The word Toltec, as you’ve probably learned by now, means artist. The ancient Toltecs were artisans in the practical sense, but the word also had philosophical implications. It still does. A good Toltec strives to be the artist of his own dream and his own destiny. But what actually defines an artist– any kind of artist? Well, here are a few tips: 👁️ An artist has an eye for beauty. 🌻 An artist looks for wonder everywhere– in the physical world and the virtual world. 🦅 An artist has vision– the ability to see what isn’t readily seen by others. 🖋️ An artist is able to express that vision and share it with the rest of humanity. ❤️🔥 An artist is willing to surrender to life’s creative force…to be thoughtless, and in love. ✨✨✨
📸 @iamquads ・・・ One of many things I’ve learned in my journey and in my opinion , the most important agreement 🩵 Grateful for it all!!! 🩵🩵🩵 #takenothing personally #thefouragreements

📸 @letitgo.guru ・・・ When people with a compulsive disorder do whatever it is they are compelled to do, they are not saying they don’t love you—they are saying they don’t love themselves. — Codependent No More, #melodybeattie ~ Moreover, the second agreement in Don Miguel Ruiz’s classic book, The Four Agreements, is “Don’t take anything personally.” From this book we read: Whatever happens around you, don’t take it personally. Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves. All people live in their own dream, in their own mind; they are in a completely different world from the one we live in. When we take something personally, we make the assumption that they know what is in our world, and we try to impose our world on their world. ~ Even when a situation seems so personal, even if others insult you directly, it has nothing to do with you. What they say, what they do, and the opinions they give are according to the agreements they have in their own minds. —The Four Agreements, #donmiguelruiz
Just imagine if you could live in a society where The Four Agreements were a habit for everybody. Imagine living in a society where everybody practiced love until they mastered love. It will happen; it is just a matter of time. There is already a new dream in this world that is ready to be dreamed by humans. ❤️🔥 If you practice The Four Agreements, you will master The Four Agreements. Eventually, these agreements will become a habit after many repetitions, and you will see how your life is transformed. By using The Four Agreements in your own life, you modify your personal dream, and soon your new dream will modify the outside dream. There is no need to actively try to modify the outside dream. This happens naturally as a result of your own transformation. Deciding to focus on your own freedom isn’t selfish; it is the greatest gift you can give to humanity.

Losing a loved one feels like a thousand knives to the heart. And it will continue to feel that way until you make peace with the truth. You are life. Change is the essence of life, of energy and matter. Loss is normal. To grieve is normal. To recover and to celebrate life again is also normal. ✨
Checkout this interview with @donjoseruiz and @argoprep ! We dive into the nature of suffering, the power of words, the importance of self-validation, and the significance of nurturing the younger generation. Don Jose Ruiz shares his wisdom on translating ancient knowledge into modern contexts, the impact of positive and negative energy, and how to live a life of service and inspiration. This episode is a deep dive into understanding and harnessing one’s inner power to create a life of love, respect, and meaningful connections.
This weekend, the Ruiz family hosted our traditional retreat in Teotihuacan, Mexico. It is much more than sharing the teachings that we all love. It is a rare opportunity to see the family show up as who they truly are, to deeply connect with what you’ve been searching for, to meet others on a similar journey, and most importantly, to be inspired to take action and create the most beautiful dream for yourself. Much gratitude to those who joined us, and we can’t wait to see what your masterpiece will look like. All our love, the Ruiz Family. 🧡

📸 @radiancerenewalsanctuary ・・・ The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom book by @donmiguelruiz is a quick read that I recommend. It gives practical ways to live your life without so much internal struggle. Chapter 5. The Fourth Agreement. Always Do Your Best. p.76 “Under any circumstance, always do your best, no more and no less. But keep in mind that your best is never going to be the same from one moment to the next. Everything is alive and changing all the time, so your best will sometimes be high quality, and other times it will not be as good. When you wake up refreshed and energized in the morning, your best will be better than when you are tired at night. Your best will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick, or sober as opposed to drunk. Your best will depend on whether you are feeling wonderful and happy, or upset, angry, or jealous. Just do your best- in any circumstance in your life. It doesn’t matter if you are sick or tired, if you always do your best there is no way you can judge yourself. And if you don’t judge yourself there is no way you are going to suffer guilt, blame, and self-punishment. By always doing your best, you will break a big spell that you have been under.” Radiance Check-In: How do you give yourself grace when you feel that you have not done your best? #TheFourAgreements #DonMiguelRuiz #exploringBuenosAires #Argentina #wanderlust #blessed #travelmoments #blackgirlsexploring #BookHaven #bookworm #RadianceCheckIn #RadianceRenewalSanctuary #Godisgood #prayerispowerful
