Hi there!
You are listening to the Schapera Show, and I am Neil, bringing you reports of my Shamanic Journeys to the Spirit Realm, and the guidance that the benevolent Spirits give us.
I recently returned from a wonderful Journey to Africa, and this inspired me to talk today, about The Importance and Significance of Animals in Shamanism
Shamanism is probably the oldest Spiritual practice (at least 40,000 years old), and is deeply rooted in animism—the understanding, through experience, that all things, including rocks, plants, and animals, possess a Spiritual essence.
Across all Shamanic cultures and traditions, animals play a vital role in Shamanic practices and understandings, serving as Teachers, protectors, and sources of wisdom. Whether in Native American, Siberian, South American, or African Shamanic traditions, animals are highly revered for their Spiritual significance and their ability to connect humans with the higher Spiritual Realms.
Animism is the understanding that all things—so called “living” and “nonliving”—possess a Spiritual essence or consciousness. This worldview is especially prominent in indigenous Spiritual traditions and plays a central role in Shamanism.
In the context of Shamanism, animism means: Nature is alive and interconnected: Mountains, rivers, trees, animals, and even weather patterns are seen as beings with Spirits rather than inanimate objects.
