Über diesen Titel

Born in West Africa in the early 1950s, Somé was kidnapped at age four by a French Jesuit missionary to be trained as a priest, for the next 15 years enduring the harsh regimen of a seminary where his native language and tribal traditions were systematically suppressed. At age 20 he escaped, but when he returned to his Dugara people in Upper Volta (now Burkina Faso) they rejected him as an outsider. To reconnect with his native culture, Somé underwent a month-long initiation into shamanism during which he reports that he journeyed to the underworld, became a bird, then a porcupine, and was buried alive.

truly mind opening. the recollection of his intense experiences filled me with wonder and joy about lifes potential. also a highly interesting and necessary perspective on the wisdoms and philosphies of village life and the dagara people in particular.

I can never unhear these truths
