Traveling between the Worlds: Conversations with Contemporary Shamans

Description

For anyone who’s ever had the desire to look at the world through the eyes of
our indigenous ancestors, here is a unique opportunity. Traveling between the
Worlds is a treasure trove of insight and exploration into the ancient
spiritual wisdom of such diverse cultures as Ireland, Africa, and the
Americas. The keeper of this wisdom is the shaman–a man or woman who can, at
will, enter into altered states of consciousness in order to acquire
extrasensory knowledge and healing power.In this important book, Hillary S.
Webb invites us to eavesdrop on her conversations with some of today’s most
influential teachers and writers of shamanism. While the conversations cover a
variety of topics pertaining to the shaman’s path and practice, this book
explores how we in the modern world can use these ancient teachings to help
ourselves, each other, and the world around us.Included in this book are
conversations with: Renowned author and environmentalist John Perkins, who
brings corporate executives to the Amazon to teach them the value of merging
business and eco-philosophy.Rabbi Gershon Winkler, who uses the beliefs and
techniques of the Jewish shamanic tradition to bring Israelis and Palestinians
together on common, and more peaceful, ground–their indigenous
roots.”Renegade” shaman Ken Eagle Feather of the Toltec tradition, who
explains how modern technology can help us evolve into the next level of
perception.Peruvian shaman Oscar Miro-Quesada, whose ideas on life and death
may alter your view of reality itself. And that is just the beginning. Read
