Sinossi
Carlos Castaneda, partito intorno alla metà degli anni sessanta alla volta del Messico per una tesi sulle proprietà delle piante psicotrope, si imbatte in Don Juan, sciamano e profondo conoscitore delle "piante che danno potere". Si ferma presso di lui e ne diventa apprendista. Dagli appunti che Castaneda stende in quegli anni, nasceranno i libri. Nel paesaggio allucinato delle aride e desolate plaghe di un Messico diverso, tra le antiche rovine delle civiltà autoctone più remote, l'apprendista raggiunge il livello più alto dei poteri magici: ottiene "il dono dell'aquila", la libertà, si scioglie da ogni forma di condizionamento e diviene nagual, energia cosmica pura.

Another great one in an uneven series. This is the first one where Castaneda introduces the concept of the Eagle, which seems like a theistic God concept.

I am going to give the same review to all the Carlos Castaneda books I read in that series, simply because they are all outstanding. I was lucky to come across Castaneda very early on my magickal path. My spells and rituals have always relied on the power of intent, and I have found no better educat Leggi tutto
the review is from my blog: http://artang.wordpress.com/2010/12/1... finished the eagle’s gift by carlos castaneda. carlos’s books are very engaging, now that the book is finished i somehow miss it, i feel somewhat connected to his group, and i feel i know and like a few of them. the book starts very Leggi tutto
This one is out of my league. For the advanced only. The path of heart, however, is still the only safe one. From Buddha and compassion, to Jesus and love, to Aurobindo and bakhti yoga, H. Rednick and the Way of the Beloved, the paths call for the same. Good journeying.
Only the most faithful of Castandea's readers will get through this somewhat tedious book. I love his stuff but must admit that were times when the existential principals set forth had me wondering if i should bother to turn the page. You really only need his 1st 3 ot 4 books.....after that it becom Leggi tutto
