Book Description
* Revised and expanded edition of the pioneering book that explores the shamanic techniques used for astral travel. * Clearly explains how shamans from different cultures use psychonavigation, or astral travel, to reach both physical destinations and sources of inner wisdom. * Describes how to attune with the forces of nature and apply these techniques to improve all areas of life.
This groundbreaking book is the author's firsthand account of his encounters with the Shuar of the Amazon, the Quechua of the Andes, and the Bugis of Indonesia, all of whom use the shamanic technique of psychonavigation--a means of traveling outside the body. Shuar shamans psychonavigate for the purposes of hunting and healing, while the Bugis, among the most renowned sailors in the world, use these techniques to navigate without the aid of charts and compasses. The author explains how these techniques work and how the people of these indigenous cultures psychonavigate to both physical destinations and sources of inner wisdom.
Psychonavigation has been practiced throughout history by highly creative minds such as Beethoven, Jung, and Einstein, and the author describes ways that readers can apply the same techniques to attune with the forces in nature and to attract the inner guidance they seek. Once that guidance is established, psychonavigation can be used for making wise decisions and developing innovative approaches to challenges in all areas of life.

Good Storytelling and Useful Techniques,
By A Customer
This review is from: Psychonavigation Revised Edition (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book, having read Perkin's other books, Shapeshifting and World As You Dream It. The thing that I especially liked about this one was that he included a shamanic journeying technique at the end of his book. Therefore, not only do you get the great storytelling and inspiration found in the other two books, but you also get a useful tool which you can easily incorporate into your life. Another bonus of this book is that it is not exclusively centered upon the Shuar of South America. Perkins also recounts his journeys and experiences in the Andes and Indonesia. This is the book where you learn in-depth about Perkin's experiences that led him to further develop his interactions with the Shuar -- experiences briefly mentioned in the two books above. Even if you are the kind of person who tends to shy away from personal stories in spirituality books, I still recommend this book. I'm one too, and yet I find Perkin's works valuable.

I Flew!,
This review is from: Psychonavigation Revised Edition (Paperback)
When I read this book, I could not put it down. I flew! I read "Shapeshifting" by Perkins also and loved it. I came to "Psychonavigation" expecting to hear more of the same. But was I in for a pleasant surprise! This is a terrific book -- and it complements Shapeshifting. Perkins is a powerful teacher. He has helped me transform my life and learned to fly! What more can I say? Except: Read it!

Huge Disappointment,
By Path walker - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Psychonavigation Revised Edition (Paperback)
I have read hundreds of books and many were not worth the time or money, but this book is so bad that I had to write this review to warn others. Don't get me wrong, if you enjoy reading the autobiography of people you don't know, this may be the book for you. If, on the other hand, you're like me and searching for books that will help you along the spiritual path, save your money. I was drawn to this book on Amazon based on several "5 star" reviews claiming the book was of great benefit. Most of the book chronicles the author's life as a Peace Corps volunteer. The only practical part of the book is a short chapter that is supposed to teach the technique of "psychonavigation". The gist of the chapter is "Learn how to meditate". If you already practice meditation, this book is of no help to you. If you want to learn how to meditate, this book is not for you either. There are far better books to check out if you want to start a practice of meditation. BUYER, DEFINITELY BEWARE.

It's All About The Journey ~ Lessons Along The Way,
By Brian E. Erland "Rainbow Sphinx" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Psychonavigation Revised Edition (Paperback)
'Psychonavigation' by John Perkins is a thin, but extremely potent book that you will read over and over again. Only 144 pages in length, it's a very quick read, just an hour or two and you're done. However don't confuse brevity in length with lack of depth and content. There is much insight and wisdom within.Journey with John in his cross cultural travels as he shares tales about the old ways of knowing and how they can be applied in any kind of modern setting, urban or otherwise. His stories and experiences are the real jewel of this book and will leave the reader with an almost transcendental feeling of joy and wonderment about the marvelous and mystical world in which we live! My Highest Recommendation!! |
