What is the link betweenshamanism and schizophrenia?
in other cultures where shamanism is practiced altered states of consciousness is seen as a sort of gift where the person has a gift to unlock his unconscious, then eventually the collective conscious and even, in some cultures, alternate spiritual realms. Do you think this is all rubbish. It seems Western medicine does. I can hardly believe that we know everything there is to know about psychotic or trance-like or meditative states. It seems some of these so-called primitive cultures weren't all that primitive after all.
First, one must realize that there is nothing physically wrong with those diagnosed as having schizophrenia. This IS merely western-type medicine's inability to grasp that there is a supernatural existence. Effectively there are two types of individuals that have the schizo-experience. There are those who receive it as a result of blessings such as those diagnosed with schizophrenia (the saints), and there are those who experience it as a result of the lifting of so-called "veil of the senses." The reduction of sensory input is what is required to experience the supernatural. This can be accomplished through drugs or through isolation, as experienced in an isolation tank or even some solitary confinements. Science calls much of what is experienced as hallucinatory - it isn't. These individuals are experiencing he unseen reality.
What can I learn aboutShamanism in Barnaul, Russia?
I'm an English kid travelling through Russia at the moment, soon to be in Barnaul, which is within Siberia and the Altai republic. How active are Shamanism and Animisnm there, and is Barnaul a good place tolearn more about the subject? I am also going through Tobolsk, Omsk and Tomsk - are these good places to learn about Russian religion & Shamanism? Cheers.
Hey, I live in Barnaul, on the Altai Territory. Don't mix up the Altai Territory and it's center Barnaul with the Altai Republic, these are two different administrative areas of Russia. If you aim to learn about shamanism and Altaian people, go straight to the Altai Republic and it's center town Gorno-Altaisk and don't fail to make a trip in the Altai Mountains. Here, in Barnaul, you won't meet any Altaians and shamanists, they live in the Altai Republic. But anyway you will have to travel through Barnaul as a transit stop. And Russian religion (orthodoxy) has nothing to do with Altaian shamanism.
