Thanks Egg That would do it!! What role has or does initiation play in the awakening process? Our life experiences do push us on but it seems to me so many people live bland lives that just keeps them in a ticktock existance.

Has anyone read the book "Of Water and the Spirit" about a wonderful shaman from Bakino Faso, a landlocks country in Africa. In it he describes the initiation that the teenage boys are but through to connect with the spiritual realm. Many indiginous people have an initiation tradition. In the west we seem to have none.
