Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Shamanic Traditions of the InuitSpiritual Practices of the Arctic Circle(Ancient times to present)By Shakti Beauregard???In the vast frozen darkness of the Arctic winter, where temperatures could kill an unprotected human in minutes, the shamans kept their people alive.Not through technology alone-though the Inuit mastered survival at the edge of the habitable world-but through journeys into invisible realms where powerful spirits controlled the availability of game, the safety of travelers, and the fate of souls after death. The angakkuq was the essential intermediary, the one who could see what others could not see, travel where others could not go, and negotiate with beings on whom every life depended.Shamanic Traditions of the Inuit opens a window into one of humanity's most sophisticated spiritual systems. Within these pages, you will descend to the undersea realm of Sedna, the Sea Woman, whose tangled hair held the sins of the community and whose anger meant starvation. You will witness the terrifying initiations that transformed ordinary people into vessels for the tuurngait-the helping spirits without whom no shaman could work. You will hear the drum that called spirits from the darkness and learn why missionaries sought to silence it.Drawing extensively on Knud Rasmussen's Fifth Thule Expedition-the most comprehensive documentation of Inuit shamanism ever recorded-as well as the foundational work of Boas, Merkur, and contemporary scholars, this volume preserves knowledge that was nearly lost to missionary suppression and colonial disruption.What did it mean to live in a world where every animal was a person who chose whether to be caught Where survival required not just skill but spiritual relationship Where the cosmos itself responded to human behavior The shamans who once journeyed through the spirit world are gone. But their wisdom echoes still-in elders' memories, in the revival of the drum, and in these pages, where the Arctic night remains populated with powers that modern humanity has forgotten how to perceive.???Part of the Lost Spiritual Paths series, an entire chronological history of the whole world's spirituality.
