We are all deeply indebted to him.” —Deepak Chopra

Book Synopsis Carlos Castaneda, Oportunismo Académico Y Los Psiquedélicos Años Sesenta by : Jay Courtney Fikes
Download or read book Carlos Castaneda, Oportunismo Académico Y Los Psiquedélicos Años Sesenta written by Jay Courtney Fikes and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-02 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millones de hispanohablantes consideran verídicos los libros de Carlos Castaneda, probablemente porque la mayoría de ellos no han leído esta traducción al español del libro del profesor Jay Fikes, Carlos Castaneda, oportunismo académico y los psiquedélicos años sesenta. El Dr. Fikes publicó este libro en Canadá en 1993, después de llevar a cabo años de investigación en México y en los Estados Unidos. Ahora dos españoles, Juan Samper y Lourdes Escario, han traducido el libro de Fikes sin retribución económica, convencidos de que será de provecho para todos. La afirmación central de Carlos Castaneda, haber aprendido brujería de un anciano indio yaqui llamado don Juan Matus, se contradice con las pruebas del profesor Jay Fikes. Su investigación revela que los escritos de Castaneda están basados en caricaturas de un huichol llamado Ramón Medina Silva y de otros indios mexicanos que conoció Castaneda. El libro de Fikes expone los elementos más sensacionalistas de la pseudoetnografía encantadora de Castaneda a la vez que examina quién y qué le ayudó a convertirse en un héroe antropológico y en uno de los padrinos del movimiento New Age. El libro de Fikes inspira respeto por los rituales huicholes de los primeros frutos y por las peregrinaciones del peyote, resume las ceremonias de la Native American Church y repasa los momentos culminantes de los años sesenta, la época turbulenta en la que Castaneda se convirtió en un autor de éxito. Fikes muestra cómo y por qué Aldous Huxley, el Dr. Timothy Leary, Gordon Wasson y varios antropólogos de Los Angeles contribuyeron a crear una audiencia ansiosa por creer que los cuentos chinos de Castaneda eran ciertos. Fikes explica cómo y por qué Castaneda y sus aliados antropólogos de la Universidad de California en Los Angeles hicieron de los huicholes un imán para buscadores de chamanes análogos al maestro de ficción de Castaneda, don Juan, poniendo así en peligro las ancestrales peregrinaciones del peyote de los huicholes. Algunos creyentes en las historias sensacionalistas de Castaneda contribuyeron al trágico fallo del Tribunal Supremo de los Estados Unidos de 1990, que denegaba la libertad religiosa a unos 300.000 miembros de la Native American Church que veneran el peyote. La extensa investigación de Fikes y su experiencia de primera mano con peyote entre los huicholes y en las ceremonias de la Native American Church le cualifican de modo excepcional para desacreditar las absurdas alegaciones de Castaneda sobre chamanes y peyote, entre ellas su afirmación de que el espíritu del peyote ("Mescalito") decretó su aprendizaje con don Juan Matus. El autor del prefacio, Dr. Phil Weigand, es Profesor Investigador del Centro de Estudios Arqueológicos en el Colegio de Michoacán. Ha publicado numerosos libros y artículos académicos sobre los huicholes, cuya historia y cultura empezó a estudiar en 1965 en San Sebastián con su esposa, Acelia Garcia. Los traductores de este libro, Lourdes (Clara) Escario y Juan Samper, son españoles. Lourdes Escario es licenciada en Filología Inglesa y profesora de inglés en un instituto de enseñanza secundaria en Palencia. Juan Samper es veterinario y licenciado en Filosofía. Tanto Juan Samper como Jay Fikes han llevado a cabo peregrinaciones bajo la tutela del mismo chamán huichol Jesús González. Carlos Castaneda's books are accepted as truthful by millions of Spanish speakers, probably because most of them have not read this Spanish translation of Professor Fikes' book, Carlos Castaneda, Academic Opportunism and the Psychedelic Sixties. Dr. Fikes published this book in 1993 in Canada, after completing years of research in Mexico and the United States. Now two Spaniards, Juan Samper and Lourdes Escario, have translated Fikes' book without payment, convinced that it is valuable for everybody. Carlos Castaneda's central claim, to have learned sorcery from an elderly Yaqui Indian named don Juan Matus, is contradicted by Professor Jay Fikes' evidence. Fikes'

Book Synopsis Fire from Within by : Carlos Castaneda
Download or read book Fire from Within written by Carlos Castaneda and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carlos Castaneda takes the reader into the very heart of sorcery, challenging both imagination and reason, shaking the very foundations of our belief in what is "natural" and "logical." Fire from Within is the author's most brilliant thought-provoking and unusual book, one in which Castaneda, under the tutelage of don Juan and his "disciples," at last constructs, from the teachings of don Juan and his own experiences, a stunning portrait of the "sorcerer's world" that is crystal-clear and dizzying in its implications. Each of Carlos Castaneda's books is a brilliant and tantalizing burst of illumination into the depths of our deepest mysteries, like a sudden flash of light, like a burst of lightning over the desert at night, which shows us a world that is both alien and totally familiar—the landscape of our dreams.
Book Synopsis The Active Side of Infinity by : Carlos Castaneda
Download or read book The Active Side of Infinity written by Carlos Castaneda and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 1999-12-22 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ordinarily, events that change our path are impersonal affairs, and yet extremely personal. My teacher, don Juan Matsus, said this is guiding me as his apprentice to collect what I considered to be the memorable events of my life…. Don Juan described the total goal of the shamanistic knowledge that he handled as the preparation for facing the definitive journey: the journey that every human being has to take at the end of his life. He said that what modern man referred to vaguely as life after death was, for those shamans, a concrete region filled to capacity with practical affairs of a different order than the practical affairs of daily life, yet bearing a similar functional practicality. Don Juan considered that to collect the memorable in their lives was, for shamans, the preparation for their entrance into that concrete region, which they called the active side of infinity." In this book written immediately before his death, anthropologist and shaman Carlos Castaneda gives us his most autobiographical and intimately revealing work ever, the fruit of a lifetime of experience and perhaps the most moving volume in his oeuvre.
Download or read book Shaman written by Mike Sager and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some say he was a breakthrough academic and visionary shaman. Others say he was a sham. Either way, Carlos Castaneda shaped a generation of mystical thinkers and magic mushroom eaters. In 1968, at the height of the psychedelic age, Castaneda published The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge, the first of twelve books describing his apprenticeship to an Indian shaman, and his journeys to the "separate reality" of the sorcerers' worlds. Like Herman Hesse's Steppenwolf and Aldous Huxley's The Doors of Perception, The Teachings of Don Juan and its sequels became essential reading for legions of truth seekers. Castaneda himself became a cult figure-seldom seen, nearly mythological, a cross between Timothy Leary and L. Ron Hubbard: a short, dapper, Buddha-with-an-attitude who likened his own appearance to that of a "Mexican bellhop." Though Castaneda had more than ten million books in print in seventeen languages, he lived in wily anonymity for nearly thirty years, doing his best, in his own words, to become "as inaccessible as possible." Most people figured he had a house somewhere in the Sonoran Desert, where he'd studied with his own teacher, a leathery old Indian brujo named Don Juan Matus. In truth, Castaneda lived and wrote for most of that time in Westwood Village, a neighborhood of students and professors in Los Angeles, not far from UCLA and Beverly Hills. Upon his death in 1998, things became even more murky. A year-long investigation into the mysterious life and impeccable death of Carlos Castaneda, as told by his wife, his adopted son, his mistresses, and his followers.
Book Synopsis On the Toltec Path by : Ken Eagle Feather
Download or read book On the Toltec Path written by Ken Eagle Feather and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-02-24 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of the teachings made popular by Carlos Castaneda • Offers accessible instructions for Toltec spiritual and mystical practices • Represents the conclusion of an 18-year learning task assigned by don Juan Matus • Includes a new preface for this 10th anniversary edition On the Toltec Path is an overview of the theory, discipline, and practice of the Toltec Way, a philosophy and heightened way of perceiving the world taught by the Indian seer don Juan Matus. As a philosophy, it is a method of inquiry using the Toltec three Rs: re-examination, re-interpretation, and re-formulation. As a way of perceiving the world, it offers sophisticated processes of managing perception through dreaming, visions, and learning to see the world as both ordinary and non-ordinary reality. By contrasting and balancing these two realities we are able to stand apart from both and pick and choose the best each has to offer. Learning how to become a true seer enables us to realize the purpose and meaning of our life. The works of Carlos Castaneda have long been among the best-known introductions for those who wish to study the Toltec Way. However, many who want to learn the practical and technical aspects of this path have found it difficult to discern the details of the techniques buried in Castaneda’s narrative. In this book Ken Eagle Feather provides a complete and accessible explanation of all the technical aspects of the Toltec spiritual and mystical practices. He offers a thorough exploration of Castaneda’s works and a verification of don Juan Matus’s teachings through his own 30 years of personal experiences and observations of the Toltec Way. On the Toltec Path serves as a practical guide to the Toltec Way and offers a valuable complement to the narrative works of Castaneda and other Toltec authors.

Book Synopsis Sorcerer's Apprentice by : Amy Wallace
Download or read book Sorcerer's Apprentice written by Amy Wallace and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2013-07-30 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sorcerer’s Apprentice opens with Amy Wallace’s first meeting with Carlos Castaneda, the infamous anthropologist-turned-shaman, whose books described meetings with Yaqui Indian spiritual teacher don Juan. Castaneda’s rise was meteoric in the late 1960s as he wrote massive bestsellers, inspired many to experiment with psychedelics, and was dubbed “the Godfather of the New Age.” The possibility that Castaneda’s experiences may have been fabricated did little to compromise his legend.As the daughter of best-selling novelist Irving Wallace, Amy was rarely shy around famous people. When her father insisted she meet Castaneda, she at first demurred. Little did she know that a delightful first meeting would begin a 20-year friendship, followed by her descent into the dramatic and deeply troubled affair chronicled in this book. Sorcerer’s Apprentice unblinkingly reveals the inner workings of the “Cult of Carlos,” run by a charismatic authoritarian in his sixties who controlled his young female followers through emotional abuse, mind games, bizarre rituals, dubious teachings, and sexual excess. Wallace’s story is both specific and universal, a captivating cautionary tale about the dangers of giving up one’s power to a tyrant–and about surviving assaults on body and spirit.
