Product Information

You live in a dream, some might call it an illusion, but it’s more of a vision you have of yourself. That dream, or whatever name you want to affix to it, is only genuine to you, and only you. I was in doubt whether it's as good as hard copy or not. It was Perfect. And I will go for the rest of Don Miguel Ruiz's books via Kindle. The man was a little disappointed because it was not the Master. He looked at the woman and said, "Please, come into my house." He sat her in the place he had prepared for the Master, and gave her the food he had made for the Master. But he was anxious and could hardly wait for her to finish eating. The old woman was touched by the generosity of this man. She thanked him and left.

The Master replied, "Yes, I am here, but I was here before. I was hungry, and you fulfilled my need for food. I was thirsty, and you gave me the wine. I was cold, and you covered me with clothes. Mastery of Love is one of the most influential books I have ever read. I recommend it to all of my girl friends and I think every guy should read it as well. Ruiz also wrote The Four Agreements...very good read but I liked Mastery of Love more b/c as a girl that has grown up in a (pleasantly) divorced family, I am a skeptic of love and it’s hard for me to open up.You don't need to justify your love, you don't need to explain your love, you just need to practice your love. Practice creates the master.”

A good place to start is to change your belief in the lies you’ve been told to believe. Lies you’ve told yourself to believe. Even lies you were programmed to believe since birth. Perhaps you believe you’re not good, strong, or intelligent enough. Start with those beliefs, with those lies. Perhaps you have set protective boundaries or stubborn self-limitations. If so, remove them. Where and when did you decide you are unworthy of love or joy? Forget that! If you think you’re not a beautiful person, inside and out, let that lie go. Some call it a numbers game; with time, more positive emotions will overpower the fewer negative ones, but it’s not as easy as it appears.Pues yo dudo de todo lo que dice porque sus bases parecen ser empíricas, y no es que quite mérito a la experiencia, pero siento que es simplemente un libro de opinión y motivacional que te lleva a quererte a ti, para luego querer a los demás (mensaje bueno), pero varias analogías me parecieron fuera de lugar, o no aplicables, así como algunos conceptos.

Think of it this way – children get into a quarrel with their friends about something trivial, and they get angry. With time, that child becomes aware that neglecting the problem, or pushing it aside, doesn’t add to the problem-solving, not in the least. When the Master finished speaking, the man walked through the crowd, looked into the eyes of the Master, and told him, "I know you are busy and everyone wants your attention. I know you hardly have time to even listen to my words. But my heart is so open and I feel so much love for you that I have the need to invite you to my home. I want to prepare the best meal for you. I don't expect you will accept, but I just had to let you know." The man woke up, and his heart was filled with happiness, because he understood what the Master had taught him. The Master loved him so much that he had sent three people to give him the greatest lesson: The Master lives within everyone. When you give food to the one who is starving, when you give water to the one who is thirsty, when you cover the one who is cold, you give your love to the Master. Table of Contents: Humans hunt for love. We feel that we need that love because we believe we don’t have love, because we don’t love ourselves. We hunt for love in other humans just like us, expecting to get love from them when these humans are in the same condition as we are. They don’t love themselves either, so how much love can we get from them? We merely create a bigger need that isn’t real; we keep hunting and hunting, but in the wrong place, because other humans don’t have the love we need.” If you take your happiness and put it in someone's hands, sooner or later,s he is giong to break it. If you give your happiness to someone else, she can always take it away. Then if happiness can only come from inside of you and is the result of your love, you are responsible for your happiness. We can never make anyone responsible for our own happiness, [...] p53He kind of summed up his book right there. It’s not about knowledge, it’s about action. So stop reading this book and get moving…but of course he wants us to actually keep reading and to buy his book or he wouldn’t make any money or convince anyone to come to his seminars, courses, etc…In cases you hadn’t guessed, at this point I was becoming quite the cynic. It takes years for a person to reach a certain level of mastery. Also, this is in direct relation with the idea you have of yourself, so striving to form your own set of beliefs is at the core of the Toltec wisdom. When a human is born, his or her existence is intact and clear of emotional baggage. In other words, the human is healthy pretty much until it hits the age of four. Then, the first wounds begin to crop up, and as time goes by, the emotional wounds only become more painful and poisonous.
