Tetralogy of a Shaman is an anthology tracing the arc in the life of a shaman- right through from initiation, to philosophy, embodiment, and the psychology of the transformation.
The anthology is narrated through a singular and unlikely lens, that of a medical doctor by training and a shaman by calling. The reluctant cartographer of the unseen, is tasked with mapping the liminal terrain, but without the goddess Hecate to hold the torch, like she did with Demeter in the search for Persephone. So, a lot of the heavy lifting is done through examining lived experience, and direct transmission from the spiritual realms.
A semi-biographical body of work.
It is the culmination of over forty years of life filled with inflated sense of self, stubbornness, self-assurance, pride, debauchery, and shortsightedness (both literal and metaphorical).
It marks the beginning of another calling, to heal broken hearts, and broken relationships.
All punctuated by a near-death experience in between.
Ultimately, a redemption arc.

As you entered this realm you went through complete amnesia, its only right that you do justice to the experience, but undergoing an epic hero's journey to re-member.
