Book Description
"Every human being is by right a warrior who has achieved his place in the world in a battle of life and death. Look at it this way, at least once, as sperm, we all fight the bullfight for life - a unique contest against millions of other competitors - and we win! Now the battle continues... "A warrior knows that there is no guarantee of triumph over death. Even so, he fights his battle, not because he believes he will win, but because of the emotion of the war itself. For him, to give his war is already a victory. And while he fights he rejoices, because, for those who have already died, every second of life is a gift." "I love my children because they are deposits of my energy, my wife because she washes my clothes, she cooks and I catch her, my dog because he takes care of the house, my country because I was born here, my god because he's going to save me...". "The sorcerers have discovered the most refined form of love, because they love themselves. They have put the power of passion at the service of being, and it gives them the impetus to undertake the only quest that counts: that of oneself.

Pages : 411
Book Description
I have come to understand that it matters little what is kept or revealed because if the one who receives the information does not have enough energy, the revealed knowledge means nothing. So that the secrets end up being just another expression of personal importance and they come out superfluous."The warrior begins with a myth, something comes that words, then reach a supreme level of understanding that some would qualify as faith, but in reality it is much more than that, it is a mental state in which the inflexible intent is possessed of him, from there he gets such a state of realization that he literally walks on a metaphorical bridge of his own creation, as long as his personal power lasts, he will be able to continue walking perhaps forever"."The attempt is the force of alignment that is behind everything that exists when we make a decision, or in some way compromise our will, we can say that we are exercising the attempt because each action affects the infinite."Usually these signs are indications of how to proceed, or in which direction to go. So that once the warrior surrenders entirely to power, it will guide him through unthinkable adventures, where the being is transformed into a tool of intent, and thus reaches its fullness."Behind the noise of the world, and even behind the noise of our own mind, there is a corner of peace, it is like the eye of a hurricane where everything is calm even when there is a storm around. In that corner of silence, it is possible to hear the whispers of the spirit, telling us what it is, and which way to go. The task of searching for that special place within oneself can cost a great effort, but once you get to that corner of silence, it doesn't matter how much noise or movement there is outside, because then you have found your center and nothing can move you from there"."With every decision, one plays life, or no one knows behind what door death is waiting for us."

The Sorcerer's Crossing
Author: Taisha Abelar
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0140193669
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
Some twenty years ago, anthropologist Carlos Castaneda electrified millions of readers by describing his initiation--under the Yaqui Indian brujo Don Juan--into an alternate reality. Now Taisha Abelar, who was taught by the female members of Don Juan's group, recounts her own "crossing" in this arresting book. While traveling in Mexico, Abelar became involved with a group of sorcerers and began a rigorous physical and mental training process designed to enable her to breach the limits of ordinary perception. The Sorcerers Crossing details that process, giving us a highly practical sense of the responsibilities and perils that face a woman sorcerer. Abelar's enthralling story is invaluable as a virtual "sorcerers manual", as anthropology, and as a provocative work of women's spirituality.

The Toltec Secret
Author: Sergio Magana
Publisher: Hay House, Inc
ISBN: 1781804397
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 182
Book Description
Discover the powerful dreaming techniques of the ancient Toltecs in this eye-opening read from a renowned Mexican healer In this remarkable book, Sergio Magaña explores the history and wisdom of the ancient Toltec tradition. Closed to outsiders until now, this rich spiritual tradition is over 5,000 years old and was a touchstone for the Aztecs. The original holders of this secret knowledge, the Chichimeca, were considered to be masters who had a deep understanding of the dream state. They had a working knowledge of the power of our perceptions—how they can form our reality and even influence matter itself. The Toltec Secret guides you, step-by-step, through the Toltec rituals and symbols that will enable you to: · Become lucid in your dreams · Create your life through your dreams · Send healing to others while in the dreaming state · Communicate with your ancestors · Develop your intuition and use Toltec techniques to see the aura · Heal and rejuvenate your body by connecting with the energy of the sun · Use the mysterious obsidian mirror for healing yourself and others · Practice the powerful dances of the Toltecs and Mexihcas · See your “teyolia,” or path of the soul, to learn who you were in past lives and release parts of yourself that are trapped in old experiences. An in-depth study on the hidden power of dreams and expanded consciousness, this is recommended reading for fans of Don Miguel Ruiz and Carlos Castaneda who want to grow their Toltec library.
