From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Douglas Gillette is an author who has written a series of five books with co-author Robert L. Moore that explore the archetypal level of the human psyche. He is also the author of The Shaman's Secret: The Lost Resurrection Teachings of the Ancient Maya. Gillette has worked as a mythologist, artist, and pastoral counselor, and is cofounder of the Institute for World Spirituality. Together with Moore, Gillette uses a modern adaptation of Carl Jung's psychology, and has played an important role in the men's movement in the United States.
