Lessons in Courage: Peruvian Shamanic Wisdom for Everyday Life
Description
Buckminster Fuller reminds us, “You never change things by fighting the
existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the old
model obsolete.” This book provides just that model, as well as concrete
practices for living it. The model is derived from ancient wisdom traditions,
modeled on the pulses, cycles, and seasons of our beloved Earth Mother. It
deeply grounds the reader in a “this world” spirituality that blends
indigenous cosmologies, earth-honoring ritual, and time-tested models for
living with modern sensibilities.The proposed text presents the biography of
an extraordinary man, who has awakened to his own purpose in life as a servant
to conscious evolution for all humanity. His life story, full of adventure,
cosmic “interventions,” and synchronicity is on par with that of the
luminaries documented in these biographies and the time has come for his story
to be told. don Oscar’s story is also the story of each one of us. The only
reason his story has not been told until now is that he was first charged with
creating opportunities for others to awaken to their higher purpose through
his teachings as part of an oral tradition. Now, after completing his
“compacto” (sacred contract) with his Andean teachers and mentors, he has been
released from service to tell his story in writing. And it is an extraordinary
story, dealing with nothing less than individual, spiritual, and planetary
transformation. Read more
