During these researches, he learned that the Tzotzil pay close attention to their dreams, and they consider that Westerners and non-Maya Mexicans who ignore these night-time voyages live only half a life. This philosophy is expressed in the succinct Tzotzil phrase ta sba balamil ta ch'ulel, 'on the face of the Earth, and in the soul', meaning that human life must be lived in both waking life and dreams.
This little book of strange verse accompanied by surreal sketches is an attempt to bridge the gap between the Mayan cosmovision and the Western world, and represents an integrated reflection of Bruce's journey to Chiapas.
Featuring visits to contemporary highland Maya villages, archaeological sites and time spent with indigenous people - on the face of the Earth - as well as ceremonies, visions and dreams - and in the soul - that became increasingly influenced by Tzotzil insights into how to live, this collection of poetry expresses Bruce's effort to intimate something of that fuller dreaming human life which for the indigenous people of Chiapas is as natural as events in the waking world.
