The rediscovery that each
one of us can achieve the direct, transformative connection with the sacred realms
lies right at the heart of the spiritual reawakening sweeping the Western world- a
phenomenon explored by anthropologist Hank Wesselman, Ph.D., in his widely read book
The Journey to the Sacred Garden. In Spirit Medicine, Dr. Wesselman is joined by his
wife, transpersonal medical practitioner Jill Kuykendall, RPT., to present us with a
cross-cultural consideration of illness, healing, and health care from the ancient
wisdom of the traditional peoples. Spirit Medicine opens a window into a universal
worldview that will help you:
-
understand the classic
causes of illness--an essential step in true healing;
-
work with the four
levels of spiritual healing;
-
expand your connections
to inner sources of wisdom and power; and
-
deepen your contacts
with your helping spirits and healing masters.
Spirit Medicine will provide you
with the singular key to success that energy medicine by itself lacks. It will also
provide you with a perspective derived from the Hawaiian kahuna tradition in which
knowledge of the soul cluster, as well as the multileveled nature of reality, forms
the foundation. Included is an experiential CD of shamanic drumming and rattling to
be used with specific exercises and meditations designed to enhance your healing
practice for yourself and others.
Spirit Medicine reconsiders and
reworks the time-tested techniques pioneered by the shamans of the indigenous
peoples, providing nontribal Westerners with extraordinarily effective insights into
healing and problem solving.
Words of Praise
"SPIRIT MEDICINE reveals an indigenous medical system that is so sophisticated it
makes ours look amateurish in many respects, especially regarding the role of spirit,
consciousness, and love in healing. This book is a window that sheds vital light on
our own healing system, without which it will never be complete. Hank Wesselman and
Jill Kuykendall are to be commended. They are skillful guides and a bridge between
two worlds. SPIRIT MEDICINE does what any good book should do: it helps the reader
translate words into a living reality, thereby changing one's
life."
--Larry
Dossey, M.D., Author of Healing Beyond The Body, Reinventing Medicine
and Healing Words.
RUTH REDDINGFORD
and the Wolf
Hank has also written a book for
children of all ages. "Children will enjoy this lively new rendition of an age-old
classic. Little Ruth Reddingford loves visiting her grandmother, so when Grandma can't
pick her up for their week-end picnic, Red takes matters into her own hands. While
taking an short-cut through the woods, she is confronted by bullies. The ensuing
adventure takes a surprising twist as Red discovers the power of her Native American
heritage and makes an unusual new friend."

At the heart of spiritual
awakening lies the discovery that each of us can achieve the direct, transformative
connection with the sacred realms that defines the mystic. The Journey to the Sacred
Garden guides us along a well-traveled path into this extraordinary experience and
includes an experiential CD of shamanic drumming and rattling, providing us with an
effective, easily learned technique for expanding awareness and shifting
consciousness safely. The first goal: to find our Sacred Garden, a place for personal
empowerment; as well as physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual
restoration. Once there, we learn through direct experience that the garden can be
used as a gateway into the other levels of the inner worlds.
Anthropologist Hank
Wesselman, Ph.D., reveals that our garden operates by four primary rules:
-
Everything in the
garden is symbolic of some aspect of ourselves or our life experience.
-
Everything in the
garden can be communicated with, enhancing understanding.
-
The garden can be
changed by doing gardenwork.
-
When you change your
garden, some part of you or your life will change in response.

An astonishing true story
of an anthroplologist's quest into a world of magic, mysticism and meaning. Not since
Carlos Castaneda's tutelage under the Yaqui Indian guide Don Juan has there been a
spiritual autobiography quite like SPIRITWALKER. Hank Wesselman's incredible true story
begins with a series of vivid dreams he had while living on the flank of an active
volcano in Hawai'i. Eventually Dr. Wesselman became convinced that what he'd
experienced were not merely dreams but a visionary encounter with what shamans have
long called the 'spirit world.'
|
|
In this world, he met a
fellow traveler, a Hawaiian kahuna mystic named Nainoa. What did Nainoa seek from Dr.
Wesselman? What did the anthropologist have to learn from this exotic traveler from
another time and place? Maintaining his scientific objectivity, Dr. Wesselman embarked
on a mystical journey beyond the boundaries of ordinary consciousness. The result is a
fascinating adventure, an exciting discovery, and the story of how a hard-headed
scientific realist may have stumbled on an important piece in the puzzle of human
evolution.
Socially urgent and
disturbingly prophetic, SPIRITWALKER has a universal mythic resonance and an
undeniable relevance for today as it challenges our perceptions of our world. our
reality, and our future.
REVIEWS of SPIRITWALKER
What a fabulous,
stunning, inspiring account! This book explodes our narrow ways of thinking about the
nature of the mind, and reveals consciousness as it really is -- unbounded, beyond
brain and body, infinite in space and time, divine. Wesselman is a bold visionary and
a courageous scientist whose mission is to find and reveal Truth. SPIRITWALKER
is a modern hero's journey. It is the story of someone who risks everything, and
whose wisdom and acts of courage may help redeem us.
--Larry Dossey, M.D. Author of Healing Words: The Power of Prayer and the Practice of
Medicine, Meaning & Medicine, Recovering the Soul

In the brilliant
visionary tradition of Carlos Castaneda, anthopologist Hank Wesselman first
documented his spiritual journey in the internationally acclamied SPIRITWALKER. His
travels through the spirit world continue in this astonishing book, leading us into
the heart of one of the greatest mysteries of existence.
Dr. Wesselman's inspiring
quest began with a dramatic spiritual encounter on the island of Hawai'i in which his
mind was brought into connection with the consciousness of another man named Nainoa,
a kahuna initiate and fellow mystic traveler. Though he feared his connection to
Nainoa would be severed when he moved to San Diego in 1989, in the year that
followed, he experienced a trance of intense, exquisite clarity in which his mind
once again merged with that of Nainoa.
|
It became obvious that their odyssey of discovery had just begun, and the true purpose of
their profound yet cryptic contact began to take shape. It became apparent that Wesselman
had gained access to some inner doorway, putting him in the presence of a transcendent life
force and intelligence. On the threshold of a dazzling new understanding of nature, he was
a shaman in training, an initiate into the sacred, secret healing powers of the spirit
world.
This remarkable book also takes us on
expedition to Africa and gives us an unprecedented glimpse into the origin and destiny of
our species. Hank Wesselman has brought back from his extraordinary travels an
extraordinary message: the keys to personal power and the healing of all humankind.
