Book Synopsis
The Time of the Black Jaguar speaks to the times of change that we are now living in. The insights contained in the book originate from ancient indigenous cultures. According to what the author learned from his elders, human beings always have a choice between the path of competition and the path of cooperation. The healing of the earth depends on the healing of humanity and will only become possible as we return to a relationship of cooperation with all of life. In order to do this we first need to return to ourselves, remembering our original, inherent wisdom. Indigenous people believe that we humans have all the necessary talents to be caretakers of Mother Earth.

This book reveals our true capacities in a strong and clear way, offering the reader not only information, but a real opportunity to participate in the work that needs to be done to save our planet.

Trade Review
The Time of the Black Jaguar is a masterwork for our time. Arkan’s profound wisdom and deep insights will fill you with hope and inspiration and, at the same time, challenge you to play your rightful role in ensuring the sustainability of life on this planet. He writes with eloquence and heart, boldness and humility, and carries a message all of us must hear and embody. This remarkable book is an exquisite read and a timely message of power and truth. I highly recommend this book to all people who are awake and ready to engage in the real work of our time.”
—Lynne Twist, cofounder of The Pachamama Alliance, author of The Soul of Money “Arkan has crafted an incredibly thorough and articulate expression of Indigenous wisdom. Teachings and principles like those in this book trailblaze the path for saving humanity.” —John Perkins, New York Times bestselling author of Confessions of an Economic Hit Man

“A book of extraordinary simplicity and power. His simple life, lived in the depths of the primordial vision of the world, has more to say about modernity and the world crisis we have engendered than all the books written by the specialists of the modern world itself. He echoes Plato: Our task is to remember what we have forgotten, and in remembering, we will find ourselves reconnecting with our Earth and learning the Language of the Mother as if for the first time.” —Jim Garrison
