Shamanic Cleansing, Ecuador

During a visit to the Napo Wildlife Center, operatied by the Anangu Quichua community, among 82 square miles of rainforest rich with birds and other wildlife, we asked to meet with a local shaman. Domenic agreed to show us how he used his knowledge of the plants and anmimals to help his people. He works in concert with the nearest medical people, who are frequently very far away.

I believe he has inhaled the "bad stuff" and then expels it into his hand.

Is it bad to be sceptical to a lighter degree but still enjoying the process and feeling rejuvenated? Thoughts?

[dodgema]

@halfhigh Not bad at all. In fact, that is sort of how I approached it. Very insightful comment

10 years ago my friends child would cry for anything in New York doctors didn't find anything wrong with the 5 years old boy. In vacation we went to Ecuador and someone suggested to take the little boy to a shaman. The child was cured. No more sleepless nights for his parents. Shamanism works.

@TheRichestCadaver Thank you for that comment. I've found Shamanism often works best when dealing with hidden fears or feelings. And children are esp. susceptible.

oh come on, you cant actually believe this is real can you? you realy think he is removing evil spirits? That evil spirits exist?

[dodgema]

@316124 I've found that one can some very interesting experiences if one is willing to have a temporary suspension of disbelief. Try it, you might like it.

the evil spirits is real, and are material, are called being human.

one thing though, what is it hes doing near the end, is he spitting on your head? or inhaling or exhaling, it sounds kinda gross and i havent seen any other shamans do this

[Snowblower89]
