1940-2015
We are saddened at the news that Dr. Wayne Dyer passed at the age of 75. The world has lost a beautiful soul but heaven has gained one. Although it is hard, we should celebrate his life and not mourn his passing. Wayne seemed to know it was his time. He always said he couldn't wait for his next adventure. A post he wrote only days before was particularly telling: “I have a suit in my closet with the pockets cut out. It is a reminder that I won’t be taking anything with me.”
Dr. Wayne Dyer had appeared on Oprah saying that he was healed from leukemia by a distance healing from John of God. When some heard the news of Dr. Dyers passing they immediately felt that it was the Leukemia and that all the time that Dr. Dyer praised John of God for healing him, had been in vain. Some people who heard about Dr. Dyers death lost faith in the healing of John of God. Still Wayne believed that John of God gave him tremendous healing.
Dr. Wayne Dyer's family later came out with a message they wanted to share: that his passing last weekend was confirmed to be due to a heart attack and not Leukemia. His daughter and family have confirmed a heart attack was the cause of death and all leukemia results came back clear.
Dr. Wayne helped millions of people through his books, tapes and seminars. A beautiful life with a great purpose that touched the hearts of many.
Wayne W. Dyer, Ph.D., was an internationally renowned author and speaker in the field of self-development and spiritual growth. Over the span of his four-decade career, he wrote 42 books, 21 of which became New York Times bestsellers, and this wide readership earned him the affectionate nickname of “the father of motivation” among his fans.
His books include; Manifest Your Destiny, Wisdom of the Ages, There’s a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem, and the New York Times bestsellers 10 Secrets for Success and Inner Peace, The Power of Intention, Inspiration, Change Your Thoughts—Change Your Life, Excuses Begone!, Wishes Fulfilled, and I Can See Clearly Now
Dr. Dyer had a special connection to St. Francis of Assisi, who he considered a teacher in spirit and Dr. Dyer talks about how during his presentation at St. Francis he was overcome with emotion as he felt the spirit of St. Francis pass through him.
