The Voice of Knowledge

A Practical Guide to Inner Peace

By: Don Miguel Ruiz

Narrated by: Peter Coyote

Length: 2 hrs and 35 mins

Publisher's summary

In The Voice of Knowledge, don Miguel Ruiz reminds us of a profound and simple truth: The only way to end our emotional suffering and restore our joy in living is to stop believing in lies, mainly about ourselves.

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". Once we learn to speak, the people around us hook our attention and program us with knowledge. 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.

Fantastic is all I can say

Absoutely fantastic!A must listen for those on the path to enlightenment and bliss in life!

Insighful

The narrator was very calming to tell such a story about the lives we lead, and how to undo what has been done to become whole again. I could not stop listening to the book, my 30 year old daughter referred to me. This book was one of the most wonderful Gifts of Time, shared by my child.

A Shotgun to that voice in your head. Listen 5x!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Voice of Knowledge?

That you can switch off that voice in your head that keep on analyzing everything.
Had inner peace every since!

What does Peter Coyote bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The voice of Peter Coyote is just amazing for this book. It engages you so well and the book just comes to life. You really feel everything about what the author is communicating.

What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?

That whatever I communicate is just my story.

Any additional comments?

Been very helpful to listen to, before the four agreements book. Although the author does touch upon those agreement in this book.

Awesome book!!!!

This book is def one of my faves! It just really reminds you of all the think we should always remember and live our lives the most genuine and kind way, full of love and gratitude! I am really so thankful for that book, that has changed my life!

good book

very good book, 4 stars because it was too similar to four agreements and felt it repeated a lot from that book which made it feel like a countinueation on the same topic. still.. good read

Great.

Very good book on it's own. Peter Wolf does good job in this audio version. I like his voice anyway. Recognizing this Voice of knowledge has been a great experience for me. My experience also is that it has helped recognize the suggestions of the Flesh that we can chose not to listen too if we want. Time well spent.

Thank You - Knowledge

I absolutely loved it! Thank you Mr. Ruiz for sharing your story of Knowledge. you have helped me in so many ways to better my life.

Life changing, I hope

This book came to my life at the right time. After Four agreements this was a nice expansion of the idea

great book

I'm not sure about some parts but this is a must read. it made me see and look at things different

Insightful

This is a life changing book. As most of Don Miguel’s other books are, I strongly recommend listening to this one, and further embrace what he has to share.
