FROM: Carlos Castañeda’s book The Fire From Within
Carlos Castañeda was a Peruvian-American author. Starting with The Teachings of Don Juan in 1968, Castaneda wrote a series of books that purport to describe training in shamanism that he received under the tutelage of a supposed Yaqui “Man of Knowledge” named don Juan Matus. He wrote a total of 15 books. His works helped define the 1960’s and usher in the New Age movement.
