"Like a curious, new and quite unexpected expression of ever creative Nature, 'Of Water and the Spirit' is strange and wonderful. Malidoma...has kept faith with the ancestors and with his own heart." Publisher's noteOne of the most astonishing and intimate accounts of spiritual transformation ever written, this is the true story of an African's shaman's initiation--a remarkable sharing of living African traditions, offered with compassion for those struggling with our contemporary crisis of spirit. "Of Water and the Spirit" is a remarkable sharing of living African traditions, offered with compassion for those struggling with our contemporary crisis of the spirit. AnnotationThis is a portrait of an African shaman who was kidnapped by Christian missionaries as a child and his subsequent story of escape and self-realization. Author Malidoma Some (a shaman who was later educated in Europe and America) manages to elude his captors and walk back to his family's tribe 100 miles away. From there, Some describes his extraordinary spiritual visions when he undergoes physically challenging shamanistic rituals that last well over a month. This tale of finding a place again within his ancestors' heritage results in an adventurous coming-of-age.
