Shamanism
Shamanism - Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy by Mircae Eliade When it was published in Paris in 1951, it brought a new understanding about how previously remote civilisations, which had ostensibly never met, practised the same core shamanic rituals. The author collated anthropologists' interviews with shamans worldwide in the late 19th century, who reported remarkably similar extra-dimensional experiences during their trances, known as the shamanic journey.

The Cosmic Serpent - DNA and the Origins of Knowledge by Jeremy Narby The author works through a number of fields - molecular biology, shamanism, neurology and ancient mythology - to discover that ancient shamanic cultures, from the Australian Aborigines to the Egyptians, have known for millennia about the double helix structure of DNA. He found Peruvian shamans who commune with the data contained in the language of the DNA of plants, which they refer to as 'spirit'. In other words, the spirit of the plant 'talks to them', to reveal its medicinal properties.

Fire in the Head by Tom Cowan In The Song of the Wandering Aengus, W B Yeats refers to the "fire in the head" that characterises the visionary experience of the shaman. Tom Cowan pursues this theme in examining the myths and tales of the ancient Celtic poets and storytellers, and outlines techniques used to access the shaman's world.

Of Water and the Spirit by Malidoma Patrice Some Born in an African village where there was no distinction between the natural and the supernatural world, the author describes how he was kidnapped as a small boy by Jesuits who harshly indoctrinated him into European ways. He finally escaped at the age of 15 and returned to his village where he was initiated back into shamanism. But as Malidoma has 'walked between two worlds' it makes him an ideal teacher of shamanism for those us who have the misfortune to "think like a white man."

Shamanic Healing

The Shamanic Way of the Bee by Simon Buxton Simon Buxton is not only an elder of the shamanic bee cultus; he's a born storyteller with the ear of a poet. Once he grounds you in the material events of ordinary reality, he begins the cross-over through the veil into extra-ordinary events. It's important that his poetic skill is strong because those events need a strong metaphoric tongue to tell them. Indeed, the reader needs a developed sense of metaphor to perceive the truths at the heart of these mysteries.

Follow the Shaman's Call by Mike Williams Drawing on 30,000 years of primeval wisdom, this engaging, hands-on guide teaches how to transform increasingly busy and stressful lives by following the ancient shamanic path of their ancestors. Discover how to meet your spirit guides, journey to the otherworlds for healing and self-empowerment, and bring back lost souls. You'll also learn how to apply the knowledge in a variety of practical ways: predicting the future and understanding the past.

Soul Retrieval by Sandra Ingerman With warmth and compassion, Sandra Ingerman describes the dramatic results of combining soul retrieval with contemporary psychological concepts in this visionary work that revives the ancient shamanic tradition of soul retrieval for healing emotional and physical illness.

Shamanic Science
AUDIO CD: Spontaneous Evolution: Our Positive Future and How to get There from Here by Bruce Lipton This world-renowned expert in the emerging science of epigenetics reveals how our changing understanding of biology will help us navigate this turbulent period in our planet's history, and how each of us can participate in this global shift. He takes us through a journey of discovery through topics such as toppling the "unquestionable" pillars of biology: a startling re-examination of random evolution, survival of the fittest, the role of DNA, and the relationship between mind and matter.
