Shimmering...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is a beautiful book that somehow lifted me to a different perspective. The whole time I was reading it, I felt as if the air around me shimmered with diffuse light. It is interesting to read about life in Joseph Rael's culture, fascinating to learn about the perspective of different Native American languages, hopeful to learn of Joseph's dream and continuing work for all of us, and transfixing to experience the effect his writing had upon my heart. I recommend this book for all who are not afraid to expand their view of life and their world.
A Treasure

Joseph Rael is one of the most interesting people you'll read about. This is basically his life story, and how he acquired the teachings to complement his natural gifts. The discussion of the Tiwa language is brilliant. Be one of the fortunate to read about this amazing man.
A Must Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This book is not a physics text. It is the highest level work on Native American religion I have ever seen. It would also be of interest to linguists as it presents words from the Tiwa language which uses verbs and not nouns. But the interesting part is the actual experiences of a man who is a healer and ceremonial dancer and peace worker. It is well written amd presented in a personal style. The book is much better than this review.
Physics of String Theory Owes Debt to Pueblo Philosophy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
The vision of this book is remarkable especially when viewed in the light of string theory. So much of the philosophy of the Pueblo people from whom Joseph Rael sprang seems to be confirmed by modern physics. A must read for the serious seeker.
