My own soul journey began when I read somewhere that in certain indigenous societies a prerequisite to becoming a shaman, was to have cured oneself of epilepsy. All of a sudden my own epilepsy had taken on a positive spin that a few years later resulted in my walking away from the dis-ease altogether, and turned my life focus into a return to the Garden, even though at the time it was simply a vow to achieve some form of peace of mind. The actual Garden connection being the result of an urge to return to the beginnings of Christianity, to discover the only sin in the Genesis version came in the form of a misappropriated story line.
