"Service to others, there's no higher purpose." I cant get this out of my head... It became my life guide. Im so thankful I was able to watch this movie. After watching the movie, I read the book. And things just got deeper!!
@@DavidLinn I tattooed on my forearm " no ordinary moments" to remind me ALL the time to be present! this is probably one of my favorite movies on the way it impacted my life!
@@GROWLO good for you! it and the book changed my life in HUGE ways! it remained my favorite movie for years. still might be my favorite. the backbone of my life philosophies are from this movie and the book. service to others, everything has a reason and it's up to you to find it, cleaning a windshield, several others. this movie competes tightly for position as my favorite with The Man From Earth. have you read any of dan millmans other books?
@@DavidLinn I am sorry I did not communicated well what I meant ,I am waiting on filming the second book The Sacred Journey of the Peaceful Warrior , do you know if there is any chance for that ?and yes thank you for all the clips.
@@Emptiness512 actually, in the books dan millman writes, he discovers who socrates really is. and it really is explainable and funny and cool. socrates wasn't an angel in human form. would you like to know who he was? major spoiler.
@@Emptiness512 socrates is dans great great grandfather. joy and dan are his grandchildren, but joy and dan are cousins to each other. and joy is dans wife in real life. socrates was born in russia and had a very hard life. he fell in love with a girl from his childhood and they were separated for years. when they reunited they had a kid, but socrates didn't know that. he reunited with her again years later and found out he had a little girl. he took his little girl to america... dan and joy generations later. you can read all about it in the book The Journeys of Socrates written by dan millman. socrates had a journal of his life and dan turned it into that book. fyi: the book the way of the peaceful warrior is a mostly true story. dan says he's added a few things to help the reader learn the lessons socrates has taught him. while it's mostly true, dan unfortunately leaves it to us to decide what happened and what didn't. he thinks we'll learn best that way. the movie is the same thing as the book with a lot of bits left out (as is every movie based on a book). what happened to dan in the movie and book is pretty much entirely true events. so you can be happy that dan and joy really got married and had 3 girls but sad because socrates "trancends" in the book by going into the gas station bathroom and becoming a bright light before disappearing. in the movie he simply ghosts dan. as in he was supposed to come with him but he just disappears without a word. there. i spoiled everything without giving away too many plot points.
There is no higher purpose...service to others! goosebumps every time.

Tell me more.
I read the book back in 1987. It helped a teenager both wake up, and grow up.
Where is the continuation of this amazing work?
do you mean more clips or the movies name?

You, youngster, think you can determine where I should work?
Who was and where did the guy go? Was the old man his conscious?
dan millman later says in interviews that socrates was a real actual old guy he met at the gas station just like the movie shows.
@@DavidLinn a rein carted angel in human body, that is unexplainable...
