Joan Halifax, Buddhist teacher, author, and abbot of Upaya Zen Monastery in Santa Fe, talks about initiation with African shaman, healer, and diviner, Malidoma Some. Malidoma suggests that people in the West suffer from "sickness of the soul." He joins Roshi Joan in a fascinating conversation about the ways we can heal this sickness, as well as the unexpressed grief in our culture. In this program, we discover the secrets of an African initiation and the power of Buddhist vows with two people who walk between the worlds of East and West, of Magic and Meditation. A DVD of this program with extra bonus material is available through: www.cemproductions.org CEM Productions, Industrial Center Bldg. #250, 480 Gate 5 Road, Sausalito, CA 94965 USA tel: 877-CEM-7222
