In the same way, modern philosophers and religious leaders sometimes use the imaginary philosophies of imaginary Indians to form a basis for their own profound and spiritual systems of thought.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Book of Imaginary Indians\u003c\/i\u003e examines several such philosophies, focusing especially on Joseph Smith's \u003ci\u003eBook of Mormon\u003c\/i\u003e and Hyemeyohsts Storm's \u003ci\u003eSeven Arrows\u003c\/i\u003e. It then examines what some actual Indians believe in and why that should matter to non-Indians who want to use Indian philosophies as a basis of their own belief systems. Phil Hart, a student of religion and cultures, researched an array of concepts including creation myths, Jung, archetypes, medicine wheels, vision quests, Mormon philosophies, and a variety of religions to create this compendium of information about Native American and new age culture. He discovers that despite all of the differences, threads of commonality unite all people everywhere and that no one has a total monopoly on the truth.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.46 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 28, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42580502675552,"sku":"9780595435036","price":28.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/1922\/9280\/files\/eDNBQnJqZ20xdTBrTTZ4ekgxclZ6dz09.webp?v=1770825331","url":"https:\/\/bijoucc.myshopify.com\/products\/the-book-of-imaginary-indians-ancient-traditions-and-modern-caricatures-in-the-white-mans-quest-for-meaning-paperback","provider":"CARIBBEAN CONNECT","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
