In Wokini, you will find the key to peace of mind and self-understanding.

This is a really beautiful parable about a Native American boy's journey of self discovery to find happiness. It is a light, bright and joyful piece of writing.

The happiness meditation really works and as always with simplity comes illumination. I am amazed at how my happy memories are deepening as a revisit them on a daily basis and how this sense of well being stays with me.

Billy Mills introduce us to an understanding that in nature there are sequences. For example spring always follows winter, a seed flowers after it planted and is watered, and so forth. There is also a sequence for being of happy. Buy the book to find your pathway to happiness.

AND there is so much more in the book. The gems of insight and understanding of the natural order of happiness abound. I commend this book to you.

logical, practical, enjoyable, and readable 22 Nov 1999
By Gordy R. - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
When my grandmother died I had to go through her things, and I found not one but two copies of this book. Out of curiosity I read it, and was very moved and at the same time felt enlightened. I really wish that I could talk to her about this story, and regret that I didn't know her well enough, because anyone who appreciates this story is on the right path as far as I'm concerned. I am a Christian and I am not Native American, but those things really don't matter as the only thing you need to have when reading this is your desire to search, to learn more of yourself and the world. You will get out of this book much more than you spend on it!

Fate Has Led Me to This Story Once Again 30 Sep 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
By chance, I found this book in my local library, read it and had a life change. Today while looking up Nicholas Sparks I find that Wokini is in print once again. Life is good! This book will change your whole attitude and outlook on life. It begins by breaking down the old ideas (lies) about what happiness is and is not. It follows with a day by day path on how to achieve true happiness. A great book to give and to keep!

The most inspiring and enlightening book I could recommend 30 Sep 1999
By lovelyreeta - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Hardcover
I was not prepared for the dramatic change in my outlook and self-awareness after I read Wokini. I couldn't put it down, and I even took notes. Wokini answers the who, what, where, why, when, and how, of happiness. I bought extra copies to give to my family and friends, and I hope they pass thir copies along to their loved ones. Wokini is such an easy book to read. The spiritual journey described in the book carried you from place to place looking for not only answers but questions.
