The Tao of Wow The student of Wow must choose to believe that the course of any event can be altered by thought alone. No Wow can occur without the belief that the seemingly unchangeable laws of reality are subject to change at any moment. The Wow Master knows that things unseen are behind all things that are seen, and that thought is the first cause of circumstance.

What's in a Name? |
The Tao of Wow has existed in a cloak of secrecy since its first documented appearance in 500 AD. Subsequent research, however, has determined that the core tenets contained within the Tao of Wow may predate the earliest known human writing (3300 B.C.) found in southern Egypt. Other research has found it alive in ancient African civilization at the time of the building of the pyramids. It has been reported that variations of the Tao of Wow's teaching survived the African slave trade and traversed the oceans on its way to new lands in the minds and hearts of captive slaves. It travelled from Africa to the Caribbean, and then ultimately to the United States. Eastern scholars have traced its spread in Asia, which is known to have had paper and printing from as far back as the 2nd Century, A.D. It is this unique tributary effect which explains the Tao of Wow's appearance across many socioeconomic and geographic boundaries.
It was relatively unknown in Europe for several hundred years, but surfaced mysteriously just prior to the Second World War. In fact, several scholars speculate that it played a role both in Hitler's rise to power (an evil use of the Tao of Wow), and then ultimately in the allied forces' victory over the Nazi regime. In America, other editions began to circulate shortly before the Industrial Revolution and prior to the explosion of radio, television, and the golden age of Hollywood.
The last time the Tao of Wow surfaced, it was in prewar Germany. During Hitler's clamp down on free speech, it is believed that the last surviving European text, which had been smuggled out of Eastern Europe, was destroyed in the Nazis' great book-burning fires. A single copy survived in the possession of a concentration camp escapee who would later become head of a major Hollywood film studio. It was this occurrence that led the Tao of Wow to be associated with commercial endeavors. It survived, oddly enough, in the form of acting & charm school lessons, principles of marketing, selling techniques, and guided the careers and fortunes of some of Hollywood's most successful stars. As a result, you can hear elements of the Tao of Wow in songs, commercials, movies and television programs. The ancient knowledge which once helped great leaders conquer their enemies and win the loyal support of the conquered, had entered the domain of entertainers and entrepreneurs.
The historical and contemporary figures, who through exhaustive research, are believed to be in possession of the knowledge, if not actual texts of the Tao of Wow reads like a veritable who's who of influence and genius. They include Tutankhamun, Jesus, Genghis Khan, Buddha, Ghandi, Martin Luther King, Jr., Thomas Edison, Marie Curie, Charlie Chaplin, Andrew Carnegie, Winston Churchill, Abbott & Costello, Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Muhamad Ali, Bill Gates, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley, Johnnie Cochran, Oprah Winfrey, Michael Jordan, Russell Simmons, Tiger Woods, Venus and Serena Williams, Master P, and countless other personalities in entertainment, politics, sports and the arts. In studying the lives of these individuals it is known that they have, knowingly or not, used elements of the Tao of Wow in building their personal as well as professional trademarks and fortunes.

Reconstructing the Tao of Wow (Coming Together) |
Despite its numerous incarnations across continents, the complete Tao of Wow has never existed in one place as a single text. After evidence of its existence was discovered among some dust-covered texts in a subchamber of the Cairo Museum, scholars were led to locating and compiling the disparate elements of a text which had been "hidden" in numerous publications throughout antiquity. Thus began the arduous task of piecing together this unique work. It was often likened to constructing a massive jigsaw puzzle the pieces of which had been scattered in a million places in a corn field.
Over the course of several years, we were repeatedly blessed with information, leads and actual pieces of the Tao of Wow from all over the world.

Tao Raises More Questions |
Answering these questions and putting the Tao of Wow in historical context in relation to other great works across several continents, beliefs, languages and cultures, and human understanding, awareness and consciousness is an extremely difficult, if not impossible task. At this stage, it may never be known how and where the text originated. But, it is our belief that what is of greater importance is the effectiveness of the knowledge contained therein.

Conclusion |
The Tao of Wow is a compendium of truths which, applied appropriately, is believed to create extraordinary success in any endeavor. Its origins coincide with the earliest known human writing in 3300 BC. It has experienced resurgences and rebirths, in various forms and identities, just prior to every major cultural, economic and industrial revolution in Africa, Asia, Europe and America. Despite major advancements in communication (ie. paper, the printing press, etc.) it has existed under the cloak of secrecy, and has defied attempts to maintain it in written form for the masses.... until now. Thanks to the Internet, this volume marks the first-ever, worldwide publication of the complete body of works which will forever be known as The Tao of Wow.
I encourage you to make the Tao of Wow part of the life and lessons for young and old, parent, teacher, counselor, mentor, coach, business associate, friend and lover alike.

EPILOGUE
Here are a few examples of how the verses throughout
the Tao of Wow, Art of Wow, as well as the information
within the Wow Factor essay can help you to understand, resolve,
triumph, and overcome any situation.
Mastering The Minds of Men
STUDENT: _Master, how can I know what men will do?_
WOW MASTER:
COMMENTARY: The Wow Master knows that people often act in ways that appear contrary to their spoken desires, and will display many of the 6 non-actions in their journeys through life. The Wow Master also knows, however, that at the basis of it all are questions and doubts for which they seek answers and assurances.
Those questions and doubts, along with the answers and assurances are contained in the 24 Questions of the Average of Men. These questions are seen as the basis of all worldly Wow. All business success, for example, is based on the response to one or more of these questions.
Such knowledge is valuable in team-building, running a corporation, and even
in dealing with a spouse who may not be as spiritually advanced. In
understanding the basic insecurities which the majority of people experience,
the Wow Master can be more understanding and thus more effective in leading
others.

deepening meaning behind the Wow Master's poetic responses.
In these 3 stanzas (of 8) plus commentary from "Mastering The Minds of Men" (page 75)
The average of men seek a master
to be told when, and what they should do
And lo if you master the ways of all men
their very rights they will surely hand you
The average of men will say freedom
is the thing that they most wish to gain
But the average of men will decisions avoid
so as slaves they will always remain
The average of men seek direction
for they know not the path they should take
Then the average of men will blame others when lost
and look not to the choices they make

A Seeker
Scientists tell us that the human body is genetically coded for perfect health, youthfulness and immortality.
In other words, since the body's 7 trillion cells renew themselves every seven years, there's
actually no reason for us to age, get sick or even die.
If that's true, then what are we doing wrong?
Why are people getting sick younger and aging faster? How did we lose our connection to immortality? And how do we get it back?
What if you could activate your body's dormant code and stay young forever?
Imagine living in perfect health for all your life and never getting sick. Imagine if you never caught a cold, didn't get cavities,
and kept your skin smooth, your mind sharp, and your body vital and energetic for as long as you chose to live--without pills and drugs!
One man's quest leads him to a modern-day mystic...perhaps the only person alive with secrets from man's forgotten past, and the path to perfect health,
long life and the fountain of youth! VISIT THE AGELESS ADEPT WEBSITE
