Shaman Part I: Who Are the Shaman?

This is the first in a series of short videos on shamanism. This particular video discusses where shamanism is considered to have originated, how the shaman have been viewed throughout history and where the practice of shamanism is at today. Part II will discuss more specific practices of the shaman.

Thank you!

Great video. You may add Ancient Wolf of the Dran Rashar as one who is part of a group "reviving" Shamanism, though we don't believe it ever stopped existing even in our modern society. We've just renamed our Shaman.

@progressivescan09 interesting point : Human 'Race'. The term is inherently connotative of a competitive jostling for some form of supremacy! Why employ the term 'race' to describe a differentiation in the species! This is truly a demonic instigation! Questions such as 'what race are you'? etc... are so virile and charged with a reductionist notion that those who promote these terms are even innocently causing division with these words! Some people feel ashamed of their race due to perceptions!

@1NX9

ehh I didn't intend on sounding like all we need is self...

If we didn't keep our bodies alive, we wouldn't have time to advance before death o-o

With that said, every human deserves food, clothing, and shelter to sustain a life without fear of weather, hunger, or sickness.

Social injustice is one thing I fight against because I see it every day.

And racism is something I do not understand much.

Aren't we all in the human "race?"

@1NX9

cont.

(btw agree that money and objects cant be taken with us.)

Hey theres a site by "philborges" you might want to check out.

He has photograph many endangered tribes. These peoples will most likely go extinct in our life time. We will only remember them through our stories we tell to our grand children.

@progressivescan09

If we only care for only our spiritual gains and ignore real physical needs and social injustices of Indigenious peoples it becomes a very selfish moltive.

In countries like Brazil entire ethics groups has been wipe off the face of the earth. Its a silent genocide.

@1NX9

It is true that religion has been industrialized and done for a profit. It would be so much that those who hold true to the original teachings would feel like they were the only ones on the Earth who felt that way...

It doesn't seem that anyone remembers that money and objects can be taken with them after death. Only their spirits remain.

So instead of people working toward monetary gain, we need to work toward spiritual gain so we can take what we worked for all our lives with us...
