Book excerpt: Thousands of years ago, the root of the Ghost Dance ritual radiated out from the Mountains of the Clouds where the ancient Toltec god, the Plumed Serpent, Quetzalcoatl, first danced with the Lord of the Dead, Mictlantecuhtli to create the civilizations of the Americas. As a gift to his children, the Plumed Serpent gave the people the Prince of Plants: Desheto. The Mazatecan Indians of Oaxaca still believe that plant knowledge can be communicated through Desheto's pre-Colombian mushroom ritual. Each year when the rains came the Prince of Plants would continue to share this hidden history of the Americas with his scribe Ani. To deepen Ani's knowledge, the Prince of Plants sent his scribe on a journey through the most remote tribes of the Americas to find the last remnants of the ancient Ghost Dance ritual.
