Publisher Comments:

Millions of readers worldwide have treasured the visionary brilliance of Carlos Castaneda, who first explore the world of the Yaqui Indian sorcerer in The Teachings of don Juan. Now, at last, don Juan returns in The Power of Silence — wise, infuriating, capable or working miracles and playing practical jokes, but always seeking the wisdom of the warrior.

The Power of Silence is Castaneda's most astonishing book to date — a brilliant flash of knowledge that illuminates the far reaches of the human mind. Through don Juan's mesmerizing stories, the true meaning of sorcery and magic is finally revealed. Honed in the desert of Sonora, the visions of don Juan give us the vital secrets of belief and self-realization that are transcendental and valid for us all. It is Castaneda's unique genius to show us that all wisdom, strength, and power lie within ourselves — unleashed with marvelous energy and imaginative force in the teachings of don Juan — and in the writings of his famous pupil, Carlos Castaneda

Synopsis:

From the author of The Teachings of don Juan. The legendary Yaqui Indian sorcerer don Juan returns, and through his mesmerizing stories readers learn the vital secrets of belief and self-realization that are transcendental and valid for us all--that wisdom, strength and power lie within ourselves.
