DESCRIPTION:
Peter Messerschmidt said An Excellent Introduction to Shamanism!. I am always a bit suspicious of books that makes claims such as the subtitle of this one: "The only introdution you'll ever need." However, Leo Rutherford does an excellent job of covering the major aspects of Shamanism in enough detail to give the novice (or curious) a basic sense of what is entailed in this ancient spiritual path-- all in a scant 160 pages.The book-- in a concise fashion-- covers a definition of Shamanism and mythology, then introduces the reader briefly to the concepts of the Medicine Wheel; the "tools" of Shamanic living-- including ceremony and ritual; journeying and soul retrievals-- including. "Waste of Money!" according to A Customer. I was fooled into believing that "Principles of Shamanism" is a different book from "Way of Shamanism" - THEY'RE THE SAME BOOK!!!! Buy one or the other - buying both is a waste of money!At least buy one of them though, it's a great book.. and the journey begins A Customer This is a great guide and over-view of all the major aspects of shamanism!!
Shamanism is the oldest spiritual path on this planet, with roots tracing back more than 50,000 years.
