Product Description

Review
'Castaneda has become one of the godfathers of the New Age movement... He is addressing the central issues of our time.' LOS ANGELES TIMES'Carlos Castaneda is one of the most profound and influential thinkers of this century. His insights are paving the direction for the future evolution of human consciousness. We should all be deeply indebted to him.' DEEPAK CHOPRA'We are incredibly fortunate to have Carlos Castaneda's books... One can't exaggerate the significance of what he has done.' NEW YORK TIMES'It's impossible to view the world in quite the same way after reading him...If Castaneda is correct, there is another world, a sometimes beautiful and sometimes frightening world, right before our eyes at the moment- if only we could see.' CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Product Description
Carlos Castaneda was one of the most influential spiritual teachers of the 20th century. In this stunning new jacket edition of his bestselling book, he takes the reader on an amazing journey of the soul via the teachings of the great sorcerer don Juan and reveals that there are worlds existing within our own that can be visited through dreams. The Art of Dreaming is an extraordinary and exciting adventure of the psyche unlike any other, which takes the reader on an amazing journey of the soul via the teachings of the great sorcerer, don Juan. Carlos Castaneda reveals that, like the layers of an onion, there are worlds existing within our own that can be visited through dreams. Using powerful ancient techniques to alter his state of consciousness, Castaneda travels into new worlds and encounters remarkable but dangerous beings; he conjoins energy bodies with another dreamer in order to dream and explore together, and thus acquires new knowledge and understanding. Castaneda's compelling writing enables the reader to participate fully in his eye-opening and thrilling discoveries and explorations.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dreaming practices for those who relate to Castaneda's world, 11 Oct 2000
By A Customer
I came to this book from an interest in lucid dreaming (becoming aware that you are dreaming while you are dreaming) and am also a long time fan of Castaneda. The book gave me some specific techniques to use in my dreaming practice, which is what I wanted. The early chapters were slow to get going, but as usual by the end of a Castaneda book I had entered his world and felt closer to those worlds that seem to be just beyond my everyday experience. Some chapters were hard to take, describing dream experiences that I found incredible or I simply did not want to believe them. I hope they are metaphorical descriptions, but as with so much of Castaneda the joy is wondering whether his descriptions of shamanic practices are real or not.

If you are new to Castaneda, then I think there are better works, and I would personally recommend his first books. If you have read Castaneda before (and like him) and are interested in dreaming techniques then this book has good coverage of the area. If you just want to get into lucid dreaming I would recommend Dreaming Realities by John Overdurf and Julie Silverthorn as a much more explicit book of techniques to use.

5.0 out of 5 stars A dream in a dream, 13 Jan 2006
By Mr. Thomas Llewellyn (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Carlos Casteneda's books are entertaining and this is no exception. As we laugh at his exploits we begin to laugh at ourselves. There are huge and subtle insights in this book. A book that warns us about being trapped in the world of dreams. The practices suggested are worthy of investigation. The last chapters on the mysterious 'tenant' are truly spell binding. Highly reccomended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awsome!, 31 May 2009
Each of Castanedas' books are more awesome than the one proceeding. They are taking you on a journey. Each book takes you deeper into the whole essence of the magical/spiritual journey which Castenada was traveling, often going back over the same time period as covered in previous books but on a deeper level. like peeling away the layers of an onion. Castaneda is sometimes accused of having fabricated what he writes about, if this were true and he really was capable of making up such profound stories, containing such wisdom and spiritual awareness, then he would be of possibly greater genius than having experienced it, and his books equally worth reading. This book, for myself has been the best yet, but I thought that about all the others as I read them. (I recommend reading them all in the correct order to build up the full picture of what he's communicating). The Art of Dreaming, for the first time presents Castaneda as an awesome guy, experiencing things which even the great Don Yuan had not encountered. In the previous books he can come over as a bit stupid and slow to pick up on things, asking what seem dumb questions, although I think this may be his way of helping us to grasp the huge concepts he deals with. These books are too profound to really describe in a review, they have to be read. I would like to say everyone should read this and all of his books, but I believe there is a right time for everthing. Books don't come better than this. (in my opinion!)
