The Mastery of Love

Book Title:
The Mastery of Love: A Practical Guide to the Art of Relationship

Author Last Name:
Miguel Ruiz

Author First Name:
Don

Publisher:
Amber-Allen Publishing

Year Published:
1999

ISBN:
1878424424

Book Review:

In a refreshingly honest investigation of the true nature of love, Don Miguel Ruiz brings to light the commonly held fallacies and misplaced expectations about love that permeate most relationships. In the tradition of Carlos Castaneda, he uses inspirational stories to impart the wisdom of three fundamental Toltec masteries (Awareness, Transformation, and Love). The themes explored include the Toltec wisdom of the heart, the track of love, and the war of control. From the Toltec perspective, everything is made of love. Love is life itself. When we master love, we align with the Spirit of Life passing through us. Then every action we take is an expression of love that can only produce happiness. In this essential handbook on authentic love, Ruiz beautifully distills the core Toltec wisdom on human relationships, as well as simple and powerful techniques for integrating this awareness into daily life.
