In the Oneness of Time is an inspiring true story that draws the imagination into its own magical source, where things become possible, and possibilities become things. It grips the reader like a Castaneda/Don Juan talefor real. Throughout history and in all cultures, authentic diviners have been connecting their communities with real things unavailable to the physical senses and surface mind. Water for wells, healings, on-target meanings for events, wisdom to guide actions, unusual insights of many kindsthe intuitive perception of diviners makes them available. Horden, a gifted contemporary diviner, masterfully unfolds this page-turner of how he discovered this mode of intuitive perception and was trained to develop and use it by a series of highly skilled teachersa spectrum of extraordinary individuals ranging from a sophisticated I Ching master to Tarahumara shamans in Mexico's Copper Canyonand a series of down-to-earth-life events and compelling "in-between world" experiences. William Horden is co-author of The Toltec I Ching and author of numerous other books on divination and spirituality.
William Douglas Horden has researched indigenous divinatory systems of ancient China and Mexico with passion and independence since 1969. He is steeped in the shamanic world view from living in the Copper Canyon of Mexico with the Tarahumara Indians and in numerous other indigenous communities over the past few decades. William was initially trained in the I Ching by Master Khigh Alx Dhiegh and has since developed a fresh new approach to the ancient art. He currently lives in Roseburg, Oregon and Coatepec, Mexico.
"It is rare to see such a lucid and appreciative summary of a life so well lived, and readers will be inspired not only by the tales Horden tells, but by his example of learning with an open mind and heart." -- Publishers Weekly (November) This warm-hearted, inspiring memoir/teaching by a modern Taoist I Ching master/Toltec shaman conveys the ecstasy and intricacies of crossing the unknown and exploring the other... Hordens provocative story unfolds in non-sequential time chapters with commentaries, allowing the reader to register the moving account in ones own consciousness, much like the experience of consulting the I Ching. A heartfelt sharing of ancient wisdom and insight." -- Stan Madson, co-founder, Bodhi Tree Bookstore
