L'herbe du diable et la petite fumée: una vía yaqui del conocimiento, es un relato de iniciación del autor Carlos Castaneda con Don Juan Matus, un chamán yaqui. En este libro, Castaneda describe su aprendizaje sobre la percepción y el dominio de la "realidad no ordinaria" a través del uso de plantas sagradas como el peyote. El libro explora temas de conocimiento, poder y la búsqueda de una comprensión más profunda de la realidad.

Carlos Castaneda was a Peruvian-American writer, trained as an anthropologist. Starting in 1968, Castaneda published a series of books that describe alleged training in shamanism that he received under the tutelage of a Yaqui "Man of Knowledge" named Don Juan Matus. While Castaneda's work was accepted as factual by many when the books were first published, the character of Don Juan and the training he described is now generally considered to be fabricated and to have little relation to the actual cultural practices of the Yaqui. Castaneda's early writings featuring Don Juan were bestsellers with the general public, and are considered to be a significant influence on neoshamanism and the New Age movement more broadly.
