Peter Thurrell ’94 (New England, MS in Environmental Studies) has written a memoir of true-life stories spanning nearly 60 years of exploring psychedelic spirituality and trauma healing. Badji’s Tales is a transmission, encoded in story, that reminds us what is truly important about being human and why we are here. It is a collection of amazing, funny, and outrageous true-life stories that follow the arc of a lifetime.
Thurrell is an explorer of the inner landscape of life. He graduated from Exeter, Oberlin, and Antioch New England. He has studied with teachers in many spiritual traditions, ranging from Buddhists to Sufis, and has lived and worked with shamans in five indigenous medicine traditions around the world. He now lives and plays music and pickleball next to the Canoe Brook in Southern Vermont.
