I was unfamiliar with the storytelling style of de Mello, yet bought this book about 8 years ago when a friend recommended it. At the time the stories seemed meaningless and bland. They did not live up to the recommendation.
However, two years ago I was introduced to de Mello's video series entitled "A Way to God for Today" which inspired me to give "One Minute Wisdom" another try. To my delight I found the stories filled with humor, surprise, insight, and potency.
These stories are not bound by any one religious tradition. It seems to me that they enter into the cental Reality of all the great religious traditions of the world. The "spiritual masters" mentioned in the book are never named, but could be Catholic priests, Hindu sages, Buddhist monks, Jewish rabbis, or Islamic mystics.
Give yourself a treat and read "One Minute Wisdom." Then, as de Mello himself says in the book, get rid of it. If yo! u keep it (or any book) too long and come to depend on it, it will become a poison! So wake up! Be free!

De Mello provides a treasure map for spriritual seekers. This little book of stories is similar to Noah benShea's Jacob the Baker ... Gentle Wisdom for a Complicated World. Jewels of comfort and direction can be found in the simplicity of the short meditations.

I got this book from a nearby bookstore and was thoroughly impressed. It really made me look within. Some of de Mello's other books seem to be interesting as well. I suggest this book to people of all ages who are seeking to change some tiny flaw of theirs.
