All rights reserved.| Synopsis The struggle to make sense of the modern world can seem overwhelming without some kind of guidance. In this simple yet deep-reaching book, Don Miguel Ruiz presents a framework through which the reader can create a smoother path through life. Ruiz was raised in Mexico by a shaman grandfather and a curandera (healer) mother, and studied Western medicine before embracing the traditions of his family. He thus brings an understanding of today's challenges to his instruction from the ages-old Toltec wisdom. His teachings in this volume offer the four specific agreements, which can bring honesty and focus to our lives; the explanation of these agreements will place them in a perspective that makes them so natural they're almost intuitive. They will both simplify and enrich the existence of any willing reader with a desire to understand and embrace life's meaningful and important issues.
Publisher's Note Rooted in traditional Toltec wisdom beliefs, four agreements in life are essential steps on the path to personal freedom. As beliefs are transformed through maintaining these agreements, shamanic teacher and healer don Miguel Ruiz asserts lives will "become filled with grace, peace, and unconditional love".

Reviews Review created: 08/03/08 by: This is my fifth purchase of this excellent book! This book has so changed my life that I give it as gifts to people that I love and people I know can absorb this book and better from it. My only regret is that the book is found in the "New Age" section of the booksellers. This is FAR from NEW AGE! See my first sentence below 6000 year old teachings of the Toltec Indians? Are you nuts? Thats what I thought when a PHD'd professor recommended the book to me! Since I have tons of respect for her and she is a tenured professional that I love and adore for her lifelong advice, I set aside my off the cuff opinion [once again, addressed in the book] and devoured this little epistle in one night! The book makes you better understand what is important in life, where you came from [regardless of background, did I mention this is addressed in the book too?] and how to chart you course for the future. I am the CEO that thought he knew EVERYTHING about EVERYTHING! Self help dribble was just that to me, dribble. Now, after reading the "Four Agreements", I crave and am constantly on the lookout for books of this type. My relationships with my family are much better, my staff communications and exchanges are great [from blind feedback of my own employees] and my relationships with my own friends are even better. Cannot recommend this book enough! Worthy of your read! Eric Review ID: 10000000008176429 Was this review helpful?

I can't really comment on this purchase because I never received the book. The Seller said he sent it and even had a confirmation number but I never received it. I bought one (from a different seller) and had it sent to a friend of mind so we could discuss. He has his but I don't have mine! Review ID: 10000000007849489 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 06/22/08 by: The Four Agreements is a definate "must read" for all.It is all about the "truths" of life we should all be practicing. I have bought four copies that I keep circulating around my area. Sharing such incredible insite to the people of this planet is part of my responsibility. I reccommend this to everyone. Read it at least twice!!! It is short and easy to read and hard to put down. Guaranteed you'll love it. Review ID: 10000000007667092 Was this review helpful? Report this review |
