Bat Dreams Intro and Chapter One: On Fathers and Knowing When to Stop

Bat Dreams Intro and Chapter One: On Fathers and Knowing When to Stop

The beginning of my second book, Bat Dreams. The first was Gateway Mexico. Two more are in progress in the Nighttime Daydreams quadrilogy. In this episode, I describe the quadrilogy and summarize Gateway Mexico, then launch into the story. It's October 1994 and I've gone to Ecuador for a second time to meet up with my teacher and study ayahuasca shamanism with him. Chapter One describes the first ceremony and flashes back to memories of father-figures in my life.  The rainbow serpent, the spirit of the ayahuasca vine, makes an appearance in a vision.

Beyond Wahuya

The craziest thing I've ever done: gone out into the jungle to drink ayahuasca alone for a few days, in search of jaguars and God.
