America before columbus, based on the oral history of 33 tribes by Ehanamani (Dr. A. C. Ross)
Fascinating compilation of Lakota beliefs, history and metaphysics
Ehanamani (Dr. A.C. Ross) grew up on reservations, attended a Christian high school and joined the military. While serving overseas he was embarrassed that a German knew more about his culture than he did, so he decided to learn more. He asked himself, “Why do we do certain things or believe certain stories? There must be a reason behind our traditional beliefs.” This book summarizes the findings of his research into Native American beliefs arrived at through a multitude of synchronistic events.
Ehanamani discusses Native American beliefs and ceremonies, Jungian psychology, energy, chakras, metaphysics, reincarnation, Edgar Cayce, Christianity, physics, spirituality and other esoteric topics, deftly tying them together into a holistic worldview.

Several chapters detail cultural, religious, and ceremonial similarities between the Native Americans on the North American continent and neighboring continents, which he believes confirms the Native American belief in islands called Mu (in the Pacific Ocean) and Atlantis (in the Atlantic) from which these peoples emigrated.
The message I got, which was perfectly timed, was how important it is for me to participate in more right-brained activities to find balance and improve my connection with That Which Gives Life.
This is an easy book to read, written in a conversational style of a friend just sharing what he’s learned over the years. I really enjoyed this book, and it will stay in my library.
