As Alice in Wonderland discovered, cave entrances, tunnels, spirals
and mirrors can transport people to strange worlds where anything
is possible. Portals investigates how we move beyond the conscious
and physical world using our senses, into other realities of the
spiritual and the divine. Portals looks at the techniques used to
alter consciousness practised by shamans, monks and other religious
specialists. These include the use of drugs, as well as drumming,
chanting and meditation. The book provides a new,
anthropologically-grounded perspective on the wide-ranging
questions about the realities of human consciousness and mystical,
spiritual and religious experience.
