Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Returning to the themes of alchemy and wizardry he introduced in The Return of Merlin (LJ 7/95), perennially popular author Chopra here articulates a 20-step guide for discovering the wizard within and taking control of the spiritual journey of one's life. Beginning with the proclamation that the omniscient wizard is within all of us, Chopra uses a weird and eclectic combination of Zen koan, Jungian analysis, Hindu mythology, and alchemy to lead seekers in the way of the wizard. Chopra's thinking and writing is replete with the fuzzy mysticism and superficial spirituality that characterize his other works. Although Chopra's faithful followers will likely demand copies, the book is not recommended.

From Booklist

Chopra is big. His message about attaining joy and fulfillment by recognizing the mind-body connection has struck a chord that's reverberated beyond New Agers into the general public. Still, he basically has only one message, leaving him no choice but to try to jazz it up with each successive book. Recently, Chopra ventured into the world of fiction with mixed results. This time, he blends a bit of folklore into his "lessons" about 20 principles for reintroducing magic into one's life. Invoking the Camelot legends and using Arthur and Merlin (also the focus of his novel, The Return of Merlin [Je 1 & 15 95]) as metaphors for the eternal seeker and inner wisdom, Chopra gives readers the tools to find the enchantment in their own lives. He did this succinctly and plainly in his recent best-seller, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success (1995); here, unfortunately, the jaunt through Camelot obscures the basic message rather than enhancing it. Nevertheless, Chopra is a brand name by now--demand will be heavy. Ilene Cooper

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun introduction to self reallization
Reviewed in the United States on May 20, 2013

This is one of my all time favourite books. While I am not a big fan of other Deepak Chopra other books I love this one. It is a grate fun and thought provoking way of seeing reality from the perspective of self as if your true self could have a open conversation with you on explaining your true nature in a magical context of King Arthur and Merlin. If I had children which I don't, this would be the book I would read to them at night.
I had been around the spiritual circuit for many years reading all the usual self awareness books sometimes coming across a book written buy a person who in my opinion has obtain spiritual enlightment, true self awareness from St Germain to all the indian guru masters which now a days is all I read. But I still go back to this book and have read it 20 or 30 times for me in the begging it helped me understand how to reconise a true masters voice aswell as understanding that it is obtainable for a every day person.

5.0 out of 5 stars "The wizard is inside you, and he wants only one thing: to be born."
Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2014

Thank you dear Deepak, my spiritual teacher. I cannot thank you enough. I am extremely overwhelmed just from reading the first lesson from the "the way of the wizard". Earlier today, I was desperate, and crying worrying about my future. Nothing seems to work as it should be although I tried everything that I could. Until I herd a voice inside me saying: "check the way of the wizard book", constantly repeating. So, I checked amazon's book and I found it. I browsed it, read the introduction, and it was clearly speaking to me. With no hesitation, I bought the e-book version and started reading it. I am totally speechless. I read the first lesson three times, and each time I read it, I discover and understand a new thing. The wizard inside me that I kept him dormant all these years. The wizard was whispering "find me", but I ignored him instead of uniting with him. I intend to read a lesson every day, I intend to live and apply the lesson in my daily life. Till the wizard and I united as one, although I can feel it already here inside me as oneself. I am really grateful to you dear Deepak for showing me how to find my true self.
"The wizard is inside you, and he wants only one thing: to be born."
Namaste,
Sarah

5.0 out of 5 stars Deepak explains in layman's terms the wisdom of old...
Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2013
Verified Purchase
I have always admired Deepak Chopra, and this book has become one of my favorites. Mixing wisdom from the ancients with daily activities in our current time, this book makes the lessons visible, understandable, and applicable to our lives in the 21st century. It is easy to be distracted from basic truths and soul wisdom in a society that seeks to distract us from our core, but this little book helps to put things in their proper place. I think it's a good read for anyone who likes to look beyond the obvious, and seeks to know on a level that is not tied in to any particular time or place, but is both timeless and boundless.

I like the story line of this book...Merlin telling the stories/lessons makes it entertaining. I'm not sure that it was quite what I expected, but it was good, albeit, a bit more philosophical than I would have liked.

5.0 out of 5 stars Creative Fiction on Wizard Theme
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2020

The Way of the Wizard by Deepak Chopra is a spiritual type of fiction story that utilizes the story archetype characters of Merlin and Arthur. Some of the lessons involving themes related to love, touches upon seeing multiple versions/potentialities of various events, some of the writings within really making a reader ponder the multiple meanings (the essence of the wizard is transformation) and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Always interesting
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 29, 2024
Verified Purchase
I find Deepak Chopra’s books always interesting. They offer me another perspective and I very often find myself exclaiming, “I hadn’t looked at it like that before.” For example, we are not so much physical beings with a spiritual dimension as spiritual beings with a physical body. Simple, but it turns the emphasis around. I wish I could say that I have covered the ground he talks about, experienced the night of the crystal cave out in the open, but I live in hope of this burden being lifted, perhaps because I imagined it all along and it didn’t really exist. Like sailing across clear waters where the rocks are not potential ship-breakers but corals teeming with life, our eyes just hadn’t adjusted.

5.0 out of 5 stars like perhaps Rudolf Steiner
Reviewed in Canada on March 28, 2017

Chopra's analogies are a little goofy but he does get the point across. From what I have seen of him otherwise, conceptually, The Way of The Wizard seems rather beyond his comprehension and as though it has been "borrowed" from someone of greater understanding, like perhaps Rudolf Steiner. A Ghostwriter?
Great message anyway.

I think this is one of the best bokks I've readed from Deepak: in here he explains the basics for a buddhist way to see life and existence.
Very useful for everyone that likes meditation.
