If you could sum up The Teachings of Don Juan in three words, what would they be?

The world is a dark and frightening place that's out to get you unless you have a powerful ally or access to magic powers.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

Didn't make it to the ending.

If you could give The Teachings of Don Juan a new subtitle, what would it be?

For shamanic practitioners

Any additional comments?

I can't quite blame it on the book, to be honest. Rather it was a case of misplaced expectations on my part. For some reason I expected it to be a story of an inspiring spiritual journey, self discovery and rising consciousness. Instead it was a very detailed and meticulously transcribed personal encounter with shamanic culture and rituals. I found the narrator talented and artistic, who used his quite voice skillfully to enhance the drama of the story. Again, you may find the book fascinating if you are interested in the shamanic culture. I am not, so I never made it to the end, although I found it amusing at times but not much more.

I understand that you have to be in a certain frame of mind and a certain level of awareness to truly appreciate this book. I also understand that not everyone will resonate with what the book is teaching, however it has less to do with the teaching and more to do with the person. I read (or listened to) most of Abraham-Hicks books and I feel that this one is the most powerful one of all. I had tears in my eyes on more than one occasion while listening to it and it felt like an intense vibe that was streaming right through me at that moment and resonating with me on some very basic yet fundamental level making me feel very thankful for this wonderful experience. Truly amazing!

Entertaining and surprisingly deep

Despite the enticingly mysterious title that apparently was thoroughly designed with the idea to attract as many hormone-driven adolescent readers as possible the book far exceeded my expectations. If you leave behind the entire mysterious veil of secrecy and the social appeal of the notion of manipulating women into a relationship (or, in many cases, into bed) Neil Strauss, in my opinion, did an amazingly good job! The book is very entertaining, honest and certainly has spiritual depth to it. It has a soul and charisma and reaches far beyond your usual "Getting Laid for Dummies" guide that are dime a dozen these days. Respect!
