Journey To Ixtlan by Carlos Castaneda

The Lessons of Don Juan

A skeptical anthropology student apprentices to a Yaqui sorcerer and is pushed to dismantle ordinary perception through practices like erasing personal history, abandoning self-importance, controlled folly, and “stopping the world.” Guided to treat death as an adviser and to hunt for power, he shifts from detached observer to seeker of direct knowledge, realizing that the home he longs for is a metaphorical destination one can never truly return to.
