Welcome to The Dreaming Mind a website hosted by Toltec Wisdom Teachers Leo van Warmerdam & Niki Orietas. The Dreaming Mind is for those of you who are interested in further exploring the Toltec Teachings and Toltec Wisdom found in the best selling book the “The Four Agreements” by don Miguel Ruiz.
The Four Agreements are an introduction to living life with awareness and choice to lead a person into happiness and deeper love. It is a practical spiritual road map to undoing the layers of fear, suffering and pain we may be experiencing in our lives so that the natural expression of life happens effortlessly which we then experience as pleasure and love for life.
The Four Agreements:
· Be Impeccable with your word
· Don’t take anything personally
· Don’t make assumptions
· Always do your best
These are simple steps to begin the path to personal freedom and happiness. While the steps are simple, the application of these steps can be challenging to master in our daily life. This is when working with a Teacher can be beneficial to going deeper on your own path of personal growth.
The Toltec path is also called the spiritual warrior's path. A spiritual warrior is someone who has made a decision to challenge and heal the fear and pain in their own mind and begin the journey to living in love and joy. The Toltecs were spiritual warriors who created a roadmap to the process of healing the human mind.
Many of Don Miguel Ruiz’s apprentices are now teaching the Toltec wisdom and practices introduced in The Four Agreements and Don Miguel’s other books. I encourage you to explore this website for more information on the Toltec philosophy and practice. If you have an interest in going further with the principles found in the Four Agreements please go to the Mentoring web page.
You will also find a links page connecting to other Toltec Teachers in our community. I encourage you to visit them as well, as each Teacher offers their own unique way of expressing the wisdom and the message of love.
