The Forgetting Game
Lost in Grief, Found in the Wild: A Father's Unforgettable Quest
By Chris Barclay
After losing his infant daughter and surviving a night stranded in the wilderness of Northern Thailand, Chris Barclay finds a remote tribal village where an elderly shaman named Satha reveals the secrets of the Forgetting Game. What follows will change everything he thought he knew about life, death, and the nature of reality.
From the Back Cover
Blending shamanic wisdom, psychedelic insight, and modern consciousness research, this cross-cultural adventure asks why we suffer, how dreams shape reality, and what it takes to remember who we are.
Satha’s teachings offer answers to humanity’s oldest questions — and a set of practices for living them. The book includes exercises and a journal for applying what it uncovers.
The Forgetting Game is a testament to love, loss, and the search for meaning, and it will leave you questioning your own path.
