The Fifth Agreement

A Practical Guide to Self-Mastery

De: don Miguel Ruiz

Narrado por: Peter Coyote

In The Four Agreements, a New York Times best seller for over seven years, don Miguel Ruiz revealed how the process of our education, or “domestication,” can make us forget the wisdom we were born with. Throughout our lives, we make many agreements that go against ourselves and create needless suffering. The Four Agreements help us to break these self-limiting agreements and replace them with agreements that bring us personal freedom, happiness, and love. Now don Miguel Ruiz joins his son don Jose Ruiz to offer a fresh perspective on the Four Agreements, and a powerful new agreement for transforming our lives into our personal heaven: the fifth agreement. The Fifth Agreement takes us to a deeper level of awareness of the power of the Self, and returns us to the authenticity we were born with. In this compelling sequel to the book that has changed the lives of millions of people around the world, we are reminded of the greatest gift we can give ourselves: the freedom to be who we really are.

The Four Didn't Need More

I originally read the Four Agreements years ago and they changed me and the way I lived my life. Agreement number 2 especially (don't take anything personally) made a difference and continues to do that today.
The Fifth Agreement is a good refresher for the original Four and an interesting addition to the agreements. Well worth the read. Not as impactful as the first book but how could it be, it was only 1 agreement against four. Thanks Don Ruiz, again!

worth a listen

Where does The Fifth Agreement rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

on the top shelf with my favorite books. a disconcerting book that asked me to look at a lot of old beliefs that when honestly examined, without rancor toward anyone, question what i choose to accept as reality. refreshing and liberating. i feel the author turned himself inside out to be as authentic a human being as possible, share that valuable experience and knowledge and not to be missed.

What other book might you compare The Fifth Agreement to and why?

the new testament of the bible and autobiography of a yogi because they are simple, unique and respectful of other people's beliefs, cultures and religions. i find these three books helpful in resolving the conflicts that accompany being a human beling and bring about a peace that is a divine right when you're willing to be that brave...i'm still trying!

Have you listened to any of Peter Coyote’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

yes. his narration of the four agreements. i found his performance to be excellent.

What insight do you think you’ll apply from The Fifth Agreement?

i'm not telling...

Any additional comments?

i enjoyed and gained something very valluable from both of these books.

Great Author

I love this author! I have not been disappointed by any written material from the father or the son!

Most Excellent

This book was a fabulous extension of the 4 Agreements. This helped me but those 4 agreements into a practical senerio so I can be truer and real. I appreciate that someone (the author) was able to express into words. Thank you.

It speaks directly to your heart.

It was wonderful to review the 5 agreements after many years. They can make anyone a better person to practice them and so make the world a better place.

Authenticity

Beautiful, simple, captivating and highly motivating. The narrator does an amazing job also. Will definitely listen again.
