P. 102: (describing people in an airport) "it appeared as if they could have been picked up and put down anywhere on the planet, or any other planet for that matter, without severing any ties." It's not exactly what the author means, but being tied to a place in a transient world is an interesting experience. Its especially an interesting experience when the place you've committed to is a college town, the epitome of transience. There are sacrifices when committing to a place--things like choosing less than ideal work, less than ideal housing--but the rewards are endless when it's a place that "speaks" to you. There are some parallels to marriage, except that in marriage structural forces encourage your relationship. Choosing "marriage" to a place (in a college town) receives no societal support. In fact, it is actively discouraged.

one of the most boring books I've red lately...

Avevo grandi aspettative e invece ho trovato questo libro un po’ noioso.
Ho avuto difficoltà a visualizzare ciò che stavo leggendo e di conseguenza perdevo il filo, non mi appassionavo.

“Initiation” is a memoir of Elizabeth Jenkins’ spiritual adventures in the Andes. As Elizabeth grows and learns more about the Inka / Q’ero traditions and mystical practices, she imparts gold nuggets about spiritual growth. I found her personal story to be a fascinating adventure. I recommend it to anyone interested in Shamanism, Incas, Q’ero, mystical Peru, Machu Picchu, ancient wisdom of the Andean Path, esoteric principles or just great first-hand accounts of adventure.

A friend loaned me this book because of my interest in spiritual journeys, particularly those involving the Inca. It was a riveting tour of the shamanistic initiation process, overlapping on many of the practices I'd uncovered in my research (without benefit of actually experiencing it). I took issue with the earlier depiction of the Apu, but it was explained later.

Det er en bok som har fått meg til å tenke på hvordan man selv utøver noen form for tro. Man tenker over de viktige tingene i livet med litt andre briller.. Så er det jo noen fantastiske skildringer av området rundt Cuzco i Peru!
