A description of the experience
Vusamazulu Credo Mutwa – Zulu Shaman [Dreams, Prophecies and Mysteries]
Each night my mind would take long fantastic journeys to unknown lands and to times in the remotest past. One moment I would see myself sitting inside a hut built entirely of what appeared to be decaying grass surrounded by unbelievably ancient men and women, some of whose faces and bodies were one mass of wrinkles. These people were telling me things, they were telling me about herbs that could cure and herbs that were poisonous. They were telling me about medical preparations which I had never seen in my life.
