famous book in 1976 of "Your Erroneous Zones".

Post such a text his writing took on a renewed fervor with the first tinges of spirituality to shine forth. Evolving past the psychological into the personal development side of spirituality. The generations of readers to follow praised his efforts for each of his books and audio's in finding a global audience. As his spiritual understanding increased it gave way eventually into the mystical in the decades to follow. His sublime inner beauty became all that much apparent outside his loving family life.

Our society is indebted to such a holy way shower of how to be divine ourselves in the world. To everyone their own passion in life following the greatest good in how we care for each other and the world at large. Thank you "Dr. Wayne Dyer" for having graced us with the divine truth of the ages. We are collectively grateful to having witnessed your beauty upon the world.
