Description: "Buddhist teacher and anthropologist Joan Halifax delves into "the fruitful darkness" - the shadow side of being, found in the root truths of Native religions, the fecundity of nature, and the stillness of meditation. In The Fruitful Darkness, a highly personal and insightful odyssey of the heart and mind, she encounters Tibetan Buddhist mediators, Mexican shamans, and Native American elders, among others. In rapt prose, she recounts her explorations - from Japanese Zen meditation to hallucinogenic plants, from the Dogon people of Mali to the Mayan rain forest." ISBN: 0-8021-4071-8.
