Black Snake Moan is an American industrial rock band formed in 1997 in the San Francisco Bay Area by singer, songwriter Paige Lawrence.
 Named after the blues song, “That Black Snake Moan” by country blues artist Blind Lemon Jefferson the band began its career playing blues-influenced industrial music.
 Lawrence's lyrics, influenced heavily by authors Carlos Castaneda, Anne Rice, and Frank Herbert, focus on introspection, indigenous spirituality, unexplainable phenomenon and personal development.
 Lawrence, the only permanent member of the group has recruited completely new musicians to play live for each of the two Black Snake Moan albums, Rattle In The Sand (1999) and Tension (2005).
 The majority of the band's live performances have been held in the San Francisco bay area, where they have a strong local following.
Jon Krakauer (born April 12, 1954) is an American writer and mountaineer, primarily known for his writings about the outdoors, especially mountain-climbing.
 He is the author of best-selling non-fiction books—"Into the Wild", "Into Thin Air", "Under the Banner of Heaven", and ""—as well as numerous magazine articles.
 He was a member of an ill-fated expedition to summit Mount Everest in 1996, one of the deadliest disasters in the history of climbing Everest.
Recapitulation is a term first used by Carlos Castaneda in his book, "The Eagle’s Gift", published in 1982.
 In "The Eagle's Gift", Florinda, one of don Juan's party of warriors, teaches Castaneda about the process and purpose of recapitulation.
 She explained that recapitulation consisted of "recollecting one's life down to the most insignificant detail" and that when a woman's recapitulation was complete she "no longer abided by the limitations of her person."
 She further explained that in the process of recapitulation one recounts all the feelings they invested in whatever memory they were reviewing.
The Book of est is a fictional account of the training created by Werner Erhard, ("est"), or Erhard Seminars Training, first published in 1976 by Holt, Rinehart and Winston.
 The book was written by est graduate Luke Rhinehart.
 Rhinehart is the pen name of writer George Cockcroft.
 The book was endorsed by Erhard, and includes a foreword by him.
 Its contents attempts to replicate the experience of the est training, with the reader being put in the place of a participant in the course.
 The end of the book includes a comparison by the author between Erhard's methodologies to Zen, "The Teachings of Don Juan" by Carlos Castaneda, and to Rhinehart's own views from "The Dice Man".
Don Juan Matus is the name used by anthropologist and author Carlos Castaneda to describe a Yaqui Mexican spiritual guide (teacher) in his series of books on Nagualism (although Castaneda repeatedly indicates that "Juan Matus" is pseudonym chosen by the author to protect the bearer's true identity).
 He is described as a Native American of Yaqui/Yuma parentage.
 Castaneda writes that he first met Matus at a bus depot in Nogales, Arizona, in the early 1960s.
 He is described by Castaneda as a 'Man of Knowledge' from a Toltec lineage of seers, who imparts much of his wisdom and clarity through his 'connection' with Castaneda.
 The knowledge is described as being passed on to Castaneda by means of actual experiences, simple exercises, talks, and much patience on the part of both, which ends in transforming Castaneda's view of the world.
 There is extensive scholarly debate whether Matus was a real person, an allegorical figure, or an invention by Castaneda.
Carlos Castaneda (December 25, 1925 April 27, 1998) was an American author with a Ph.D. in anthropology.
Separate Reality is a 20 m long climbing route in Yosemite National Park in California, United States.
 The famous route is well known for its exposed crux and 6 m crack in its roof through which the sky is visible.
 The route's access is about 200 m above the Merced River, but is better reached by abseiling from above.
 The name is from the 1971 novel "A Separate Reality: Further Conversations with Don Juan" from Carlos Castaneda.
Taisha Abelar, born Maryann Simko, is an American writer and anthropologist who was an associate of Carlos Castaneda.
Florinda Donner (originally Regine Margarita Thal, later Florinda Donner-Grau) is an American writer and anthropologist known as one of Carlos Castaneda's "witches" (the term for three women who were friends of Castaneda).
Víctor Sánchez (born December 9, 1961) is a Mexican author.
 He was initially inspired by the writings of Carlos Castaneda and by his own studies among the Wirrarika, said to be cultural descendants of the Pre-Columbian Native American Toltecs.
