Review: This has been an important book for me for over 24 years, most important, today. - I first read this book over 24 years ago. It was my introduction to Anthony De Mello. Finishing it I put it on my top five all time favorite books. It has stayed there. I gave my first hardback copy away. When the pocket edition came out I bought it, I think that copy was given away also. The next copy I bought, I underlined in green as I read. I've kept up with that copy. I haven't read it in full again in some years, but I browse the green occasionally. OK, so what comes to mind today? De Mello understands human behavior, our psychology, our emotions. He uses a short Bible verse for each chapter, and then unfolds the verse and basically uses it as a jumping off place. My copy is around close by, but I can't put my fingers on it right now, but I might edit tomorrow and throw in some favorite quotes. I subsequently read Awareness by De Mello, also most excellent. I have just about all his books, but my third favorite is called Walking On Water. Some years ago I was on retreat in the NC mountains for a week at a couples home, they offered a basement apartment for a very modest price for retreat. In their basement library they had a series of cassette tapes of a retreat that De Mello gave. This is the only retreat he allowed to be recorded. It was several days if not a week. I listened to about 4 tapes, all they had, maybe about a total of 8 hours. Very good. I looked for it later to be able to listen to all the tapes. It is out there but not readily accessible, still have not purchased. ...OK...so why write this review today? I met a very nice lady today, in a Barnes & Noble. She was browsing in ~my~ section. I could share some turnings of the cogwheels in my mind, but I'll pass on that. As she was browsing, I thought of Tony De Mello, and The Way To Love. I looked for it, but they didn't have it, but they had Awareness. So I pulled it off the shelf and went back to ~my section~. ...I showed it to the very nice lady, with a little explanation. We talked briefly. She said she's from Denmark, here visiting her daughter (the USA...NC). I went from feeling most excellent...to sadly exasperated. But we talked a little more, and, I had told her about The Way To Love, but I wrote down the title and De Mello on a piece of a sheet of my pocket journal, and gave to her. We talked a little more...I was trying to figure out the situation, my ~head space~, plus some things she said. I was about to give her my e-mail address, about meaning one second away, and things got sidetracked. She told a friend about the book. She told me I think I will get this. And then it was over and she thanked me, and she shook my hand. ....So this is really all about, maybe she will go to desertcart to check out this book further. ...So I really wish I had given you my e-mail address, I didn't even ask your name. But I write, writing comes easier than speaking. But I actually have an extra copy of The Way To Love. It's still in the desertcart package, unopened. I'm more stardust pilgrim than the name I would have said, if we had exchanged names. So, Denmark, I'm going back to B & N tomorrow, well, today, it's already tomorrow. Wednesday, about 1:00PM...until...as sometimes, what's ~not~ said, is more important than what ~is~ said... But I just missed you, all day, after knowing you only about five minutes...d
Review: Love this little book 👍😊 - This is the best little book "which are actually meditations" it's not a novel. I have read this book-, "The Way To Live", for about 20/21+ years! It is amazing! Takes my breath away, every time. Helped me to understand & comprehend, - certain things in life, in a whole different light. It made me understand LOVE & literally - How to.."actually" Love & The Way of LOVE. IT DEFINITELY HELPS, IF YOU MEDITATE, ALREADY or DO YOGA..or IN A SPIRITUAL PLACE or "want to get & be in a spiritual place" 💯 I CAN'T WAIT TO READ IT AGAIN...❤️ That's a the wonderful thing about Anthony De Mello, & his meditations. You can read them over & over + practice, again & again.💯 Very important, Try to bring your head to your heart & close your eyes & do some controlled breathing❤️ It's very beautiful & enlightening 👍 I'm a huge fan! *Life changing 💯💯 💯❤️👍 *The Mastery of Love, by Don Miguel Ruiz is also an amazing book about Love, + what Love REALLY is & How to (REALLY) & *LITERALLY - LOVE

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Still a bargain, and priceless at any price!
*by B***W on September 1, 2011*

It was inevitable, the publisher has raised the price of this classic work a whole dollar. I just bought a used copy and it was like new. But in effect, this little pearl is priceless. A distillation of wisdom, Anthony de Mello's The Way To Love is a perennial guide to productive meditation. Based upon key scripture passages, "Uncle Tony" breaks open the Word more efficaciously than any collection of prayers, songs or devotional readings ever written. Always new, every time you read any part this wonderful treasure, each page is crammed with keys to open your way into the Kingdom, not eventually, but right in the here and now! I always keep a copy of The Way To Love within easy reach and for almost two decades, it has been my "go to" anchor as I sailed the tumultuous seas of my own spiritual journey. If I had to pick out only one book from my massive accumulation of theological, spiritual, psychological, inspirational and historical texts, and it was to be the only thing I could take with me for the rest of my life, The Way To Love would be my only choice, hands down! For me, Fr. Anthony de Mello dwells personally between every set of covers. I give copies to people who ask me questions I cannot answer, not because the answers are specifically spelled out within the text, but because the book will open and continue to open dialogue between the reader and God. Analogically, the Way To Love is a transcendental transporter that can and will take you into the presence of Jesus, the Christ, but only in proportion to your exercising your freedom to become a student. If you do, your resourceful teacher, friend and companion on these wonderful trips is Anthony de Mello, himself. Timelessly fresh and always exciting, no matter to what page you happen to open, "Uncle Tony" is constantly there, offering you the keys to the Kingdom of God (or Heaven, they both mean the same thing). The neat part is that you can go there as often as you like, for the remainder your life here in time and space. Besides God's joyful gift of endless Self revelation, by continuously visiting with our amazing Creator, you just might get so wrapped up in your Divine relationship that you begin living a Christ like life. If that happens, you also might hardly notice the final transition from this mortal coil into God's "face to face" presence. Its something to think about. Thanks, Tony.
