Carlos Castaneda Livres

En écrivant Le Voyage définitif, j'ai suivi les instructions de don Juan qui voulait me voir constituer une sorte d'album, une collection de souvenirs mémorables. Selon lui, la connaissance chamanique avait pour dessein ultime de nous préparer à affronter le " voyage définitif ", celui que doit faire chacun de nous au terme de sa vie. Ce que l'homme moderne, disait-il, désigne sous la vague expression de " vie après la mort " était pour ces chamans une existence concrète débordant d'activités pratiques, certes différentes de celles de notre vie habituelle, mais tout aussi pragmatiques et fonctionnelles. Se remémorer les épisodes importants de leur vie les préparaient à aborder ces contrées nouvelles qu'ils appelaient le " côté actif de l'infini ". Carlos Castaneda.

Carlos Castaneda livre la quintessence de l'enseignement que don Juan, sorcier Yaqui du Mexique, lui prodigua, l'exacte nature de son initiation à la pratique et au projet du chamanisme moderne : la recherche d'une totale liberté spirituelle et terrestre. On y découvrira comment, dans la conscience et l'usage des rêves, existe un chemin vers d'autres mondes conjoints au nôtre

Carlos Castaneda takes the reader into the very heart of sorcery, challenging both imagination and reason, shaking the very foundations of our belief in what is "natural" and "logical."The Power of Silence is Castaneda's most astonishing book to date—a brilliant flash of knowledge that illuminates the far reaches of the human mind. Through don Juan's mesmerizing stories, the true meaning of sorcery and magic is finally revealed. Honed in the desert of Sonora, the visions of don Juan give us the vital secrets of belief and self-realization that are transcendental and valid for us all. It is Castaneda's unique genius to show us that all wisdom, strength, and power lie within ourselves—unleashed with marvelous energy and imaginative force in the teachings of don Juan—and in the writings of his famous pupil, Carlos Castaneda

Each of Carlos Castaneda's books is a tantalizing burst of illumination into the depths of our deepest mysteries, like a sudden flash of light, like a burst of lightning over the desert at night, which shows us a world that is both alien & totally familiar--the landscape of our dreams. Fire from Within is the author's most brilliant thought-provoking & unusual book, one in which Castaneda, under the tutelage of don Juan & his disciples, at last constructs, from the teachings of don Juan & his own experiences, a stunning portrait of the "sorcerer's world" that is crystal-clear & dizzying in its implications.

A practical guide to Castaneda's techniques as taught to him by the shamans of Ancient Mexico. For the first time he brings us the profound and practical applications of the wisdom of Don Juan Matus.

Carlos Castaneda takes the reader into the very heart of sorcery, challenging both imagination and reason, shaking the very foundations of our belief in what is "natural" and "logical."Don Juan concludes the instruction of Castaneda with his most powerful and mysterious lesson in the sorcerer's art—a dazzling series of visions that are at once an initiation and a deeply moving farewell.

In Journey to Ixtlan, Carlos Castaneda introduces readers to this new approach for the first time and explores, as he comes to experience it himself, his own final voyage into the teachings of don Juan, sharing with us what it is like to truly “stop the world” and perceive reality on his own terms. Originally drawn to Yaqui Indian spiritual leader don Juan Matus for his knowledge of mind-altering plants, bestselling author Carlos Castaneda immersed himself in the sorcerer’s magical world entirely. Ten years after his first encounter with the shaman, Castaneda examines his field notes and comes to understand what don Juan knew all along—that these plants are merely a means to understanding the alternative realities that one cannot fully embrace on one’s own.

This is the second in the Don Juan series, in which the author is able to enter and see the sorcerer's world with the aid of hallucinogenic drugs, a strong will and courage. The author's other books include The Teachings of Don Juan and The Quest for Ixtlan.

Transformed by Don Juan from a bent, gray-haired old woman into a sensual sorceress whose mission is to test Castaneda, Dona Soledad turns her mysterious and awesome powers against Castaneda in a struggle that nearly consumes him.
