Book Description

Release Date: Mar 3 1985
A YAQUI WAY OF KNOWLEDGE

The teachings of don Juan is the story of a remarkable journey: the first awesome steps on the road to becoming a "man of knowledge" -- the road that continues with A Separate Reality and Journey to Ixtlan.

"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." -- Don Juan

Product Description

From Library Journal

Original publisher University of California Press here offers a 30th-anniversary edition of Castenada's Teachings. Along with the original text, this sports a new introduction by the author, who, it was revealed recently, died earlier this year. Though this is reasonably priced for a hardcover, libraries needing multiples copies may opt for the paperback.

Amazing book, everyone should read it. The teachings of Don Juan are cryptic and mysterious, but something us people in the 21st century should listen to.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good book, but the true writer is an indigenous from Mexico (Puebla) Aug 14 2012
By Monika Müller
Format:Mass Market Paperback
When I read this book in 1979 I found the 2 big parts in this book do not fit to one writer. Thinking, if it is meant to be that I find out about it - it will happen. Almost twenty years later, someone mentioned that a man whom I knew already would have written many books which are well-read in the world in many languages. These books would be published under the name Carlos Castaneda. Since that time I have a different connection to the man who is the true writer of the books. In case you are able to read Spanish and have a chance to travel to Mexico, here is the book's title written from the author about the situation he had with Castaneda: "Cuando sea grande..." Since this poor author had to do all himself, the book does not appear the way readers from North America are used to, but it is well worth to be read.
