"Warrior's Song: The Journey Home" takes you on an adventure through childhood with a boy, through war in the jungles of Vietnam with a young U.S. Marine, into corporate boardrooms with an Information Technology Executive, and into the heart and soul of a seeker of Truth.
Along the way, Robert Anderson deepens his understanding of the warrior's values he learned in the Marine Corps: Honor, Courage, and Commitment. He meets his spiritual teacher, Gururaj Ananda Yogi, and the author's lifelong inquiry into life's deepest questions gathers greater substance: Who am I? Why am I here? Is there a place within the human heart that can experience true peace?
As one reviewer says, ""Warrior's Song "is not the usual, run-of-the-mill book you read for a pastime It is an intense book about a brave man who describes the gripping journey of a real U.S. Marine written from the depths of his heart. Some books you put down and don't pick up again. Not this one. You will pick it up time and time again." (See this review and more below.)
The author takes you with him on his adventures around the world to diverse cultural settings and shares his fascination with physics, cosmology, music, and a practical philosophy of life. He surprises you with how he learned to apply an intuitive process to problem solving in business.
Anderson has reverence, respect, and understanding for all religious traditions, and declares, "I believe that we are all fellow travelers on the same journey, and ultimately we will all arrive at the same home."
