{"product_id":"zulu-shaman","title":"Zulu Shaman","description":"In this rare window into Zulu mysticism Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa breaks the bonds of traditional silence to share his personal experiences as a sangoma--a Zulu shaman. Set against the backdrop of post-colonial South Africa ZULU SHAMAN relays the first-person accounts of an African healer and reveals the cosmology of the Zulu.   Mutwa begins with the compelling story of his personal journey as an English-trained Christian schoolteacher who receives a calling to follow in his grandfather's footsteps as a shaman and keeper of folklore. He then tells the stories of his ancestors including creation myths; how evil came to the world; the adventures of the trickster god Kintu; and Zulu relations with the fiery visitors whom he likens to extraterrestrial.     In an attempt to preserve the knowledge of his ancestors and encourage his vision of a world united in peace and harmony Mutwa also shares previously guarded secrets of Zulu healing and spiritual practices: including the curing power of the sangoma and the psychic powers of his people.     Previously published by Station Hill.\n\n. Includes 14 Zulu myths as told by a traditional Zulu story keeper\n\n. Reveals Zulu shamanic practices, including healing techniques, dreamwork, oracles, prophecy, and interactions with star beings","brand":"Inner Traditions Bear and Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54255003566424,"sku":"9780892811298","price":19.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780892811298_1ba79ce3-a845-4de4-af9f-8505fa55422c.jpg?v=1779941754","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/zulu-shaman","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
