Modern shamans drive cars and pay taxes

Spirituality runs deep in the remote Russian Republic of Tyva. While Shamanism is the unofficial religion there, Lamaism, or Tibetan Buddhism, is the official one. But most people don't have to choose between the two, since shamans and lamas don't have a grudge against each other.

Both Christians and Muslims have to learn from this video: how to respect the others culture and faith! The tolerance and respect between shamans and lamas in this video is a lesson for all! Middle Esatern religions are based on disrespect and hatred for the different thinkers or belivers. This caused many wars and detruction of so many cultures and religions.

The difficulty with experience over an indirect medium like television or film.

Shamanism and ceremony ( like sex ) is not really a spectator event.

The dubbing on this sequence is appalling and the general level of journalism is secondary school level.

However if it gets someone interested in doing more (in depth) research, then perhaps it has done its job?

Shamanism IS a way of life it is not a religion or dogma

''Tengrism'' (Gök Tanrı) was first religon of Turks...Some of the Turkic people(in Tuva, Altai, Khakas, Yakutia and others) are still continue this religion. Unfortunately, islam and other religions destroyed Turkic people's old and original customs.

We are (as a Turkey's Turks) effected from arabic and farsi cultures because of the islamic governments... Some of the Turks are still finding old Turkic customs.

Tengrisim and shamanism include natural power!

Tanrı Türk'ü Korusun...

@yerk3 Ok thanks, a good point to start from.

@nochenontubo I've seen pictures of those drums. The handle on the back is comprised of two cords which are connected to the edges of the drum head. The tighter the shaman squeezes the cords together, the higher the pitch of the drum.

@szalard

@walkingbear56 i AGREE, Shamanism is not a Religion.. in fact, religion is an aberrant form of the spiritual facet of society. Unlike the major religions, tribal shamanism is functional to the life according to nature, and allows a direct experience of divinity, two things that institutionalized dogmas have long ago lost, with dire consequences even for humanity.
