Some mestizos have migrated to Amazon towns and cities, such as Iquitos and Pucallpa; most remain in small villages. They have retained features of a folk Catholicism and traditional Hispanic medicine, and have incorporated much of the religious tradition of the Amazon, especially its shamanism, sorcery, healing, and the use of potent plant hallucinogens, including ayahuasca. Singing to the Plants sets forth just what this shamanism is about - what happens at an ayahuasca healing ceremony, how the apprentice shaman forms a spiritual relationship with the healing plant spirits, how sorcerers inflict the harm that the shaman heals, and the ways that plants are used in healing, love magic, and sorcery"--Jacket. 500 $a "First paperbound printing, 2010"--T.p. verso. 650 0 $a Shamanism $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Healing $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Human-plant relationships $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Plants $z Maynas Region $z Maynas Region $x Religious aspects. 650 0 $a Ayahuasca ceremony $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Ethnobotany $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 651 0 $a Maynas Region (Peru) $x Religious life and customs. 651 0 $a Maynas Region (Peru) $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Shamanism. 650 0 $a Medicinal plants. 650 0 $a Botany, Medical. 650 0 $a Ethnobotany. 650 12 $a Shamanism 650 22 $a Plants, Medicinal 650 22 $a Ethnobotany 651 2 $a Peru 650 6 $a Chamanisme. 650 6 $a Plantes meÌdicinales. 650 6 $a Ethnobotanique. 650 7 $a shamanism. $2 aat 650 7 $a Medicinal plants. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01014866 650 7 $a Botany, Medical. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00836961 650 7 $a Ayahuasca ceremony. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00824520 650 7 $a Ethnobotany. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00916074 650 7 $a Healing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00952704 650 7 $a Human-plant relationships. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963515 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815 650 7 $a Plants $x Religious aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01066080 650 7 $a Shamanism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01115159 651 7 $a Peru $z Maynas Region. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01348993 650 7 $a Ethnomedizin $2 gnd 650 7 $a Schamanismus $2 gnd 650 7 $a Ayahuasca $2 gnd 650 7 $a Mestizen $2 gnd 651 7 $a Peru $z Nordost $2 gnd 651 7 $a Amazonas-Gebiet $z West $2 gnd 650 7 $a Etnobotanik $z AmazonomraÌdet. $2 sao 650 7 $a Schamanism $z AmazonomraÌdet. $2 sao 650 0 $a Shamanism $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Human-plant relationships $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Plants $z Maynas Region $z Maynas Region $x Religious aspects. 650 0 $a Ayahuasca ceremony $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 650 0 $a Ethnobotany $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 651 0 $a Maynas Region (Peru) $x Religious life and customs. 651 0 $a Maynas Region (Peru) $x Social life and customs. 650 0 $a Healing $z Maynas Region. $z Maynas Region. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Beyer, Stephan V., 1943- $t Singing to the plants. $d Albuquerque : University of New Mexico Press, 2009 $w (OCoLC)747305628 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718085714.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7807A2D0214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
