The Santiago Legacy
J. E. Williams is a doctor of Oriental and naturopathic medicine, and his shamanic training spans almost 40 years. In 1967, he lived a winter with the Siberian Eskimo people of St. Lawrence Island where he was given the name, Yupik, meaning “Eskimo,” or a true man. While in the Artic, in a series of visions, he realized that a new, deeply mystical, eco-spiritual path was emerging. Born from the indigenous traditions of North and South America, it emphasizes balanced emotions, ethical discipline, wholesome conduct, and thoughtful discernment. He was given the name El Nahautl Santiago in Mexico in 1994, where he spent decades among brujas and curanderas. In Peru, he is know as Don Santiago, and it is with this name that he presents the shamanic and wisdom teachings learned over a lifetime. After 28 years in California, he now lives in Sarasota, Florida, but spends much of his time in the Peruvian upper Amazon and the Andes among traditional indigenous shamans. |
