Publisher's Notes
From the legendary bestselling New Age master comes a startlingly original combination of spirituality and self-help. In "Magical Passes", Carlos Castaneda reveals a system of body movements and positions that are the key to "dreaming" and journeying to new levels of perception...."Tensegrity" is Carlos Castaneda's term for the specialized movements--magical passes--that were discovered and developed by Mexican shamans in ancient times. Shrouded in secrecy, they are the pathway to shamanistic dreaming and "seeing." In this unprecedented book, Castaneda unveils the highly specific positions and movements of the body necessary to spiritual navigation, exercises he learned from his master, Don Juan Matus. Mastering them, readers will experience an unequaled sense of physical vitality, youth, and mental power, and be able to journey on their own to other realms of perception.

Don Juan and the Art of Sexual Energy
by Merilyn Tunneshende
Readers of Carlos Casteneda have often complained that his work in ancient Meso-american shamanism never covered sexual practices beyond celibacy. With his death in 1998 it seemed that these practices might never be revealed, but fortunately Merilyn Tunneshende has stepped in. Set against the backdrop of the golden deserts of Sonora, Mexico, DON JUAN & THE ART OF SEXUAL ENERGY recounts Tunneshende's initiation into the ancient sexual energy practices of the Toltec-Mayan tradition. Under the tutelage of don Juan Matus, Chon Yakil (whom Castenada referred to as Don Genaro), and dona Celestina de la Soledad, she learns to reclaim her feminine power and balance the masculine and feminine forces within herself. At the heart of the book is the mythical Rainbow Serpent: the phallic energy within women, the creative power within men. Each chapter focuses on a particular technique for awakening the serpent and connecting with its energy. Twenty-two sequential practices are covered, providing a powerful program for serious spiritual transformation.

Magical Passes: The Practical Wisdom of the Shamans of Ancient Mexico
Carlos Castaneda
HarperCollins. Like New. From Library Journal Cult author Castaneda has written nine books (e.g., The Teachings of Don Juan, LJ 3/1/69) chronicling the life and practices of Yaqui sorcerer Don Juan Matus. While these books talk about the magical and shamanistic practices of Don Juan and his lineages, this new book begins with Don Juan chiding Castaneda about his physical well-being (or lack of it) and then teaching Castaneda the physical movements practice. These magical movements are called "tensegrity"?a combination of the tension of contracting and relaxing with the integrity of the body moving in one complete unit. The bulk of the book is a detailed step-by-step description and photographs of the movements, which can be done following the book but require a concentration that cuts out extraneous thought. Recommended for collections where Castaneda's other books are popular and for collections on meditation and movement.?Gail Wood, SUNY at Cortland Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc. Los Angeles Times "Castaneda has become one of the godfathers of the New Age movement...He is addressing the central issues of our time." --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
