The author’s association with Carlos Castaneda transformed his life. The story follows the journey of a modern-day shaman’s apprentice over thirty years and across the globe, from hedonistic beginnings towards surrender and awakening, from a focus on magic and power to the emergence of love and compassion. The central metaphor of this memoir is the “art of navigation,” which is living life as a magical treasure hunt — playfully, intuitively, fluidly and fully aware in the Now.
