This volume offers a stimulating, multidisciplinary set of essays by noted Native and non-Native scholars that explore the problems and prospects of understanding and writing about Native American spirituality in the twenty-first century. Considerable attention is given to the appropriateness and value of different interpretive paradigms for Native religion, including both traditional religion and Native Christianity. The book also investigates the ethics of religious representation, issues of authenticity, the commodification of spirituality, and pedagogical practices. Of special interest is the role of dialogue in expressing and understanding Native American religious beliefs and practices. A final set of essays explores the power of and reactions to Native spirituality from a long-term, historical perspective.

Mails was invited to attend and record in detail the Sioux Sun Dances at Rosebud and Pine Ridge. This was a singular honor no white man has been accorded before or since. The result is this groundbreaking work, illustrated with rare photographs and stunning four-color paintings.

Writing in an entertaining, autobiographical style, Kathlyn Hinesley combines research in anthropology, history and science with personal psychic experience and metaphysical theory. She tackles questions related to: life after death, spirit communication, shamanism, alien visitations, out-of-body travel, time travel, sacred sites, and the nature of reality of itself. She enlightens the reader by showing how many of these topics are related and why. Welcome to Infinity presents us with an intriguing view of the universe: one that is home to a variety of otherworldly beings existing at different frequencies of vibration. Ms. Hinesley explores ancient and modern techniques for communicating and collaborating with these beings, and traveling to their realms. She describes the importance placed on human/spirit collaboration by ancient and native peoples, who viewed such contact as critical to the maintenance of harmony on earth. The author argues for a return to our roots: for a future in which humans and otherworldly beings work together for the good of the universe. "Kathlyn Hinesley deciphers our interactions with the higher vibrations of our ecosystem. This is the hard science of the future." -Rick Ramsey, Kozmic Engine
