On the spiritual level, it is a textbook on how to become a Shaman.  It depicts the Shaman death, extraordinary situations, and other ways to become a Shaman.  Journeys to the upper and lower worlds, as well as other alternate realities, are described in detail.    Both spirit travel and healing techniques are demonstrated, described, and fit nicely into the story line.

Let the Shaman of the Mountain guide you to become more compassionate on a one level and more spiritual on another.
