The author of seven books which together have exerted the profoundest and most far-reaching influence, he speaks straight to the heart and has transformed many people's understanding not just of the past but of who they are. He has worked very closely not only with Native American elders and western spiritual teachers but also with leading figures in the study of classics and anthropology, philosophy and religious studies, the practice and history of healing -- as well as with people who simply are aware of the need to wake up to a reality greater than the one we are used to. The recipient of numerous academic awards, he holds honorary professorships or fellowships at universities in Canada, the United Kingdom and United States.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Catafalque Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45515141513331,"sku":"9781999638481","price":60.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/0_c1ca0d17-74aa-4ca9-b98b-3935347bee12.jpg?v=1789688711","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/in-the-dark-places-of-wisdom","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
