WHY SHAMANISM????
WHY SHAMANISM????
First thing first, the shamanism that u would google/search/wikipedia it. I'm not following those ideas. What I'm following from is very cliche, because is from the game. Warcraft from the Blizzard company(FOR DA HORDE GAMERS!) So from there anything you've read is an idea/concept I've always follow*plus it does link to some values in dhamma so look out! ;)*
Shamans practice the art or preserving the balance of Mother Nature, when they help the spirits of the elements, they help balancing Nature.They also have a role of telling stories to the younglings, using their skills to perform illusion.
(I bet you're not reading it >=D)

Here's a Story from One of the Lore of Warcraft.
An Alliance first Shaman,Farseer Nobundo was once a great Vindicator(Paladin) . A Strong and Passionate Draenei* (see water reflection) after being the victim of a siege from the corrupted Orcs. He became deform from an explosion of foul gas and lost his Holy power. Those who are infected banish them and named them Broken ones.
Many those who are affected like him are devolving further into madness and became suicidal or becoming the lost ones.Every day Nobundo would walk to the peak of a mountain and sit, praying, hoping, to somehow regain his mastery over the Light and that his nightmares would finally end.
In the end, his prayer was answered. But it wasn't the Light or a heavenly order, it was the Wind that whispering to his call.
So, in my personal opinion it teaches us that do not look into the past too much expect to go back as once what you are. The thing that will never change in this world is the word itself CHANGE.
Hence when i started playing World of Warcraft,the most addictive MMORPG the class Shamans is my 2nd most played in the game and it even in the end i'm in a very powerful guild in the realm. I wanted to name Erutan because of Nature and the race i was is called Tauren so i wanted to make a third anagram in it, but end up with Erutanor The Tauren Shaman*just look at the header*.
Shamans are spiritual visionaries of tribes and clans. These gifted healers can see into the world of spirits and communicate with creatures invisible to eyes of normal beings. They are beset by visions of the future and use their sight to guide their people through troubled times. Although the shaman may seem wise and serene at first glance, he is a formidable foe; and when angered, his wrath is as fierce as those who have a connection to Spirits and Nature.
