Journeys

The Jaguar that Roams the Mind:
An Amazonian Plant Spirit Odyssey

Inspired by the largely unexplored healing potentials of Amazonian medicine, Robert journeyed through the beleaguered communities of the Amazon to experience first hand their native medicinal tradition. The work shares his journeys through the inner and outer landscape of the churches of ayahuasca and with the Kaxinawa Indians in Brazil; his experiences at the pioneering center for the treatment of addiction, Takiwasi, in Peru; and his studies with the Ashaninca master shaman Juan Flores deep in the rainforest jungle.

Most of all, this book is an engaged attempt to bridge the depths and sacredness of the vegetalismo cosmology and practices to our Western minds.
