The Four Agreements (Wisdom Book)

by Don Miguel Ruiz


This book is based on the ancient Toltec teachings of southern Mexico. Its along the same lines as the Carlos Castaneda books but less magical and more strait forward. The author, Don Miguel Ruiz shares with the reader Toltec wisdom that can lead to a more fulfilling life. The book discusses how our own self-limiting beliefs can stop happiness and freedom and how a change of attitude can help fix the problem. I really liked the book due to it being filled with some good positive ideas as opposed to dogmatic drivel. If you like Castaneda, Native American philosophy, Buddhism, or other things of this nature, I recommend this book. Also if you feel negative, hate life, or constantly blame others for your unhappiness, you may want to take a look at it too.
