The Toltec Mastery Series - by don Miguel Ruiz Jr.

the mastery of self

The Mastery of Self: A Toltec Guide to Personal Freedom

In The Mastery of Self, bestselling author and teacher don Miguel Ruiz Jr. takes the Toltec philosophy of the Dream of the Planet and offers you a road map to reclaiming your Authentic Self. He reveals how the tools of awareness, understanding, and unconditional love can free you from any inhibiting beliefs, stories, or ideas that are keeping you from living the best life possible.

This book can help you discover who you really are at the deepest level, which often lies just beyond any conditioning or domestication you have acquired throughout your life.

the five levels of attachment

The Five Levels of Attachment: Toltec Wisdom for the Modern World

In this groundbreaking work, don Miguel Ruiz Jr. writes that we have all unwittingly made agreements about how we choose to live our lives and what we believe our personal truths are.

But what we may not realize is that each one of these agreements represents an attachment, a limiting filter on who we think we are, and what the future could hold.

Armed with the awareness of which beliefs and ideas you are most attached to, you can better navigate the recurring situations in your life that cause you suffering and release any unhealthy beliefs that are no longer serving you.

the mastery of life

The Mastery of Life: A Toltec Guide to Personal Freedom

Outside Mexico City lies the ancient pyramid complex of Teotihuacan, which, according to the oral tradition of the Ruiz family, is the spiritual center for the Toltec people. For over twenty years, don Miguel Ruiz Jr. has been traveling to Teotihuacan to teach others about the powerful mysteries found there. In The Mastery of Life, Ruiz explains how the sacred pyramids and plazas of Teotihuacan act as symbolic stops on the transformative path of Toltec Warriors—those who apply the teachings of the Toltecs in their own lives to win the inner war against the forces of domestication, fear, and self-judgment. At the same time, he guides you on your own inner journey, helping you to experience firsthand the transformative power of the Toltec teachings without ever leaving the comfort of your own home. Each chapter contains practical exercises and reflections designed to help you find peace and personal freedom in your own life, right now.

    I love my book. I’ll read a bit then contemplate the wisdom in what I have learned. Then read some more. These teachings resonate with what I’ve learned from years of practicing various modalities but I do like how succinctly the knowledge is given.

    Very interresting and easy to understand. Offers a different view on the concept of negative self talk and difference of perspective. I really liked the part about unconditional love and I think that's why we love our pets so much because they show us that kind of love everyday. I will most likely re-read this book in the future.
