Navigating through the nonsense. The mystical. The delusion. The incoherence with reality is like wading through a swamp, uphill, in the fog.

Has it ever felt like shamanism is a fascinating subject? One that calls to you?

But when you look into it,, you read some books, you join a few groups... something doesn't feel right? Something doesn't sit with you and what you know to be real.

There is a disconnect there and you don't know what it is.

The truth is, shamanism is not nice. Its not mystical in the slightest and there is no room for imagination or belief. It requires discipline, dedication and true experience rooted in reality.

This is hard path to follow!

So it's not hard to understand why there is so much bullsh*t surrounding Shamanism. Its easy to fall into the imagination trap. To take drugs and think you are performing shamanic technique. To imagine floating to the upperworld on a unicorn, falling down a hole to the underworld. Or even, having a chat with the animal spirits.

All these things play right into the hands of those who want to believe. Those that sincerely fall right into the imagination trap.

You wouldn't buy a piano, play a few scales and believe you are a concert pianist right?

Don't be like everybody else...

Start learning shamanism the right way

The foundation of shamanism is Chalicity. You could call it stage 1 if you like, but achieving Chalicity will ensure your shamanism is real. That it means something.

It's what will separate you from the navel gazers and the believers in magic and unicorns. Good Chalicity will expose the falseness. It will open you up to reality and experience.

Before you listen to the episode, a quick recap on the three components of chalicity.

Bhatt - The discipline, the strength. The eyes of the eagle.

Tor-Shil-Teen - Be playful. Retain the child-like qualities of experimentation

Gookharch - The results of the hard work. The experience.

This episode takes a closer look at the importance of chalicity.

In short. How chalicity is your bedrock that all your future shamanic technique will rest on.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/11477393Sat, 25 Mar 2017 11:56:23 +0000Woven EnergyPursuing real, practical shamanism is NOT easy.

We want to make sure our shamanism is real and not delusional.

We want to make sure the knowledge, the understanding, we gain through shamanic technique comes into us from outside. From nature. And not from within us.

So why are we dedicating the next few episodes to what we call 'the miasma'?

Well the miasma plays a huge part in diluting our connection to nature. It's a veil. A haze which sits in front of us obscuring truth and convincing us of falseness.

It's a tool which can be used to leverage control over people. Its effects have tremendous ripples on all of our lives as civilised human beings.
"The miasma is a falseness which comes to sit between you and the natural world" - Damon Smith

The concept of the miasma is built into the societies of more animistic peoples. In fact, they have words, many words which describe the different effects of the miasma on us.

In Mongol we have 'Teeren'

In Japanese we have 'Ashiki'

In Siberian we have 'Uha' and 'Ehru'

In Aboriginal we have 'Ilhwa'

In Manchu we have 'Ehe'

The list goes on and on and on.

It's just that English, the language of a settled and civilized people is a bad language for describing shamanism. Or trying to convey a shamanistic/animistic understanding of the world.

Why is this important for learning shamanism

We have to be aware of its effects on us.

Shamanism at its very foundation are a set of techniques used to derive knowledge and understanding directly from nature.

Think of the miasma as a huge mist which hangs in front of you stifling this knowledge. Obscuring it and diluting it. Infecting our perceptions of nature and to the outside world. Colouring our imaginations.

In short, we need to know if our knowledge, our feedback is coming from nature or from the miasma.

The next three episodes are dedicated to the concept of the miasma. The science behind it. How its been used to influence whole cultures and societies.

This is a fascinating and deep look at what underlies the fabric of our civilisation. Its side effects and ultimately our own participation in the destruction of shamanism.

Listeners to this podcast will know our position of the use of psychoactive substances. They are a tool. They require a lot of discipline and experience in shamanic technique without them first.

There is no greater fuel for the miasma than an inexperienced person with a very active imagination taking psychoactive drugs.

Included in this episode is a look at how psychoactive substances work and affect the brain. Its a great look at the how and why behind the use of drugs and genuine shamanic technique.]]>https://api.spreaker.com/episode/10705631Fri, 10 Feb 2017 22:34:25 +0000Woven EnergySo we want to learn shamanism.

We explore none other than the Evenki people of northern Asia. They are a facsinating look at Animism in play.

So we take a lot of the topics we talked about last episode and look at how it applies to the Evenki people.

"Everything you hear about shamanism, well... The Evenks have it in abundance" - Damon Smith

There is a lot in this episode specifically on the Evenks and their Shamanism aswell.

Animistic peoples are mistreated to the extreme. The Evenks had to endure tremendous hardships at the hands of invaders. Its especially interesting to see how cunning the Evenks were in evading the Christian forces for as long as possible.

All of this and more is covered in this weeks episode of the Woven Energy podcast on Shamanism

You've read or heard a little bit about Animism.

And there is something about what you've read that doesn't quite sit with you.

For me... The concept of Animism never made sense. I have a hard time accepting anything that requires me to believe something that, on the surface, is complete nonsense.

Maybe you've read that Animism is 'The belief that spirits inhabit rocks and trees etc.'

Or even worse... 'the belief in a supernatural power that organizes and animates the material universe.'

Does this mean it is a religion?

After all, thats what google says... right?
"Animism is only a belief system to people who think belief systems are important" - Damon Smith

What is Animism?

Imagine you are a anthropologist. You approach animist societies wanting to find out what they believe. You make the assumption that Animism societies have beliefs to begin with.

We have beliefs so why shouldn't they?

In fact we place so much emphasis on our beliefs and our belief systems that perhaps... We view other cultures and societies through the lenses of our own cultural baggage.

And here lies the problem.

A fundamental problem in trying to understand what Animism is. Or rather, the natural, 'no belief necessary' explanation of what Animism is.

Its not that Animist societies believe in this crazy 'animism' thing. Its that on a fundamental level, we asked the wrong questions due to our cultural biases.

All this is covered in the episode.

Things covered in this episode

A good look at animistic societies
The three main activities of animists
How animist societies moved towards pastoral and agricultural societies
The effects of religion on animism and why spreading faith and belief among the people kept the powers that be at the top.
We also discuss what Animism actually is.

What it represents as a real phenomena in the real world. You will not need to believe anything and you certainly won't need to have faith.

Its a real thing... a tangible thing that's the same thing wherever you find it.

Listen to the episode to find out exactly what Animism is.

At the end of the episode, I ask Damon for one simple piece of solid advice. Advice he could give to people just venturing into the world of Shamanism and Animism so you don't mess up.

Where did Shamanism come from?

Why do we have Shamanism in the first place?

What does it mean to be the wild animals we once were?

Shamanism and Animism were absolutely essential for survival. Without them, we would not be here.

Shamanism protected the group as a whole, Animism protected us on an individual level.

In this episode we explore the relationship between shamanism and evolution. The origins of primates and shamanism's role when we came down from the trees.

We take a look at human evolution and the origins of canids.

The most intriguing part of the episode is a closer look at the relationship between us and dogs. The domestication of the dog and perhaps... the dogs domestication of us?

Whilst Bhatt is about learning discipline, tor-shil-teen is about retaining those child-like, playful characteristics. That experimental quality children have (and wild animals) to the outside world.

Its about gaining that feedback from the natural world, and importantly, learning from it.
