- Hi -- a while back, I read _In_Search_Of_The_Warrior_Spirit_,
- written by a psychotherapist/aikido master, about teaching aikido to
- Green berets.
-
- He mentioned Capoeira, a Brazilian method of martial artistry.
- There is a funky stringed instrument, with one string, called the
- berimbau, and apparently one strums funky jammin' Brazilian rhythms
- on this and goes into trance and so forth.
-
- Any one know about this? And (obsession becomes apparent) how
- it relates to Kundalini? If at all?
-
-
- Thanks
- Luck
- Rick
