What a privilege.

What a privilege that Theun Mares is now disclosing the Toltec teachings through his series of books. Through his books, Mr. Mares provided me with a set of tools, which through consistent application in my life, are gradually but surely changing my life. Where before I was growing more cold and detached, and wondering if my life would ever have a sense of meaning and purpose, my heart is now opening bit by bit. There are no gimmicks, no quick fixes, just hard work applying simple tools over a lifetime.I was initially drawn to the Toltec teachings through the works of Carlos Castaneda. At that point in my life, I was fascinated by the supernatural and the thought that there were alternate realities that could be experienced. But though the Warrior's Path as presented in those teachings brought many benefits into my life, the sense of fulfillment was never there. Something about all the magical stuff just seemed to still leave me empty inside. Mr. Mares' presentation of the Toltec teachings are grounded in real life, daily life, and I'm learning that that is where the real magic occurs. The magic of changing oneself.

Dare to live!

For many years I was enchanted by the Toltec world through the eyes of Carlos Castaneda. Then I discovered that there were more books on the subject by Ken Eagle Feather, Victor Sanchez and Florinda Donner. Still it wasn't until I discovered the works of Theun Mares that I began the process of feeling this as a Path with Heart and not as a romantic notion. This book changed my life and put everything Don Juan was trying to tell Castaneda into it's proper perspective. In my opinion this book is better than all of Castaneda's books combined for anyone who is seriously willing to tread the Warrior's Path. And if you are willing to dare upon this wonderful path of joy and freedom which is also a path of no return, then know that you are not alone, and if you look hard enough, you will find many great friends along this lonely path who share your passion and love for life.Dare to live my friends, Blaise Ryan

An Introduction To The Toltec Teachings

In the fall of 2000 I traveled to upstate New York to attend a retreat sponsored by Theun Mares, a Toltec nagal of the third attention. I did so in large part based on a series of books he had written, the first of which,Return of The Warriors, I had discovered quite accidently while casually browsing in a bookstore. My first reaction upon reaching for the book was one of skepticism. Was this another clever author attempting to jump on the Toltec bandwagon? I read the first few pages fully expecting by built in crap detector to go off, but it did not. Quite to the contrary, I left the store with the book convinced that I had found what I had longed hoped existed: an in depth examination of the the Toltec legacy. Like many of us, I was first introduced to the Toltec teachings through the books of Carlos Castaneda and potential readers of Mr. Mares will ask how his books mesh with the elegant words of Don Juan. They do so impeccably. Furthermore, they are texts, handbooks for the would be apprentice to the warrior's path. This book along with the others in the series, Cry of The Eagle and The Mists Of Dragon Lore, will answer many of the questions left surrounding the Toltec legacy, including its origins in ancient Atlantis. Mr. Mares writes with a clarity and conviction that cannot be denied. There is a ring of truth in these books that is very evocative, like an echo traveling silently through time. I came away convinced that I had been in the presence of one who knows where of he speaks. This does not happen every day. To the many loyal readers of Mr. Castaneda, may I suggest that a ladder has many rungs and that The Return Of The Warriors is another step in the unveiling of the warrior's path. With this in mind, I cannot recommend Theun Mares' books strongly enough. I can say frankly and without undue sentiment that they are gifts in the truest sense of the word.

Serious about Nagulaism?

If you take Nagualism seriously you need to read this book. The work is to the point, clear and well articulated. Unlike many works in similar genres it stands up to critical reading.

Wow! A no nonsense approach to Toltequity.

Great book. It knocked my socks off. I'm not just "window shopping" when it comes to Toltequity either. I'm a practitioner and it still blew me away. A vital book for any being on the warrior's path.
