SHAMAN
A SHAMAN is A member of certain tribal societies who acts as a medium between the visible world and an
invisible spirit world and who practices magic or sorcery for purposes of healing, divination, and control over
natural events.
Shamanism is a set of tools and techniques used to interact with the spirit world and the world around us. It has
no specific pantheon of gods and is attached to no particular culture
The most ancient known tradition of religious authority, shamans access the divine through ecstatic trance. This
trance can be achieved through any number of means, including orgiastic sex, chanting, fasting, wild dancing and
the ingestion of hallucinogenic drugs.
The word "shaman" actually originates among the natives of Siberia, where it describes a specialized type of
holy person. The shamans of Siberia interact with deities and spirits not only with prayer, ritual and offerings,
but also through direct contact with the spirits themselves.
