     My current read is Carlos Castaneda’s "The Teachings of Don Juan:  A Yaqui Way of Knowledge".  It’s the anthropologist’s (Castaneda) experiences with a Yaqui Indian shaman, Don Juan, in Sonora, Mexico.  Early on, I’ve been interested in things occult, but never really have the diligence to follow through.  I hope this book will help me further become more aware.  How wouldn’t one be amazed in this book and learn that shamans have their own cognition and find terms such as dark sea of awareness as their belief/reality.  Just amazing! 

     I just know I’ll finish this book when I read the introductory quote:

         "For me there is only the traveling on paths that have 

         heart, on any path that may have heart.  There I travel,

         and the only worthwhile challenge is to traverse its full

         length.

         And there I travel looking, looking, breathlessly."
