Teachings of the Peyote Shamans: The Five Points of Attention

Haven't finished it, but it is well written and tells about the real word of shamanism as opposed to Casteneda's new age fantasy type stuff. Much detail of Huichol culture and a very personal story. Really fascinating, I look forward to contiuing...

For those walking a shamanic path, this is a valuable addition to your library. Reads like an ethnographic novel, but is real. Also a rather quick read. You can do it in a day.

More than merely a book, Teachings of the Peyote Shamans is an experience.James Endredy takes the reader on a pilgrimage of discovery, unearthing a realm within one's Self, which is an extension of the Cosmos from which all life and Existence springs...Anecdotal references are one level of education... The sharing and communicating of first hand accounts are another... Here the author invites the reader into a world of contemplation, and an experience of examination...Look beyond [and through] everyday habituated perception, and encounter a current of energy that flows like a mighty river within the life-force of every Being...

A serious work, well written and full of details. Endredy gives you a good glimpse on the habits and thought system of the secretive huicholes. I couldn't put it down. Recommended
