Honoring The Plant Nations: Recovery of Ancestral Knowledge in Sacred Scholarship (original) (raw)

The author explores the literature for dialogue regarding Indigenous Worldview, Shamanism, and the sacred plants (entheogens) in general, and within the fields of Consciousness Studies and Participatory Research in particular. Within the fields of Anthropology and Consciousness Studies, she discovers relevant discourse pertaining to the significance of 'worldview' within the quest for knowledge. She utilizes this perspective to enlarge the concept of 'participation' and identifies essential components of a more inclusive shamanic worldview that are not yet integrated into Participatory Research in particular, or Sacred Scholarship in general.
