The
World is as you Dream It by John Perkins
From Booklist
, April 1, 1994
Perkins is an eco-activist who aims to save not only the
rain forest but also the ancient native cultures that make their
homes within it. His book offers a thrilling view of those cultures
as experienced by American travelers, especially Perkins himself.
Inspired by childhood visions, Perkins sought and studied with South
American shamanic teachers who introduced him to their rituals and,
more important, their religious conceptions. He shares their beliefs
about healing and dreaming, about psychotropic drugs and magic.
Vividly written, his effort will surely appeal to those interested
in shamanic traditions. Pat Monaghan Copyright© 1994,

Dance
of the Four Winds : Secrets of the Inca Medicine Wheel by Alberto
Villodo & Erik Jendresen
From
Talking Leaves
Interspersed with direct journal excerpts, the story is told
with a rich mix of narrative, mythic and colloquial images. Given
the transitional nature of Villoldo's experience, his is an excellent
story to serve as an introduction for the uninitiated to the belief
system and cultural traditions of the Quechua masters. |
