Description

Description from Harvard LibraryCloud

The author discovered a method by which spirit-conductive altered conscious states can be studied. During the course of her experimentation, the author and her coworkers discovered thirty postures which made possible what she terms psychological archeology. They found that their visionary experiences were not merely personal visions but in many cases were manifestations of some of the most ancient myths of Western folklore and non-Western religious traditions. Individuals during these trances were experiencing a recreation of the sacred part of the lifeways of the hunters and gatherers. This book includes a practical guide on how to achieve such ecstatic experiences.--Provided by publisher.
