About this product
Product Information
Visionary plants have long served indigenous peoples and their shamans as enhancers of perception, thinking, and healing. Twenty-three leading ethnobotanists, anthropologists, medical researchers, and cultural and religious figures explore the relevance of plant-induced visions to humanity's environmental crisis. They reveal how psychoactive plants allow nature's "voice" to speak to humans and what this communication means for our future.

& " This book, which casts a clear light on visionary plants and their proper use, is recommended for those interested in the growing awareness of intelligence within the natural kingdom.& ", Twenty-three leading ethnobotanists, anthropologists, medical researchers and cultural and religious figures such as Terence McKenna, Andrew Weil, Wade Davis, Michael Polan, Alex Grey, Jeremy Narby, Katsi Cook, John Mohawk, and Kat Harrison, among others, present their understandings of the nature of teacher plants and their significant connection to humans. What they reveal is that these plants may help us access profound intelligence in nature - the mind of nature - that we must learn to understand in order to survive our ecologically destructive way of life., & " . . . these voices offer necessary clues about how the states of mind that sacred plants engender can be conscientiously integrated into our selves and society.& ", Humans have long considered psychoactive plants as teachers. This book seeks to inform Westerners about these powerful plants and about the shamans who know how to use them. Their words are clear and simple and often based on personal experience. The result is an accessible book packed with knowledge., I commend this volume as a thought-provoking examination of the thesis that our planet's well-being could depend upon our respectful, creative use of visionary plants. Based on the evidence that these plants have long served indigenous shamans as effective methods of enhancing intuitive perceptions, engendering healing powers, and stimulating creative thinking, this book also makes a timely case for decriminalizing their responsible use., This book, which casts a clear light on visionary plants and their proper use, is recommended for those interested in the growing awareness of intelligence within the natural kingdom., ." . . these voices offer necessary clues about how the states of mind that sacred plants engender can be conscientiously integrated into our selves and society.", . . . a valuable tool in understanding the historical use, and misuse, of hallucinogenic plants. . . . offers a wealth of information that is fascinating and made me want to explore deeper., Twenty-three leading ethnobotanists, anthropologists, medical researchers and cultural and religious figures such as Terence McKenna, Andrew Weil, Wade Davis, Michael Polan, Alex Grey, Jeremy Narby, Katsi Cook, John Mohawk, and Kat Harrison, among others, present their understandings of the nature of teacher plants and their significant connection to humans. What they reveal is that these plants may help us access profound intelligence in nature the mind of nature that we must learn to understand in order to survive our ecologically destructive way of life., The uniquely knowledgeable and inspiring voices in this book provide an insightful multidisciplinary context for understanding the once and future history of human relationships with sacred plants.
