Dyer turned towards spiritual teaching, he once quoted, "My purpose is to help people look at themselves and begin to shift their concepts. Remember, we are not our country, our race, or religion."
"We are eternal spirits. Seeing ourselves as spiritual beings without label is a way to transform the world and reach a sacred place for all of humanity."
