SHAMANISM
"SACRED WAYS OF LAKOTA" Black Elk and William S.Lyon
Wallace Black Elk
(1921-2004), a traditional Lakota Elder and spiritual interpreter. A
great soul, a champion of truth. He carried a message of peace and
unity to all who would listen.
An international lecturer, Black Elk taught
traditional Lakota spiritual ways of life throughout the U.S., France,
Germany, Switzerland, Egypt, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, and Australia.
As a Native American representative to the United Nations, he addressed
United Nations Meetings in New York and the International Non-Governmental Organizations Conference in Geneva, Switzerland
Grandfather Wallace was born and raised on the
Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota and has been trained since
childhood in the sacred ways of his people. "Black Elk opens the Lakota sacred hoop to a comic humanism for
everyone. His book will stretch the common definition of shamanism and
lift the Buckskin Curtain to the characters behind the great vision."
"SOUL RETRIEVAL, mending your fragmented self"
by Sandra Ingerman
"...Imagine
yourself sitting in a circle with members of your community. You have
gathered together to support one community member who is suffering from
a traumatic experience. You know that if one person is suffering and is
ill it effects the entire community. So you have come to help hold the
space for healing to happen.
It
is
dark and the stars are shining bright in the night sky. The air is
still. Everyone feels held in the loving arms of the universe and there
is no doubt that healing will happen for all gathered here. The
shaman begins to drum and dance calling the power of the universe to
her as she puts her egoic self aside and becomes an empty vessel that
fills with the help of the spirits. The
client lies quietly in the center breathing deeply to be in a receptive
state to receive back his lost soul; his lost vitality. The
shaman sings her journey out loud as she tracks down where the soul has
fled. And on finding it returns and blows it deeply into the heart of
the client filling the entire body with the light of life. There is a
great joy for all as one heals all are healed. The community is now
whole again and can be in peace and harmony. The work is done."

(quote)
"Shamanic
journeying is the inner art of traveling to the "invisible worlds"
beyond ordinary reality to retrieve information for change in any area
of our lives—from spirituality and health to work and relationships. On
The Beginner’s Guide to Shamanic Journeying CD, Sandra Ingerman shares
the core teachings of this transformative practice, including the
original role of the shaman in indigenous societies, how to meet and
work with your "power animal" and other spirit teachers, and the keys
to successful journeying in our modern culture. Complete with authentic
drumming and guidance for three shamanic journeys."
