Product Description
Product Description
Some twenty years ago, anthropologist Carlos Castaneda electrified millions of readers by describing his initiation--under the Yaqui Indian "brujo"Don Juan--into an alternate reality. Now Taisha Abelar, who was taught by the female members of Don Juan's group, recounts her own "crossing" in this arresting book.
While traveling in Mexico, Abelar became involved with a group of sorcerers and began a rigorous physical and mental training process designed to enable her to breach the limits of ordinary perception. The Sorcerers Crossing details that process, giving us a highly practical sense of the responsibilities and perils that face a woman sorcerer. Abelar's enthralling story is invaluable as a virtual "sorcerers manual," as anthropology, and as a provocative work of women's spirituality.

For a person who has been reading and following Carlos Castanedas accounts of his apprenticeship it is refreshing and joyful to read an account that corroborates his accounts. I was deeply moved and inspired by Taisha`s experiences as she was taught how to manipulate her perception. I feel it provoked a fundamental change in myself and lead me to re-order my life. One can truly achieve remarkable things with the philosophical basis of what Taisha and Carlos describes. What is best about Taisha`s account for me is the clarity and readability of her writing. Sometimes Carlos Castaneda`s writing of the dialogues can be hard going and repetitive. All in all Sorcerers Crossing is a very worthwhile read indeed.

I really loved this book. Taisha Abelar like Carlos Castandeda before her seems to be irritatingly mental from start to finish and one wonders why she was chosen. That said, her teachers are wonderful and humerous and I found I could not put the book down but was left feeling like I had just enjoyed the starters only to find the chef had not done the course in cooking mains and puddings. Very frustrating to find there was no follow up....

The Sorcerer's crossing is the story of Taisha Abelar's spiritual development. It's honest funny and moving. I read her book roughly ten years ago and I still remember the book so clearly.
As a practicing Clairvoyant of over twenty years I have recomended this book many times to people who genuinely what to grow and learn toltec ways. Even if your not interested in pursuing the toltec ways this book will take you to another world where anything is posable.
