It’s always great to be able to give an update on a previous article in Indie Shaman so it was wonderful to hear from Survival International that renowned Yanomami shaman, Davi Kopenawa, has won this year’s Right Livelihood Award, known as the “Alternative Nobel Prize.” Davi featured in an article about his book, The Falling Sky in Issue 39 of Indie Shaman earlier this year. He lives in his community, Watoriki (the Windy Mountain), practising shamanism and led his people’s 20-year campaign to protect their Amazonian territory. The award ceremony takes place on 4 December in Stockholm; the other winners of this year’s award are: Greta Thunberg, Aminatou Haidar and Guo Jianmei. There’s more information about this story on Indie Shaman’s blog at https://indieshaman.co.uk/features/ and you can learn more about the fantastic work of Survival International, the global movement for tribal peoples at https://www.survivalinternational.org/. At this time of year, with the changing of the season, thoughts do tend to turn to the land so I was happy to lead this edition with an article from Rob Wildwood in which Rob journeys through the British Isles not just physically but also spiritually in his book The Land of the Fae. This is followed by an extract from Davyd Farrell’s fascinating Wisdom Hub interview with travelling land shaman, Dr Patrick MacManaway. And with the festivals of Samhain and Winter Solstice/Christmas at this time of year thoughts turn to family, home and ancestors which is reflected in Gina Martin’s articleRemembering Our Way Home. This issue also brings not just one but two lucky draw competitions! Many thanks to Steve Andrews and Trevor Greenfield from Moon Books for the copy ofHerbs of a Southern Shaman. And it is an absolute pleasure to work with the Earth Pathways Co-operative again who have offered prizes of a 2020 Earth Pathways Diary and two Earth Pathways Calendars! I like to think that we at Indie Shaman share a common ethos with Earth Pathways and would like to end my ‘community letter’ with a couple of quotes, one from the ‘Welcome’ in their 2020 diary and the first from Davi Kopenawa; both of which resonated particularly with me as I hope they will with you also. “We, the peoples of the planet, need to protect our cultural heritage as Omame [the Creator] taught us – to live well, caring for our land so that future generations can continue to use it.” Davi Kopenawa “By creating a heart-led connection to each other and the Earth we become the Earth Restorers and Earth Protectors the Earth needs us to be, at this critical time in her history.” (Earth Pathways Diary) Many blessings on whatever you personally are doing, however small it may seem at this moment in time, to celebrate your heritage and protect the land where you live and the Earth as a whole. June 4 The Land of the Fae Merlin’s Quest Rob Wildwood Let me take you on a journey to the Otherworld! A magical journey that will take us deep into the sacred landscape of Britain. As we journey into this mysterious Otherworld we will encounter the magical beings that dwell there; the elves and the fairies, hobs and goblins, water nymphs and tree spirits. The events I am about to relate to you actually happened. Some of them occurred in our physical reality, while others occurred only in the world of spirit. These came to me as visions and direct experiences as I journeyed into the sacred landscape of Britain and tuned into the magical places that lie hidden within the landscape. The visions were revealed to me as the veil that separates our world from the Otherworld of the Fae was parted, allowing me to peer, for a brief moment, into their magical world. To achieve these altered states I employed shamanic techniques including drumming and deep breathing but there were no drugs involved, only a clearing of the mind, a deep state of meditation and an openness to the spirits of each place. So join the journey and follow me now, into The Land of the Fae! 5 It was while sitting on the rocks by Merlin’s cave in Tintagel Haven, Cornwall, waiting for the tide to go out, that I was initiated into Merlin’s magic circle. My new friends Alphedia and Auraengus were there, chatting away with some of the other folks who had followed us down to the shore. I had met them only a few days before, at 3 Wishes Faery Festival on Bodmin Moor where Alphedia had been giving a talk about the fairies and had been channelling the nature god Pan. They had come here to Tintagel to perform a ritual in Merlin’s cave, but right now the tide was in and so the cave was made inaccessible by the waves. As I listened to the crashing of the waves on the shore I closed my eyes and felt myself being transported to an Otherworldly realm… I could see myself walking through a dark forest of twisted trees and gnarled roots that seemed to go on forever; but soon I saw a golden light ahead that seemed to be coming from a huge clearing like an arena. I stepped forward into the forest clearing and could see a golden yellow band of light ahead of me, encircling the entire arena like a shimmering golden ring. I stepped into the band of golden light and saw my world turn yellow and hazy before my eyes, and as I stepped out of the other side I was greeted by the most astonishing sight that I had ever seen! A huge baying crowd of the most fantastical magical creatures were gathered there in a mighty host, forming a deep crowd around a clear central area as if awaiting the start of some great performance.

  • Monofins for Freediving
    Monofins for Freediving We have been intermittently following the debate concerning the use of the monofin in freediving and would like to share some of our findings. Two years ago we put together the first experimental monofin/freedive clinic where we assembled some unique elements. We put together the leading trainers in monofin swimming, namely the Russian coaches from Tomsk university, who train both the Russian national team and their chief rivals, the Chinese, the leading specialist monofin manufacturer belonging to the same school and a group of freedivers which represented the best cross-section, from the very top of freediving competition to the very novice. This same group also represented advanced freedivers who already had experience with the monofin, advanced freedivers who had never used a monofin and a novice freediver with no experience of the monofin. Although the number of freedivers involved was small we feel that with a larger group the conclusions would have been much the same. The objectives were to find (i) What style and why? (ii) What rhythm and amplitude of movement? (iii) What kind of monofin and what stiffness of blade and if this was individual what the relevant criteria for monofin choice should be? (iv) What compromises and adaptations had to be made to suit the specific needs of the freediver? (v) What was the best training method for the monofin freediver. What style and why? We had heard a lot of talk concerning adaptations of the ‘classic ’style that freedivers should adopt. I know from personal acquaintance that some of the people recommending various adaptations were not capable of demonstrating a good classic style hence their recommendations were from lack of ability in the monofin and hence lack of choice through limited ability.

Submitted in fulfilment of requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Education College of Social Sciences University of Glasgow October 2016 2 Abstract In today’s increasingly digitised world, we communicate both locally and globally across different languages, modes and media. Since the New London Group’s (1996) seminal ‘Pedagogy of Multiliteracies’ some twenty years ago, there have been further significant developments in the way we communicate, with the 21st century considered ‘the great age of translation’ (Bassnett 2014:1). Yet despite the increasing number of multilingual, multimodal texts we encounter, classrooms continue to teach traditional, monolingual print- based models of literacy.

    THE SPRATLY ISLANDS DISPUTE: DECISION UNITS AND DOMESTIC POLITICS CHRISTOPHER CHUNG A thesis submitted to the University of New South Wales in fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2004 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, nor material which to a substantial extent has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma at UNSW or any other educational institution, except where due acknowledgement is made in the thesis. Any contribution made to the research by colleagues, with whom I have worked at UNSW or elsewhere, during my candidature, is fully acknowledged. I also declare that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work, except to the extent that assistance from others in the project’s design and conception or in style, presentation and linguistic expression is acknowledged. Christopher Chung i ABSTRACT This thesis presents a cross-national, cross-regime examination of foreign policy decision-making in the Spratly Islands dispute, focusing on China, Malaysia and the Philippines. It argues that how and why these countries have acted in particular ways towards the dispute relates to the relationship among foreign policy decision-making, government behaviour and domestic politics. The theoretical foundation of the study is foreign policy analysis. It applies the decision units approach advanced by Margaret and Charles Hermann and Joe Hagan to investigate who made foreign policy decisions on the Spratly Islands dispute in the three countries during the period 1991-2002, and how this influenced government behaviour.
