Telluride: The Sacred Valley

Within the heart of the San Juan Mountains of Southwestern Colorado, the author unveils an intimate chronicle of the evolution of a spiritual journey. Spanning several decades, the story offers a richly descriptive window into the conflicts and triumphs of a modern truthseeker. Returning to his childhood mountain paradise, the author begins to experience a variety of shamanistic initiations in which he rather dramatically discovers and remembers an ancient spiritual heritage. This revelation pries open a new realm of possibilities and contains some profound implications regarding both our past and future. As a devotee of both traditional and esoteric forms of religious practice, Dr. Hunter is a well-qualified commentator and experienced participant in the quest for things of a spiritual nature. His training in psychology and his life as a typical householder provide a particularly unique perspective from the cauldron of modern American mysticism.
