Carlos Castaneda Second Ring Power (14 results)

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Jacket Painting and Design by Robert Giusti (illustrator). 1st Edition. The fourth volume in Carlos Castaneda's influential series chronicling his apprenticeship with the Yaqui shaman Don Juan Matus. In this work Castaneda expands the narrative beyond Don Juan himself, focusing on the circle of female apprentices and sorcerers who inhabit the same mystical tradition. The book explores themes of perception, transformation, and the tension between rational consciousness and alternate modes of awareness - ideas that helped make Castaneda one of the most widely read and controversial figures in 1970s spiritual and anthropological literature. His books became international bestsellers and played a major role in introducing shamanistic and altered-consciousness themes to a broad Western readership. Published by Hodder and Stoughton in 1978, this is the true first British edition, printed in Great Britain and reproduced from the original Simon & Schuster setting.

Carlos Castaneda (1925-1998) was a Peruvian-born American anthropologist and writer whose books describing his apprenticeship with the Yaqui shaman Don Juan Matus became international publishing phenomena. Beginning with The Teachings of Don Juan (1968), his works blended anthropology, mysticism, and narrative experimentation, selling millions of copies worldwide and influencing the counterculture's interest in shamanism and altered states of consciousness.

Starting in 1968, Castaneda published a series of books that describe a training in shamanism that he received under the tutelage of a Yaqui "Man of Knowledge" named don Juan Matus. Synopsis: Carlos Castaneda's extraordinary journey into the world of sorcery has captivated millions of Americans. In his eagerly awaited new book, he takes the reader into a sorceric experience so intense, so terrifying, and so profoundly disturbing that it can only be described as a brilliant assault on the reason, the dramatic and frightening attack on every preconceived notion of life that is don Juan's remarkable legacy to his apprentice.
