Product Description

Review
"Publication of these outstanding paintings of ayahuasca visions experienced by a native medicine man, Pablo Amaringo, and interpreted by the distinguished anthropologist Luis Eduardo Luna permits us to understand the unworldly psychic effects of the 'vine of the soul.'"
-Professor Richard Schultes, Director, Botanical Museum of Harvard University
"Pablo Amaringo and Luis Eduardo Luna are to be congratulated for their collaboration. It has yielded a book that is both beautiful and sure to be an enduring contribution to the ethnography and art history of shamanism. The visions and vanishing lifestyles of the ayahuasqueros of Amazons are presented with wonderful integrity and sensitivity."
-Terence McKenna, author of" The Invisible Landscape" (with Dennis McKenna) and "True Hallucinations"

Inside This Book (Learn More)
First Sentence
Research among tribal groups using ayahuasca and other psychoactives has shown that cultural traditions play an important role not only in interpreting and imprinting meaning upon visions but also in shaping the visionary experience. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding, 16 Aug 1999
By A Customer
If you wish a clear, objective overview of shamanic worldview, this book is outstanding. The introduction alone (which is all I have read so far) is worth a great deal. Without being dressed up in obscurities, there is much to learn here.

5.0 out of 5 stars the best ayahuasca artist, 26 Dec 2003
By E. Fernandes "e fern" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The best art of an ayahusca visionary artist. Pablo expresses the world of the ayahusca in a creative way and translates into paper the vast web of the hallucinatory brew.
