The Five Levels of Attachment: Toltec Wisdom for the Modern World

Publisher Marketing: Building on the principles found in his father s bestselling book "The Four Agreements," don Miguel Ruiz Jr. invites us to gauge how attached we are to our own point of view. In "The Five Levels of Attachment," he will help you gain awareness of the agreements you have been implicitly making all these years that shape your reality and affect your future and show you how to release the attachments which no longer reflect who you really are. This method is twenty years in the making. When don Miguel Ruiz Jr. began his apprenticeship into his family s Toltec tradition, he was just fourteen years old. His first task was translating his grandmother s talks from Spanish into English. One day, as he struggled to keep up with her, she asked him: Are you using knowledge, or is knowledge using you? Finding the answer to this question would shape the destiny of his life. In this groundbreaking work, Ruiz explains each of the Five Levels of Attachment in detail and shows that as our level of attachment to a belief or idea increases, who we are becomes directly linked to what we know. Our attachment to beliefs our own and the beliefs of others manifests as a mask we don t realize we can take off. But with don Miguel Ruiz s help, and some Toltec wisdom along the way, we can return to our True, Authentic Selves, unhindered by judgment and free to pursue our true life s calling."
