Access the gifts of transformation, heal the self, and live in harmony with one another and with the Earth by journeying through the wisdom wheel—a fresh take on the traditional medicine wheel—its archetypes, and its four wisdom challenges. The teachings of the medicine wheel have existed from the beginning of time. Today, however, we are creating modern paradigms of shamanism while drawing on the sacred traditions of the past. In this book, shamanic practitioner Alberto Villoldo explains that the medicine wheel is also a wisdom wheel: an advanced tool for working toward personal and planetary transformation. By journeying through the wisdom wheel and its four directions—South, West, North, and East—each of which is associated with an archetypal animal and sacred journey, you will be able to access powerful healing energies and step into a new personal and collective destiny.

Aims to show the reader how to contact the spirit of the Native American totem animals, using special cards. There are three levels of attainment: White Eagle Apprentice; White Eagle Medicine Student; and White Eagle Elder, which uses all the cards in the form of a medicine wheel.

Using a commentary on the influential text, the Mañjuśrī-nāmasaṃgīti, ‘The Chanting of the Names of Mañjuśrī’, this book deals with Buddhist tantric meditation practice and its doctrinal context in early-medieval India. The commentary was written by the 8th-9th century Indian tantric scholar Vilāsavajra, and the book contains a translation of the first five chapters. The translation is extensively annotated, and accompanied by introductions as well as a critical edition of the Sanskrit text based on eight Sanskrit manuscripts and two blockprint editions of the commentary’s Tibetan translation. The commentary interprets its root text within an elaborate framework of tantric visualisation and meditation that is based on an expanded form of the Buddhist Yoga Tantra mandala, the Vajradhātu-maṇḍala. At its heart is the figure of Mañjuśrī, no longer the familiar bodhisattva of wisdom, but now the embodiment of the awakened non-dual gnosis that underlies all Buddhas as well their activity in the cosmos. The book contributes to our understanding of the history of Indian tantric Buddhism in a period of significant change and innovation. With its extensively annotated translation and lengthy introductions the book is designed to appeal not only to professional scholars and research students but also to contemporary Buddhists.

Sacred knowledge to understand ourselves and the natural world. White Eagle Medicine Wheel is a unique pack designed as a simple, step-by-step guide to the sacred teachings of Native Americans. Using the illustrated book and its powerful deck of cards, and with Wa-Na-Nee-Che as your guide, you will progress through three levels of learning. You will be taught how to communicate with the animals who will show you their medicine ways; you will discover how to access the energies and teachings of our elders; and you will learn how to use the four creative sources of power through their archetypal symbols. White Eagle Medicine Wheel is a resource for problem-solving on all fronts, whether at home, at work, or in relationships. You will quickly realize that its teachings generate remarkable inspiration and intuitive powers. The native peoples of America are appalled at the way we are treating our planet and feel that we are on the brink of social and ecological disaster. They believe that only through deeper spiritual understanding of ourselves and of the natural world can this be prevented. Until recently, Native Americans have been reluctant to share their wisdom with the Western world. But now, with the agreement of elders and spiritual advisors in the United States and Canada, Wa-Na-Nee-Che, and his scribe Eliana, reveal how this sacred knowledge can benefit us all. Wa-Na-Nee-Che-- which in Lakota means He who is needed by the people-- is one of the very few remaining Native Americans willing to share the original wisdom of the old way of life. He will help you to discover the inner self. You will learn how to live in harmony, not only with yourself, but with all living things around you, and with all the children of Mother Earth. You will never look back. * Native American wisdom for everyday use * Easy-to-use method for problem-solving, healing yourself and others * 46 beautiful medicine wheel cards * Illustrated book gives full instructions on using the cards
