In The Art of Navigation Felix Wolf recounts the adventure of his own life, and how his association with Carlos Castaneda transformed him - from a first encounter in 1980 to his apprenticeship with Castaneda in the 1990s, up to the present, more than a decade after Castaneda's death. Wolf's story follows his journey over thirty years and across the globe, from hedonistic beginnings towards surrender and awakening, from a focus on magic and power to the emergence of love and compassion. The central theme of this memoir is the art of navigation, which entails living life in the spirit of a magical treasure hunt - playful, intuitive, fluid, and fully aware in the Now.For readers interested in practicing this art for themselves, Wolf summarizes the how-to of navigating life.
