The Teachings of Don Juan: A Yaqui Way of Knowledge

Author: Carlos Castaneda
Stars: 3
Review by: Maya

 An interesting yet logically challenging account of the potential for a non-ordinary reality in which a Mexican "sorcerer" teaches the author about the hidden powers of certain plants and animals and how to access them. The author was a Master's student at UCLA at the time. The author describes his spiritual journey and the fears and challenges that he confronts along the way.  Not for everyone. Must keep an open mind and/or treat this book as fiction even though it is written as non-fiction. You decide.
