The wild field.

Shamanism is a species wide practice. No one group owns or has privilege to engage with the forces of the earth and the cosmos exclusively. No one owns, death, magic, healing, illumination. We have been shamanic longer than we have been "civilized" and cross cultural pollination has been going on for ages as we continue to do so now. We are natural born for wonder and knowledge. There is an investment by certain intellectuals to be unloving towards folks who practice this path without the credentials they think are required for validation in communing with the earth and supra sensible dimensions. Hilarious. There are all kinds of "concepts" out there that move beyond what these kinds of thinkers offer. Here are a few shamanic concepts : Heterotopia, Immanence, Inter-civilizational Dialogue, hybridity, geophilosophy, rhizome. These concepts offer novel ways to situate subjectivity, ecology, politics and the cosmic. Even with the aforementioned horizons the live wild goes on. Folks who attempt to restrict what genuine shamanic practices are have an agenda that, while admirable in attempting to protect certain groups from the perpetual predation humans inflict on each other and other sentient beings, nevertheless, miss the ontology of what controlled transcendence is pointing to.
