Just had to fix the time again on the computer.... seems to be a problem with it.
Don Miguel Ruiz writes:
"To my parents, my children, my siblings, and the rest of my family, with whom I am bonded not only by love, but by our blood and ancestral roots.
To my spiritual family, with whom I am bonded by our decision to create a family based on unconditional love, mutual respect, and the practice of the Mastery of Love.
And to my human family, whose minds are fertile for the seeds of love contained in this book. May these seeds of love florish in your life.

Now a little from the book about The Toltec as cited in the book The Mastery of Love by Don Miguel Ruiz
Thousands of Years ago, the toltec were known throughout southern Mexico as "women and men of Knowledge." Anthropologists have spoken of the Toltec as a nation or a race, but, in fact, the Toltec were scientists and artists who formed a society to explore and conserve the spiritual knowledge and practices of the acient ones. They came together as masters (naguals) and students at Teotihuacan, the ancient city of pyramids outside Mexico City known as the place where "Man Becomes God."
Over the Millennia, the naguals were forced to conceal the ancestral wisdom and maintain its existence in obscurity. European conquest, coupled with rampant misuse of personal power b a few of the apprentices, made it necessary to shield the knowledge from those who were not prepared to use it wisely or who might intentionally misuse it for personal gain.
Fortunately, the esoteric Toltec knowledge was embodied and passed on through generations by different lineages of naguals. Though it remained veiled in secrecy for hundreds of years, ancient prophecies foretold the coming of an age when it would be necessary to return the wisdom to the people. Now, don Miguel Ruiz, a nagual from Eagle Knight lineage, has been guided to share with us the powerful teachings of the Toltec.
Toltec knowledge arises from the same essential unity of truth as all the sacred esoteric traditions found around the world."
Okay... stopping there for now.
Very Cool.... I thought. I like this guy already. I like the way he thinks. Complex but yet simplistic at the same time.
