Shamanism is the oldest spiritual tradition on Earth, a path of direct revelation that is indigenous to many regions of the world, and wide-ranging in cultural expression. In some parts of the world, shamanic practices are closely tied with honouring the spirits of the Earth, seasons, and elements. In other places, shamanism can appear like an organized religion, with codes of conduct, belief in higher powers, and a complex pantheon of deities who are worshiped through elaborate rituals.

Throughout the ages, as the ancient and indigenous cultures were colonized, the teachings for an enlightened and empowered life had to be kept hidden to preserve the teachings’ powerful wisdom.

Without this ancient wisdom, much of the world fell prey to strife and confusion. For over a hundred years, necessity has caused the Mystery Schools to emerge, releasing the teachings once again to the public. Today, there are many mystery schools that exist in plain sight. There are Egyptian, Buddhist, Mexica, Hindu, and even Christian mystery schools.

Shamanism is one of the oldest spiritual and healing traditions of mankind on the entire planet. Its roots go back to the origins of humanity and underlie every known culture. It is not philosophy or religion, but practical techniques, methods and beliefs based on the ability to use the laws of Nature and the Cosmos.

The word shaman means "he who knows", comes from the root sa - "know" and comes from the Evenki language of the Eastern Siberian. But a shaman is also "the one who searches in the dark." Shamans are healers, priests, visionaries in communication with the world of gods and spirits. They are the predecessors of modern doctors, psychotherapists, psychiatrists and ecologists.

Common in shamanic traditions is the belief in the existence of spirits and the spiritual world from which knowledge, power and healing come, as well as the belief that everything that exists has a soul or spirit. The basic premise of shamanism is the existence of the spirit world, and a shaman is a person who can enter this world and cooperate with invisible powers. For centuries, shamans have been dealing with maintaining harmony between the real and the spiritual world, between man and nature, they heal, read the future, mediate relationships between people and spirits. They are a bridge between the earthly world and the invisible one, they mediate between the world of spirits and the everyday life of ordinary people.

SHAMANIC JOURNEY

The most important shamanic practice is the "shamanic magical journey" into the spirit world, going from one cosmic region to another. During such a journey, the shaman can heal, summons the Force, searches for lost souls, and brings the souls of the dead to their resting place.

Shamans travel to the spiritual worlds to ask for help and healing for people. They achieve this by entering altered states of consciousness, trance and ecstatic states. The shaman enters the trance most often through rhythmic drumming (drums, rattles), monotonous singing.

DURING THE WORKSHOP, WE WILL GET FAMILIAR WITH DIFFERENT KINDS OF SHAMANISM, AMONG OTHERS:

SHAMANISM IN BUDDHISM AND HINDUISM (THE ART OF LUCID DREAMING RITUALS)

The first known textual description of lucid dreaming dates to before 1000 BCE from the Upanishads, the Hindu oral tradition of spiritual lessons, philosophy and proverbs. The Vigyan Bhairav Tantra is another ancient Hindu tract that describe show best to direct consciousness within the dream and vision states of sleep. In the early centuries, Indian influence spread to the mountainous region of Tibet, where the animistic tradition of Bonpo maintains that lucid dreaming has been used in their meditations for over 12000 years.

EXPERIENCES:

• NIAZA Lucid Dreaming by Music (Hinduism)
• Drumming Ceremony & Method (Tibetan & Native American Methods )

MEXICA & TIBETAN SHAMANISM (The Art of DIVINATION)

The desire to know the future, to seek answers to questions both spoken and those left unsaid, is a deep-seated human instinct. In evolutionary terms, its origins may lie in the quest for survival itself, in the need to be healed, and in the necessity of effectively fulfilling the social and economic obligations of life such as the planting of fields and harvesting and so on. The human propensity to look into the future, and to try to see what it holds in store for us, might be one of the many psychological features that distinguish humans from other animals.

EXPERIENCES:

• The Smoked Mirrow Ceremony & Method (Mexican Ritual) the art of readingthe Shadow & the Light
• Blah & The Tibetan Pulsing Ceremony & Method (Tibetan Method tointerpret the Life´s Journey)

EGYPTIAN SHAMANISM (The Vessels & Perfume Maceration)

MEXICAN SHAMANISM - TEMAZCAL (Sweat Lodge) Experience

In almost all the cultures across the world the sweat lodge or the bath house has been arite to connect, to heal, to transform, or a rite of passage. For our experience we will frame it within the ancient nahualt tradition of human destiny rite on the Temazcal. Temazcal Tetl=stone, Mazitli=hot; Calli=house.

The destiny circle is a passage of rite to connect us to the micro-cosmos of the Temazcal, become the temazcal cosmogony to connect to the macro- cosmos. This rite awakes the divine memory of you as a son or daughter of mother earth Tlazolteotl and father universe tehuatl. And this where Tantra comes alive in this tradition, El Atlachino lliconvoca a Ometeotl for the union of the contraries that will come together within the womb of mother earth and the shraman to provide the rite. The tonal (life force energy) will be called by the copal and the offerings to the 4 corners. And we will be appointed with responsibilities within this rite besides our own process. You will become part of the circle, part of the supranatura.

We will be experiencing from this point on five stages and 4 doors or Caltens to encounter with the written destiny of each one of us. In each Caltec we will encounter with 4 elementals of the SupraNatura. Each one will give us information to burn out what we do not need or things that we want to transform from all the set time line of our beings in this cosmos.
