Article Body:
Fading Toward Enlightenment by Wayn
e Wirs is definitely a well made bo
ok of excellent quality – it will c
ertainly endure multiple readings.
I loved the feel of the pages as I
turned them. I would classify this
book as a useful, inspirational, se
lf-help tool for those searching fo
r inner peace. Wayne shares his per
sonal experiences while he searches
 to come to turns with himself and
life in general through this beauti
ful work of art.

Wayne is truly a seeker of understa
nding. I was reminded occasionally
of Joseph Campbell throughout the b
ook, as the two focus on similar th
emes. Wayne shares his journey towa
rds understanding that takes him th
rough vigorous studies of mystic an
d myths, traveling into himself and
 then out again. He dreams of being
 able to reach beyond the ego.

Attractive, attention-demanding bla
ck and white photographs are enhanc
ed by the deep-thinking quotations
and the author’s excellent discussi
ons. Each stage in his journey is a
ccompanied by the exquisite photos,
 and the photos add depth to the te
xt – feeding each other. I found th
at I would read a sentence and then
 look at the photo; back and forth
- each page a slow and rewarding pr
ocess to savor. Written to inspire
others to delve deep into discoveri
ng who they are, Wayne asks us (as
he asks himself) "Who are you behin
d those busy thoughts?"

The question and answer interview a
t the end of the book was quite hel
pful in finding out more about the
author’s personal side and his part
icular views. He also includes a li
st of resources to aid the reader i
nterested in furthering their journ
ey."
