MAUI, HAWAII – August 30, 2015 (Gephardt Daily) — USA Today has reported Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, the best-selling self-help guru and author of 30 books, died late Saturday, his family and publisher said. He was 75.

Dr. Dyer’s Facebook page said: “Wayne has left his body, passing away through the night.

He always said he couldn’t wait for this next adventure to begin and had no fear of dying. Our hearts are broken, but we smile to think of how much our scurvy elephant will enjoy the other side.”

The posting was signed by his family and had been shared more than 32,000 times in the first hour it was posted.

According to reports Dyer passed away Saturday night in Maui, Hawaii. The cause of death wasn’t immediately reported, but Dyer had been diagnosed with leukemia several years ago.

In a 2012 interview with KPBS in San Diego, Dyer said he’d begun looking at the illness as “just the body’s way of responding to, perhaps, psychological traumas, you know, from failed relationships in the past, or whatever it is, and that the body just always knows what it’s doing — and the body is perfect.”

On Sunday, Winfrey tweeted: “It was always a pleasure to talk to @DrWayneWDyer about life’s big questions. He always had big answers. RIP Wayne. You brought the Light.”

Deepak Chopra tweeted: “Grieving deeply at sudden passing of my life long friend @DrWayneWDyer. I saw him 2 weeks ago at Chopra Center in good spirits.”

Another self-help guru, Tony Robbins, tweeted late Sunday: “Wayne Dyer has passed away today. 4 those of us who loved him it’s sad, but he knew death was a transition. We send love 4his next adventure.”

  1. I met Wayne Dyer twice in this lifetime. He teased me and laughed hilariously by my response. The second meeting he picked up where he left off. Mr. Dyer was authentic and never esteemed himself better than others but simply loved. He challenged me to never hold anyone above or below myself. Wayne Dyer taught me well. Blessings of peace, support and healing to his family during this transitioning.
