For generation after generation, Toltec shamans have passed down their wisdom through teaching stories. The purpose of these stories is to implant a seed of knowledge in the mind of the listener, where it can ultimately sprout and blossom into a new and better way of life. In The Wisdom of the Shamans: What the Ancient Masters Can Teach Us About Love and Life , Toltec shaman and master storyteller don Jose Ruiz shares some of the most popular stories from his family's oral tradition and offers corresponding lessons that illustrate the larger ideas within each story. Ruiz begins by explaining that contrary to the stereotypical image of "witch doctor," the ancient shamans were men and women who fulfilled several roles within their communities: philosopher, spiritual guide, medical doctor, psychologist, and friend. According to Ruiz, their teachings are not primitive or reserved for a chosen few initiates but are instead a powerful series of lessons on love and life that are available to us all. To that aim, he has included exercises, meditations, and shamanic rituals to help you experience the personal transformation these stories offer. The shamans taught that the truth you seek is inside of you. Let these stories, lessons, and tools be your guide to finding the innate wisdom that lives within. Review: Practical - Very insightful and clear. The exercises were simple and practical. Every part has a lesson that is useful without the need for prior experience. Review: Wonderful Book - Easy to read, clear concepts, warm feeling from the stories passed down in the authors family. Great book for young teens to read because it gives personal development foundations principles for life. I really enjoyed.

Wise and eye opening . Helpful lessons to find iour self ntrospection as well as our own self power. We are not the "parasite" and do not have to suffer, we can use our our ancestors word and their lessons past present and future generations are one.

Exceptional
All of the books published by the Ruiz family are golden, but this is my favorite. It's such a precious treasure and everything about it makes it so, from the fonts to the paper to the absolute beauty and simplicity of the teachings and how Don Jose chose to present them in his warm, loving, compassionate manner. It is truly a gift to those who are looking for a reduction of suffering in their lives and a growth of joy and happiness. Wisdom that is thousands of years old, yet absolutely spot on today, it evokes deep reflections and ways to grow your happiness.

Right on time
I love to revisit the Toltec wisdom! I've read a couple of them. This book was a great guide to shamanism. I love the mantra of being who you are. So refreshing in a culture that so desperately wants you to be anyone or anything else. Great book. Effortless read. Even on my phone.
