She is a shining light in my life, and I know she can become on in yours through this fine, empowering book!" -- Brooke Medicine Eagle, author of Buffalo Women Comes Singing

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very good at all, Feb 23 2003
By 
Romantic Anna (Bronx, NY United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Four-Fold Way (Paperback)
My main problem with the book was that there just wasn't much to it, both in terms of the writing (very wishy-washy) to the ideas. The author descibes 4 paths but does not do a good job of telling a person how to incorporate the concepts into daily life. Some other reviewers had much that was positive to say but I would argue that this book was like a cheerleading manual than a thoughtful guide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting philosophy but not good for Shamanism, May 28 2000
By 
W. Lambdin "Two Bears" (Ellensburg, WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Four-Fold Way (Paperback)
This book claims to teach you to walk the paths of the Warrior, Teacher, Healer, and Visionary.

This book teaches four different kinds of meditation.

This book places the elements in other directions than I do, but if this technique speaks to you, by all means use it. The fact that you honor the elements, and treat them with respect is more important than the directions you associate them with.

This book describes the four brainwave frequencies beta, alpha, theta, and delta, but the frequencies are wrong.

delta (deep sleep) 4-7 HTZ

theta (light sleep) 7-11 HTZ

alpha (most meditation occurs here) 11-17 HTZ

beta (Wakeful consciousness) 17-21 HTZ

Appendix E was VERY informative. It described where the author has some people listen to Shamanic drumming tapes (3.5-4 beats per second)without telling them any thing in advance, then getting their experieces afterward...

If you want to learn Shamanism, I would recommend these books in this order.

"Shamanic Experience" Kenneth Meadows

"Shamanism: As A Spiritual Practise For Daily Life" Tom Cowan

"Shamanism" Gordon MacLellan

"The Way of the Shaman" Michael Harner

"Secrets Of Shamanism: Tapping the Spirit Power Within You" Jose and Lena Stevens

"Rainbow Medicine: A Visionary Guide to Native American Shamanism" Wolf Moondance
