Critics Review
” Primal Awareness is a great book. Equal in effect to Carlos Castaneda’s writings, it challenges our thinking in a way that reveals the true magnificence of human potential.”
“Primal Awareness is a great book. Equal in effect to Carlos Castaneda’s writings, it challenges our thinking in a way that reveals the true magnificence of human potential.” * Daniel Hays, coauthor of My Old Man and the Sea *
“Although some articles have been written about what is happening to my people regarding the drugs, lumbering and violence, only Don Jacobs has captured the spiritual understandings that have allowed us to live in balance for thousands of years. As a recipient of the Goldman Environmental Award, as the Directorof the Sierra Madre Alliance and as a half-Raramuri Indian, I can say without reservation that Primal Awareness will help make the world a better place if enough people read it. I agree with Dan Millman’s review of the book when he said it is a ‘suspense story that embraces realms of psychology, anthropology and magic.” * Edwin Bustillos, recipient of the Goldman Environmental Award, has suffered 4 assasination attempts *
“A philosophical quest for the lost ark, filled with adventure. * Sam Keen, author of Fire in the Belly *
“Don Jacobs is a renaissance man who has written an adventure story that reflects his depth of experience as well as his heart.Primal Awareness is compelling reading with a profound impact. Both suspense story and spiritual quest, it embraces realms of psychology, anthropology, and magic. As I turned its pages, I was moved to laughter and tears. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the mysteries of the human mind and heart.” * Dan Millman, author of Way of the Peaceful Warrior, and Everyday Enlightenment *
“Don Jacobs has uncovered the roots of indigenous psychology that all people share and that, once found, can lead to harmonious living.” * Ed McGaa, Eagle Man, author of Mother Earth Spirituality *
“A fantastic tale of unbelievable magnitude.” * Lori Colomeda, Tribal College Journal, Summer 2000 *
