552.0. "Anyone read Lynn V. Andrews?" by MEMV03::BULLOCK (Flamenco--NOT flamingo!!) Wed Nov 04 1987 18:00

    Hi folks--
    
    Has anyone read any of Lynn V. Andrews books ("Medicine Woman",
    "Star Woman", etc.)?  I was in AZ last week, and got reading these
    books--briefly, she relates her experiences in self-growth with
    the help of two Indian medicine women.  (The books are wonderful--there
    are at least two more in the series--"Jaguar Woman" and "Flight
    of the Seventh Moon[I think]")
    
    After reading these books, I can't help but notice similarities
    between these, the Bible, some books on crystals and crystal healing,
    Dan Millman's "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior", etc.
    
    Is it me, or is everyone saying basically the same thing?  From
    my reading, it seems like there are some universal basics like
    everything having a spirit;  there are natural forces that we can
    use and benefit from if we choose to learn;  and so on.  
    
    I'd like to hear from fellow seekers on this. 
    
    Jane

	Yes, I have read all 4 books mentioned, and the newest one "Crystal Woman" has just come out. I enjoyed all of them very much. I think I mentioned in another note awhile back that, as I was getting involved in all of this "stuff", the thing that suprised and delighted me (and in some ways affirmed me) was that the same things were being said, but maybe in slightly different ways. So perhaps it is true that all paths lead to the same place! Carole

	Lynn Andrews was at Skylight Books (Cambridge, Mass) a few weeks back signing copies of her latest book ...
552.3	She's doing it again!!	GNUVAX::LIBRARIAN	just guessing	`Wed Nov 04 1987 18:37`	7
	Yeah, it's like when you read a note, and it stirs up a response in your mind, and then you read the next reply and Carole has already said it! Practically word for word! Lance
552.4	Certainly seems that way to me	CSC32::KACHELMYER	David L. Kachelmyer, VMS-SPACE	`Thu Nov 05 1987 00:21`	10
	I agree with Carole in .1; from my exposure to the subject, all of the things I've seen appear to be different ways of expressing the same basic concept. Different twists on the same plot, if you will. Dave P.S. I'm waiting for Crystal Woman to come out in softcover. :-)
552.5		VINO::EVANS		`Fri Nov 06 1987 16:07`	11
	I love these books! Can't read 'em too close together, tho.... I think my circuits get overloaded. YEs, I notice a lot of writing, from seemingly disjoint, far-apart places/ disciplines comes together (for me) surprisingly. Channeled works, shamanistic things, psychological stuff...on and on. Sometimes I think it's creepy, bu mostly I think it makes sense. --DE
