Shaman-sorcerers, however, do have the upper hand; as beings on their way to dying, they have someone whispering in their ear that everything is ephemeral. The whisperer is Death, the infallible advisor, the only one who won't ever tell you a lie." Don Juan Matus to Carlos Castaneda , "The Active Side of Infinity" WHAT IS A SHAMAN? The Shaman is a survivor, he has passed in one way or another through Pain, Disease and Death One of the qualities that makes the Shamanic phenomenon admirable is its generalized presence among all the groups that make up our predecessors. His practices, though they evolve in the actual moment, work with elements, basic references, archaic symbols and emotions already present since the origin of humankind. When the geographical distribution of Shaman practices are studied the presence of analogous activities in the five continents stands out. The map of the world the Shaman operates in can be understood from what is psychologically called "modified states of consciousness" (understanding as consciousness the capacity of "noticing", from the Latin

Tunji Beier SHAMANISM AND MUSIC - MUSIC SHAMANIC Post-Shamanic Traditions by Dean Edwards Shamanism is classified by anthropologists as an archaic magico-religious phenomenon in which the shaman is the great master of ecstasy. Shamanism itself, was defined by the late Mircea Eliade as a technique of ecstasy. A shaman may exhibit a particular magical specialty (such as control over fire, wind or magical flight). When a specialization is present the most common is as a healer. The distinguishing characteristic of shamanism is its focus on an ecstatic trance state in which the soul of the shaman is believed to leave the body and ascend to the sky (heavens) or descend into the earth (underworld). The shaman makes use of spirit helpers, with whom he or she communicates, all the while retaining control over his or her own consciousness. (Examples of possession occur, but are the exception, rather than the rule.) It is also important to note that while most shamans in traditional societies are men, either women or men may and have become shamans.

http://www.csulb.edu/~csnider/dickinson.shamanism.html

Extractions: California State University, Long Beach "A Druidic Difference": Emily Dickinson and Shamanism That Emily Dickinson published almost no poems while she was alive yet became enormously popular when her first book appeared four years after her death is a well known fact. [. . .] it can be a revelation whose heights and depths are beyond our fathoming, or a vision of beauty which we can never put into words. [. . .] the primordial experiences rend from top to bottom the curtain upon which is painted the picture of an ordered world, and allow a glimpse into the unfathomable abyss of the unborn and of things yet to be. ("Psychology and Literature" 90). Something in her psyche drove her to probe those "heights and depths," which were often beyond her own fathoming. This something Jung calls an "innate drive" (ibid. 101), and I believe that the archetype she chiefly represents and is driven by is shamanism. Not a shaman in the traditional sense as described by Mircea Eliade in his classic, Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy , Dickinson nevertheless fits Joan B. Townsend's description of neo-shamans as people "often disenchanted with traditional religions and often with much of Western society. Although they tend not to be affiliated with any organized religion, they all continue intensive personal quests for spirituality, meaning, and transcendence" (78). Her personal questher personal myth as expressed in her poetrycompensates for contemporary imbalance through a search for meaning in the face of the breakdown of collective myths. Had she lived in another era and been associated with a religion or belief system that included shamans, no doubt Dickinson would have been a shaman in the traditional sense, for she is concerned about the same mysteries that concern shamans and investigates these mysteries using the imagery of shamanism. These mysteries include death and the afterlife, as well as suffering, loss, and healing.

Extractions: Become an Erowid member and get a one-year subscription to Erowid Extracts Path : spirit traditions SHAMANISM The animistic religion among traditional cultures based on the belief in powerful spirits. Shamans (magician, healer, or medium) owe their power to mystical communion with the spirit world. The shaman shields humans from destructive spirits by rendering the spirits harmless. Heor shereceives powers from a spirit who selects him and whom he cannot refuse. Characteristically, he goes into auto-hypnotic trances, during which he is said to be in contact with spirits. He occupies a position of great power and prestige in his tribe. Noted especially among Siberians, traditional shamanism is also found among the Eskimos, some Native American tribes, in Southeast Asia, and in Oceania.

THE SHAMANIC SACRED TREE Danilov Innokentil In the heavens there is a tree with the name, " ." The top of it goes up to the ninth heaven; its circumference cannot be defined. From its roots to the very top—this tree is covered with growths so that clear branches cannot be seen. In these growths on the tree originate born male and female shamans, and everyone who knows sorcery and magic. The strong are born at the base of the trunk: shamans of full strength are born at the root of the tree. In this growth there is a small burial mound.But some also say that the very greatest shamans are raised and rocked to sleep in the special swell at the lower land of the evil spirits— , under whose tutelage shamans are tempered and then emerge. Great and terrible shamans multiply from this source.
