The dialogue of earth and sky : dreams, souls, curing, and the modern Aztec underworld
"In Mexico's Sierra Norte de Puebla, beliefs that were held before the coming of Europeans continue to guide the lives of modern Aztecs. For residents of San Martin Zinacapan, life in and on the earth is animated by the same forces, through which people seek to maintain a cohesive view of the relationship of humankind, the cosmos, and the natural world. This delicate balance of the human spirit maintains the health and well-being of villagers, and is an essential part of the social and ideological framework that makes a person's life whole."
