In the Spirit of Black Elk: Preserving a Sacred Way (Sacred Earth) (Volume 1) Torrey James Lystra 1º edição

"In The Spirit Of Black Elk: Preserving A Sacred Way", tells the true story of how a backcountry park ranger and naturalist was taken under Wallace Black Elk's wing, one of North America's most prominent shamans, to be taught many of the principles and practices of the Lakota wichasa wakan. This writing shares much of that teaching as it was learned and experienced by the author, an American born grandson of a protestant minister. Probe the unknown with him as he traces his footsteps in transformation from apprentice to neophyte shaman. Be a part of his initiation ceremony inside the Great Pyramid in Egypt where he shares his first contact with an angel. Share in her wisdom dialogues with the author about our role in the possibility of the next great era on our planet. Photographs from that teaching or the author's paintings begin each chapter to offer another level to the reader's understanding of this unique material.
