Shamanism - Humanity's Original Spirituality
Tens of thousands of years ago humanity had one spirituality; which was
Shamanism. This is why ancient rock art depicting shamanic practices and shamans, dating back over
30,000 years, exists.
Every religion or spirituality developed since is in one way or another based on, or a
'corruption of, Shamanism.
Shamanism is part of your basic human nature. Even the way you think,
create your life and act has its roots in Shamanism. As you explore my websites and blogs you will
discover the reasons why I say this.
Shamanism is not some weird practice - it can seem that way at times though because many
people are not familiar with it.
Shamanism is not a religion, has nothing to do with a cult and you do
not need to join anything. In fact, no single country or people group can claim to be the only true Shamanism
because in times past this form of spirituality was practiced worldwide. In many areas today, Shamanism has
died out from an indigenous perspective - especially in the westernized and heavily Judeo Christian
areas.
Shamanism is not evil and the words Black Shaman from which this website and
the associated blog derive their name are not evil either. Black Shaman does not mean involvement in black
magic. You can read more about Black Shamans in my blog article: Welcome to my blog ~ What is a Black Shaman?
One of the wonderful things about Shamanism is that you can find out about it for yourself.
Because it is 'built in' to your human nature and the practice involves interaction with spiritual energies,
beings, forces and so on; you are able to relate in a similar way to meeting a person. When you have
experienced the activity, wisdom and presence of Spirit in your life you will not be able to doubt again. No one
will be able to take it away from you. You will never have a crisis of faith, or wonder if there is some God who
might hear your prayers. You will know.
I wrote an important article about Shamanism on my blog which will help you understand more
about Shamanism. Titled "Key life fix", the article contains a story, which among other things is a road map to how
you can experience the depth of life which is your birthright as a human being.
Those with eyes to see and ears to hear will be able to read the map.
Which are you?
Here is the link to the article: Key life fix.
If you are new to Shamanism then I suggest you seek out some reading material which will give
you a better idea of what is involved.
Here are some suggestions; however do not be put off by any of the titles:
Note about: Journeying - Where Shamanism and Psychology Meet.
At the time of writing, Amazon are uncertain when, or if, this book will be back in stock. Amazon only currently have
it available in Spanish. This book, written by Jeannette M Gagan, PhD, is in my view critical reading - its
contents are of great significance. At the time of writing the book is available for order from “Australia’s Biggest Online Bookstore“. Just type the author's last name
(Gagan) into the search box below. (Please bear in mind that prices are in Australian
dollars).
