I am crazy about this book, as this book almost made me crazy (in a good sense).
It tells the story of one of the most famous holocaust survivors and writers and how the nightmares from the concentration camp, known as Auschwitz, haunted this survivor. He suffered for years until he was treated with LSD. His mind was changed for the better. He stopped dreaming about the suffering he had experienced, and this was done by changing his consciousness.
It shows how much our mind is open to improvements and what is the real power and benefit of practicing shamanism…
From Ran's list on altered states of consciousness and shamanism.
