Immortal Jaguar is Hugh Fox's account of his experiences with the
inner worlds and ancient powers unleashed by his use of traditional
South American spiritual hallucinogenics. After consuming
psychoactive plants in Peru he is gripped by visionary experiences
and finds the dazzling magical world of the Immortals opening up, a
whirl of ancient knowledge pouring through his consciousness. On
his return to academic life in the US he finds that having a
shamanic gift which he is unable to switch off is something of a
dangerous liability. Part memoir, part archaeology, this fusion of
visions and ideas into fictional narrative is among the most
excitingly readable presentations of the spiritual underworld of
the Andes and its expression through sacred hallucinogens. The
vision extends outward across the ancient world through language
and legend, all leading to a voyage to the house of the Sun-King -
Tiawanaku in Bolivia. Fox, a major authority on the Pre-Columbian
Americas, and a true visionary to boot, makes a compelling case for
the connection of disparate myths and cultures around the world in
deepest antiquity.
