The Art of Dreaming (3)
Taken as a whole, the books of Castaneda should be in a class by themselves with
regard to their relevance to the The Quantum Shaman. If you have time for no
other reading, these should be first priority. There are a couple of other books
by Castaneda, but it is The Quantum Shaman's feeling that the crux and the
backbone of don Juan's teachings are contained within the volumes listed above.
CROWLEY, ALEISTER (2)
Magic Without Tears
*Crowley's works are a bit difficult to follow at times, but if you're
approaching the journey from the angle of chaos magick, they're well worth the
effort.

them all. Read as much as you can.
LACARRIERE, JACQUES
The Gnostics (1)
*An excellent look at the process of gnosis. Get past the language, transcend
the religious overtones, and this is one of the best explorations of gnosis ever
written.
MINDELL, ARNOLD
The Shaman’s Body(1)
Quantum Mind (1)
Mindell has also written many other books relevant to quantum shamanism,
including books on lucid dreaming. His books are particularly good for those
seekers new to the path, or to any of us who need to occasionally be reminded of
what is possible, through perception and will.
Jed has at least 3 books. Read them all for an
enlightening look at the state of enlightenment.

plants and the evolution of human consciousness.

A look at other-realms and how concepts thought to be "myth" can take on a
reality all their own through the human will.
RUIZ, DON MIGUEL
The Four Agreements (1)
A condensed & concise series of four agreements by which many warriors live
their lives. A good starting place for new seekers, a good refresher course for
all concerned. Ruiz has also written many other books about Toltec wisdom.
RUMI
Many books available. Excellent for inspiration and the clarification of
abstract thought. Read all you can.
STRIEBER, WHITLEY
The Secret School (1)
The Key (1) (available only through Whitley's website:

Communion (3)
Transformation (3)
Breakthrough (3)
*Of all Strieber's books, I have found THE SECRET SCHOOL to be the most
enthralling for its treatment of what I refer to as "memories that never
happened" -- events in our lives which we remember with the same clarity as
linear-time memories, yet these events never actually occurred inside linear
time. "Memories that never happened" will eventually have a page all its own on
The Quantum Shaman as the site continues to develop.
