The Voice of Knowledge CD: A Practical Guide to Inner Peace
Description
Before we learn to speak, our true nature is to love and be happy, to explore and enjoy life. As little children, we are completely authentic. Our actions are guided by instinct and emotions; we listen to the silent voice of our integrity. Yet when we learn a language, our attention becomes focused the collective knowledge passed down from generations and learned from others. We no longer perceive the world through the eyes of love; we only perceive what we have learned to believe. The voice of knowledge comes alive inside our head, and what is that voice telling us? Mostly lies. That voice never stops talking, judging, gossiping, and abusing us. It constantly sabotages our happiness and keeps us from enjoying a reality of truth and love.
Ruiz shows us how to recover the silent voice of our integrity and find inner peace. When the voice of knowledge no longer controls us, our life becomes an expression of our authentic self, just as it was before we learned to speak. Then we return to the truth, we return to love, and we live in happiness again.
Praise for The Voice of Knowledge CD: A Practical Guide to Inner Peace
“This is a profound book. The Four Agreements and The Mastery of Love are powerful. The Voice of Knowledge makes clear the confusion of our time. Our solution is loving kindness.... You will find the spirit of Christ, Buddha, Moses, Allah, the Tao and Krishna in these pages. Liked it, no. I LOVED IT!” — Bill Cumming, Center for Access to the Power Within
April 1, 2004 – “With more than 2.7 million copies of his The Four Agreements sold, Ruiz returns to readers with a new volume that presents his latest thoughts on the ways and means of inner knowledge and healing. Written in the first person with frequent apostrophic addresses (“You need to challenge every belief that you use to judge yourself, to reject yourself, to make yourself little”), the book moves gracefully and anecdotally from “Adam and Eve: The Story from a Different Point of View” to “The Tree of Life: The Story Comes Full Circle,” with 10 chapters in between, including “The Lie of Our Imperfection,” a chapter that covers “emotional pain as a symptom of abuse” and one on “Writing Our Story with Love” with frequent stops for “Points to Ponder.” For Ruiz, life can be a matter of storytelling, to ourselves and to others. His reflections on the process of how people tell these stories, and how they can change their narratives, draw on the lore of his native Mexico and feel both centered and earned.” — Publishers Weekly
