Don Miguel Ángel Ruiz (born August 27, 1952), better known as Don Miguel Ruiz, is a Mexican author of Toltec spiritualist and neoshamanistic texts.
Your whole life is nothing but a dream. You live in a fantasy where everything you know about yourself is only true for you. Your truth is not the truth for anyone else.
Every human is an artist. And this is the main art that we have: the creation of our story.
The real you is still a little child who never grew up. Sometimes that little child comes out when you are having fun or playing, when you feel happy, when you are painting, or writing poetry, or playing the piano, or expressing yourself in some way. These are the happiest moments of your life - when the real you comes out, when you don't care about the past and you don't worry about the future. You are childlike.
Whenever we hear an opinion and believe it, we make an agreement, and it becomes part of our belief system.
The cells in your body are completely loyal to you; they work for you in harmony. We can even say they pray to you. You are their God. That is absolutely the truth. Now what are you going to do with this knowledge?
Always Do Your Best. Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
Life brings you exactly what you need.
It is always better to ask then to make an assumption.
'Eveything is made of light,' he said, 'and the space between isn't empty. '
Accept your own divinity. Everything is a manifestation of God. When you know that, the power that is LIFE is inside you, you accept your own divinity, and yet you are humble, because you see that see the same divinity in everyone else.
Society teaches us conditional love; i. e. , "I love you if you are the way I want you to be. "
When you learn to love your physical body, every activity can become a ritual of gratitude where you fully express the joy to be alive!
Letting go of the past means that you can enjoy the dream that is happening right now.
Self-rejection is the biggest sin that you can commit.
Whatever happens around you, don't take it personally. . . Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves.
Only the truth can set us free from the fear, the drama and the conflict of our lives.
The dream of life is really an illusion, and everybody lives in the reality he or she creates - a virtual reality that is only true for the one who creates it.
When you are happy, the people around you are happy, too, and it inspires them to change their own world.
Every human is an artist. The dream of your life is to make beautiful art.
We ask everybody to help us to change the world, but we are not talking about our planet Earth; we are talking about the world that each one of us creates within our mind. We are talking about the story that we create.
