"Wisdom of the Shamans: What the Ancient Masters Can Teach Us about Love and Life" (Don Miguel Ruiz, don Miguel Ruiz)

Book Beginnings: "The wisdom you seek is inside you."

Friday 56: "In the Toltec tradition, it was the shamans who first realized that humans were dreaming all the time, and it was the shamans who used the power of their awakening to create the dreams that they chose. As dream masters, the shamans taught that two of the most powerful tools in the dream weren't things like physical strength or mental cunning, but rather imagination and creativity. These are the tools of the artist, and consciously using them is the first step in creating the dream that you want."
