Shamanic Wisdom Meets the Western Mind provides a synthesis of realms of knowledge that hitherto were either blinded out from human consciousness or that were seen from a disparaging perspective that is in turn the result of a fragmented perception.

This edition of the Great Mind series Françoise Dolto and Child Psychoanalysis has been revised, updated, and reformatted. It is about one of the greatest psychoanalysts the world has known. The author interviewed Françoise Dolto in 1986, after having visited La Maison Verte in Paris, a center Dr. Dolto had created for parents and children that mainly served to prepare children for greater lapses of time away from their parents and the early kindergarten experience.

Terence McKenna (1946-2000) has been studying the ontological foundations of shamanism and the ethnopharmacology of spiritual transformation for the past quarter century. An innovative theoretician and spellbinding orator, McKenna emerged as a powerful voice for the psychedelic movement and the emergent societal tendency he calls The Archaic Revival, one of his most popular books. In 1993, McKenna wrote in This World and Its Double. It’s clearly a crisis of two things: of consciousness and conditioning.

Basics of Feng Shui: The Art and Science of Sensing the Energies is an introduction into a perennial science that originated from the ancient Chinese practice of arrangement of space, which is claimed to achieve harmony with the environment. There is scientific evidence now that feng shui is effective and not just a belief system, as astrology is not a belief system. Feng shui is a science of the bioenergy and perhaps the oldest distillation of this holistic knowledge.

Consciousness and Shamanism is the result of the author's Ayahuasca voyage in 2004 to Ecuador, where he was drinking the sacred brew in the presence of an experienced Shuar shaman. He puts up the hypothesis that when the traditional Ayahuasca brew is ingested, it is not, or not directly, the plant's DMT that causes the spiritual voyage as it is assumed in the overwhelming part of the literature on shamanism and entheogens. It is the shaman's super-consciousness impacting directly upon the consciousness of the shaman's client, the seeker of truth who comes to drink the brew.

Villoldo directs the Four Winds Society, where he trains individuals throughout the world in the practice of energy medicine and soul retrieval. While at San Francisco State University, he founded the Biological Self-Regulation Laboratory, to study how the mind creates psychosomatic health and disease, and it was with this research intention in mind, that he left his orderly life and ventured into the Andes, to find a knowledge that dates back thousands of years among native shamans and natural healers.

This is an essay on the unique teaching of J. Krishnamurti. It starts with the question "What is consciousness?" - and carefully proposes a holistic definition, after reviewing the various psychological and spiritual theories that deal with this subject. The author actually goes a step ahead and focuses on a more particular issue, a provocative question asked by K: “How to empty consciousness of its content?”

This book is a scholarly yet practical edition of the I Ching both for beginners and seasoned practitioners. The special focus of this divination guide is upon leadership, self-leadership, and leading others. The central concern of the author is to help the reader understand the I Ching from a point of view of decision-making, and as an aid to decision-making. In this sense, the ‘oracle book’ becomes an effective guide for taking action, which can mean bold action, nonaction or retreat. The wisdom is to arrive at right action, in whatever form it has to be carried out.

On the level of the collective unconscious, this study shows, the historical transition from matriarchy to patriarchy has not taken place. On the contrary, it appears that the intrinsic symbolism of the soul level, the content of the unconscious, the level of spiritual visions, is one of the matriarchal gods and cosmic energy holders, such as the mythic or lunar bull, and the serpent.

La Saggezza Sciamanica Incontra la Mente Occidentale: Un’Indagine sulla Natura dello Sciamanesimo’ fornisce una sintesi di regni della conoscenza che finora sono stati accecati dalla coscienza umana o che sono stati visti da una prospettiva denigratoria che è a sua volta il risultato di una percezione frammentata. Lo sciamanesimo, le tradizioni scientifiche perenni e la scienza moderna sono state relegate in ambiti cognitivi ed esperienziali diversi; erano argomenti apparentemente diversi, mentre in realtà appartengono al sistema.

I erect the hypothesis that when the traditional Ayahuasca brew is ingested, it is not, or not directly, the plant’s DMT that causes the spiritual voyage, as it is assumed in the overwhelming part of the literature on shamanism and entheogens.
