“Dr. Goodman has pioneered in the study of bodily postures and altered states of consciousness.” —Stanley Krippner, professor of personal mythology and parapsychology “And suddenly the understanding of my own vision washed over me like a mighty wave . . . For life or for death, I was committed to that mighty realm of which I was shown a brief reminder, the world where all was forever motion and emergence, that realm where the spirits ride the wind.” —from the Prologue Anthropologist and spiritual explorer Felicitas Goodman reexamines our notions of the nature of reality by studying the ritual postures of native art assumed by her subjects during trance states. For readers desiring to discover this world of ancient myths, she has included a practical guide on how to achieve such ecstatic experiences. “The book is clearly written for the general reader and includes many descriptions of trance experiences. It may serve as a good introduction to the nature and appeal of the shamanic revival in modern Western cultures.” —Theological Book Review “A case study in experiential anthropology that offers a unique mix of autobiography, mythology, experiential research, and archaeological data to support a challenging thesis—that certain body postures may help induce specific trance states.” —Shaman’s Drum “This is a spellbinding and exceptionally readable book by an extraordinary woman.” —Yoga Journal

Pneumaticos is made up of the Greek word "Pneuma" which means a current of air, breath or breeze. It is used to refer to the Spirit of God. The word "ticos" also means activity of. Therefore Pneumaticos means "of the Activities of the breath of God" or "the Activities of the Spirit of God" or "the Manifestation of the Holy Spirit". The Father and Our Lord Jesus Christ sent the Holy Spirit to complete the work and the purpose of God on earth. The Holy Spirit came fully to stay, do and complete His work on earth from the day of Pentecost as stated in Acts chapter two. It is worth noting that when the Holy Spirit came, He came upon the disciples of Jesus Christ, living in them and working in/with them through various manifestations. The earliest manifestations or activities of the Holy Spirit the disciple took note of was that the Holy Spirit manifested as rushing wind and tongues of fire. As the disciples were filled with the Spirit, they learnt and then ride on the wind of the Holy Spirit and this is known as Pneumaticos. Riding on the wind of the Holy Spirit means manifesting the Holy Spirit in every area of our Christian lives. Riding on the wind of the Spirit includes;-Being full of the Spirit (Acts 6:3) (Eph 5:18)-Living by the Spirit (Galatians 5:17)-Walking in the Spirit. (Galatians 5:25) (Galatians 5: 16)-Speaking by the Spirit (1 Cor 12:3)-Being led of the Spirit. (Galatians 5:18)-Operating with the gifts of the Spirit (1 Cor 12:7)-Bearing the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22)-Worshipping the Father in spirit by Spirit (John 4:24) The purpose of this book is introduce readers and seekers to the Holy Spirit with the aim of creating an avenue for them to encounter the Holy Spirit and develop an intimate relationship that will serve as their foundation for riding the wind of the Spirit and manifesting the Holy Spirit in every area of their lives.Did you know that the entire creation is waiting for us to manifest as God's sons?Romans 8:19 says "For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God".Yes, the earth is eager for us to bring to fruition our godly identities. The book is tailored to help readers find their identity in Christ so they can reflect their godly identities in the world being the cities set on a hill that Jesus said cannot be hidden. If you are interested not only to be baptize by the Holy Spirit but desire to lead people to receive Spirit baptism with evidence of speaking in tongues or interested in being equipped to clearly hear the voice of the Lord, flow with the gifts of the Spirit and operate in the supernatural realm.
