I struggle to understand how some people find profundity in books such as this. I had heard it described as Ruiz’s “masterpiece” in the course of a long form interview. I’m still not sure how I would describe it, but masterpiece is not a term I would use. The most positive comment I can make is that the imagery is creative. The story is a series of dream scenes involving the spirit of the author, his mother, several departed ancestors, and others of his family. An Eve-like character and a departed grandfather guide his mother through the unconnected sequence of realizations that will result in the author returning from his coma back into the physical world. I can value that the author’s actual life experience of returning from a coma gave him further creative impetus; however, this work doesn’t inform any significant philosophy or life lessons. Some of the scenes are colorful, but the writing is simple and there’s no compelling story arc. At 120 pages in, I gave up on this book. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
A HarperElixir Book The beloved teacher of spiritual wisdom and author of the phenomenal New York Times and international bestseller The Four Agreements takes readers on a mystical Toltec-inspired personal journey, introducing us to a deeper level of spiritual teaching and awareness. In 2002, Don Miguel Ruiz suffered a near fatal heart attack that left him in a nine-weeks-long coma. The spiritual journey he undertook while suspended between this world and the next forms the heart of The Toltec Art of Life and Death, a profound and mystical tale of spiritual struggle. As his body lies unconscious, Ruiz's spirit encounters the people, ideas, and events that have shaped him, illuminating the eternal struggle between life-unending energy and truth-and death-matter and subjective knowledge-in which we are all called to engage. Over ten years in the making, The Toltec Art of Life and Death invites readers into the mind of a master of spiritual seeking, offering an unparalleled and intimate glimpse into the development of a soul. In this culmination of a lifetime's learning, Ruiz shares with readers the innermost workings of his singular heart and mind, and summons us to grapple with timeless insights, drawn from ancient Toltec wisdom, that are the essence of transformation.
