In The Mastery of Love, the concept of dreaming transcends its conventional meaning. This concept underscores the idea that life is akin to a dream, and our perceptions, shaped by the power of love, play a pivotal role in defining our experiences and relationships. Throughout the book, dreaming serves as a fundamental tenet, urging readers to recognize their agency as co-creators in the tapestry of existence. Through intentional love, individuals can wield significant influence over the quality and depth of their interpersonal connections, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.
The Emotional Body is the part of an individual that perceives emotions. In Chapter 2, it’s likened to a radio that can tune into different emotions. The Emotional Body’s condition, whether filled with love or tainted by emotional poison (see below), has great influence on how individuals navigate the complex landscape of life and relationships.
Emotional Poison comprises fear-based emotions like anger, jealousy, and self-rejection that can infiltrate the Emotional Body and lead to dysfunction in relationships. Ruiz emphasizes the need to understand and overcome emotional poison as a precursor to cultivating genuine and transformative love. By highlighting the consequences of succumbing to this negative emotional state, the book provides insights into the barriers hindering authentic connections.
