Book Synopsis The Shaman’s Mirror by : Hope MacLean
Download or read book The Shaman’s Mirror written by Hope MacLean and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2012-08-24 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Huichol Indian yarn paintings are one of the world's great indigenous arts, sold around the world and advertised as authentic records of dreams and visions of the shamans. Using glowing colored yarns, the Huichol Indians of Mexico paint the mystical symbols of their culture—the hallucinogenic peyote cactus, the blue deer-spirit who appears to the shamans as they croon their songs around the fire in all-night ceremonies deep in the Sierra Madre mountains, and the pilgrimages to sacred sites, high in the central Mexican desert of Wirikuta. Hope MacLean provides the first comprehensive study of Huichol yarn paintings, from their origins as sacred offerings to their transformation into commercial art. Drawing on twenty years of ethnographic fieldwork, she interviews Huichol artists who have innovated important themes and styles. She compares the artists' views with those of art dealers and government officials to show how yarn painters respond to market influences while still keeping their religious beliefs. Most innovative is her exploration of what it means to say a tourist art is based on dreams and visions of the shamans. She explains what visionary experience means in Huichol culture and discusses the influence of the hallucinogenic peyote cactus on the Huichol's remarkable use of color. She uncovers a deep structure of visionary experience, rooted in Huichol concepts of soul-energy, and shows how this remarkable conception may be linked to visionary experiences as described by other Uto-Aztecan and Meso-American cultures.

Book excerpt: Who are the Shapers? What is their will of us? In the First Time, the kingdoms of earth and the realms of light were one. Wise in the ways of the Otherworld, the Na-Akhu-El Sages of the Motherland tended the ongoing creation in the earth: Masters of the Four Forces and the cycles of creation, they shaped the pattern of things to come before they took form, and kept the balance of life in the worlds. But the Kingdom of the Sun fell, and a catastrophic dark age ensued, obscuring the way of the Makers. In the cataclysmic destruction of the world that was, the way of the Otherworld and of the First Time was lost, and Man forgot the realms of light. Nevertheless, veiled by the commonplace, a vestige of the Na-Akhu-El Sages survives, and subtly intervenes at crucial moments to keep the way they have shaped to restore Man to the First Time. In ancient Egypt this remnant is known as the Akhu, the Shining Ones of the First Time, who serve the Lord Osiris. Knowing the secrets of life and death, the making and unmaking of things, and the way of resurrection and ascension into the Otherworld, they are worshiped as deathless gods. In thirteenth century Egypt, the alchemist Flegetanis of Alexandria confronts an ancient adversary, the shaman Morgon Kara, in a dispute over a fallen Templar who has become the key to the survival of the Na-Akhu-El Sages. A contest unfolds in a subtle weave of intrigue and betrayal, in a quest for the meaning of a lost way, and the resurrection of a man whose awakening holds the key to the fate of the world to come.
Book Synopsis Drones, Tones, and Timbres by : Carole Pegg
Download or read book Drones, Tones, and Timbres written by Carole Pegg and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2024-01-09 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An indispensable study of the music of Altai-Sayan peoples Based on more than twenty years of collaborative research, Carole Pegg’s long-awaited participatory ethnography explores how Indigenous nomadic peoples of Russia’s southern Siberian republics (Altai, Khakassia, Tyva) sound multiphonies of place in a post-Soviet global world. Inspired by the mountain-steppe ecology and pathways of nomadism, soundscapes created in performative ritual events cross political and multiple-world boundaries in a shamanic-animist universe, enabling human and spirit actor interactions in a series of sensuous worlds. As with the “throat-singing” for which Indigenous Altai-Sayan peoples are famous, senses of place involve sonic relations, rootedness, movement, and plurality. Pegg echoes their drone-partials musical and ontological models in an innovative theoretical entwinement. Three strands form the book’s multivocal drone, the partials of which sound in each chapter: ontological sonicality and musicality that enables emplacement and movement; the importance of shamanism-animism--at the core of Indigenous spiritual practices--for personhood and community; and the agency of sonic performances. Sounding place, Pegg demonstrates, is essential to the identities, ways of life, and very senses of being of Indigenous Altai-Sayan peoples.

Download or read book Blue Shaman written by Hugh Malafry and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the wake of the cataclysmic loss of the heaven of the First Time, the kingdoms of this world descended into an unrelenting dark age. Driven to return to the paradise that once was, human civilizations rose and fell, their sovereignty always short lived, and forever challenged by conflicting visions of how to restore heaven on earth. In the time of the great transgression, a path for man to return to the way of life was established in the Na Akhu-El sages, the shining ones of the First Time. In these the seed of light of the Golden Age was sown, to teach the way of the Four Forces, of the cycles of creation, and how to harmonize in them. And though the way was offered, and there were those who awakened to divine identity in the new heaven of this world, always the spirits of fear, greed, and shame overwhelmed the revelation, obscured the way, and wrought destruction. At the Great Pyramid, an epiphany in the Kings Chamber compels Hugues Caron to seek out and learn of the Na Akhu-el sages, the way of divine identity and mastery of the lost Hallows. In his quest to understand the mystery of the stone of sovereignty, Caron learns that a third and final opportunity for the spiritual regeneration of the human race, and return to the Golden Age, is in the offing. Again, it is for the Na Akhu-El sages to prepare the way, but even as this millennial old contest comes to climax, subversive forces of another ancient order are at work. Should these prevail an end will be made to the fallen state, not in restoration to a Golden Age, but in the final destruction of the human race.

Download or read book In the Shadow of the Shaman written by and published by Llewellyn Worldwide. This book was released on 1988 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Shadow of the Shaman is about the importance of connection to the deepest power of Nature. It tells you how to use natural objects from the shamanic worlds -- Plant, Mineral, Animal, and Human -- to help make this personal connection with Earth energies. In doing this, you are able to reconnect with the center of your own power. Because the shamanic path is such a personal one, often not able to be shared, this book has been designed so that it has the experiential quality of the shamanic journey traditions. The author is also careful to present the information in a clear, organized manner. In doing so, she blends the deeply personal wisdom of a shamanic path with the shared, community wisdom of a medicine path. This represents an ideal for Aquarian shamanism. But this book is not simply about shamanism -- it shows, through techniques, exercises, meditations, and rituals, how anyone can become a shaman. You will learn how to attune yourself with the shamanic worlds of Nature, and with the Higher Self, for self-healing and self-empowerment. You will learn to develop shamanic balance, to become the living tree, and you will do this by using such tools as stones, crystals, feathers, masks, drums, and incense. Book jacket.
Book Synopsis The Woman in the Shaman's Body by : Barbara Tedlock, Ph.D.
Download or read book The Woman in the Shaman's Body written by Barbara Tedlock, Ph.D. and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2009-09-02 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A distinguished anthropologist–who is also an initiated shaman–reveals the long-hidden female roots of the world’s oldest form of religion and medicine. Here is a fascinating expedition into this ancient tradition, from its prehistoric beginnings to the work of women shamans across the globe today. Shamanism was not only humankind’s first spiritual and healing practice, it was originally the domain of women. This is the claim of Barbara Tedlock’s provocative and myth-shattering book. Reinterpreting generations of scholarship, Tedlock–herself an expert in dreamwork, divination, and healing–explains how and why the role of women in shamanism was misinterpreted and suppressed, and offers a dazzling array of evidence, from prehistoric African rock art to modern Mongolian ceremonies, for women’s shamanic powers. Tedlock combines firsthand accounts of her own training among the Maya of Guatemala with the rich record of women warriors and hunters, spiritual guides, and prophets from many cultures and times. Probing the practices that distinguish female shamanism from the much better known male traditions, she reveals: • The key role of body wisdom and women’s eroticism in shamanic trance and ecstasy • The female forms of dream witnessing, vision questing, and use of hallucinogenic drugs • Shamanic midwifery and the spiritual powers released in childbirth and monthly female cycles • Shamanic symbolism in weaving and other feminine arts • Gender shifting and male-female partnership in shamanic practice Filled with illuminating stories and illustrations, The Woman in the Shaman’s Body restores women to their essential place in the history of spirituality and celebrates their continuing role in the worldwide resurgence of shamanism today.

Attorneys with no concern for justice, conspire to fabricate an outcome of a dispute, because they are aware that if their client submits evidence to the Judge, this evidence is not to be taken into account by the Judge anyway.

Book Synopsis Shaman of the Mountain by : Bob Ryan
Download or read book Shaman of the Mountain written by Bob Ryan and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-09 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herein is the story of a boy Rusty whose heartstrings are stretched taut with happiness, fright, sorrow, shame and physical pain while budding to adulthood. Rusty's often self inflicted predicaments are conveyed in hindsight with hilarious jocularity while the urgency of their real occurrence in time are confessed with honest clarity so profuse it's impossible not to become entangled in Rusty's wheeling emotions. The joy and innocence of Rusty's spirited childhood is slowly eroded by deceit, misunderstandings, mistakes and heartbreak, yet Rusty rushes energetically forward while stumbling into brief rations of excitement and love for fuel. It arduously teaches Rusty to try to look at life with a little bit of levity and be convinced that another good time is bound to come sooner or later. The book shows the things we often work for the hardest sometimes become what we wanted least, and during such work we discover the things we just happen to get are of what sweet dreams are made.
