In this remarkable work, Dr. Wesselman reveals what it means to be a mystic and a medicine man in an age of high technology and super science. His spiritual quest continues to unfold, illuminating the emergence of a modern Western shamanism, the phenomenon of spirit possession, the conveyance of the souls of the dead, and the true nature of the human spirit. His connections with fellow mystic Nainoa give us an intimate look into kahuna spiritual wisdom, and their amazing visionary voyages finally bring them face-to-face with each other and with the mysterious Source of all Existence.
This extraordinary book, written by a scientist, also gives us an unprecedented glimpse into the origin and destiny of our species. It is a true hero's journey, revealing who and what we may all become when we accept the call to adventure, experience authentic initiation, and return from our quest as world redeemers.
