The Shamanism refers to a class of traditional beliefs and practices similar to animism that ensure the ability to diagnose and cure human suffering. A second group of anthropologists discussed the term shamanism, saying it is a word for a specific cultural institution, to include any healer of any traditional society, it produces a false uniformity between these cultures and creates the misleading idea of the existence of a religion before all others. Others accuse them of being unable to recognize the commonalities between the various traditional societies. Shamanism is based on the premise that the visible world is pervaded by invisible forces and spirits of parallel dimensions that coexist simultaneously with ours, affecting all the manifestations of life. In contrast to animism, in which every member of society involved the practice, shamanism requires specialized knowledge or skills. There are many variations of shamanism in the world; the following are shared by all forms of shamanism beliefs: 1 -there clarify that comes from shamanism "shaman", who is typical of eastern Siberia, though, as Mircea Eliade notes in his attempt to make a general history shamanism, there are a variety of shamans scattered around the world, and characterizes them being medical and spiritual guides. Shamanism is based on the premise that the visible world is pervaded by invisible forces or spirits that affect the lives of the living. Unlike organized religions such as animism or animatism that are led by pastors and that all members of a society practice, shamanism requires individualized knowledge and special abilities. Shamans act outside established religions, and traditionally act alone. Shamans can come together in associations, as have practitioners Tantric Indians. According to Kehoe, Eliade Shamanism is an invention synthesized from various sources unsupported by any direct research. Believes that what he and other scholars define as characteristic of shamanism, trances, chants, communication with spirits, cures, are practices that exist in shamanic cultures do not like some Judeo-Christian rituals. In your opinion, they are typical of many cultures that use them, and you can not include in a religion -call shamanism. Therefore, it rejects that shamanism is an ancient surviving religion of Palaeolithic. This may not only reveal the visions animist hiding behind shamanism, but also express their relevance to the recent world where ecological problems do paradigms valid balance and protection. Just as shamanism itself, music and songs related to it in various cultures are diverse, far from being similar. In some cultures and in some cases, some songs related to shamanism also try to imitate natural sounds, sometimes through onomatopoeia. Shamanism is considered by some to be the history of all organized religions, since it was born before the Neolithic. The pagan Greek was influenced by shamanism, as reflected in the stories of Tantalus, Prometheus, Medea and Calipso among others, as well as the mysteries, like those of Eleusis. Some of the shamanic practices of the Greek religion were copied later by religion of Romans. Today, shamanism survives mainly in indigenous peoples. His practice continues in the tundras, jungles, deserts and other rural areas, and also in cities, towns, suburbs, and villages around the world. It is particularly widespread in Africa, and also in South America, where there is called "shamanism mestizo ". Although shamanism had a great tradition in Europe before the advent of monotheism, remained as a traditional organized religion only in Mari-El and Udmurtia, two semi-autonomous provinces of Russia. Siberia is a center of shamanism, inhabited by many different peoples. Many of the people who populate the Urals and Altai, have maintained these practices alive until modern times. Many of the ethnographic sources have been collected from people. Many groups of hunters and breeders of reindeer practiced shamanism as a living tradition also in modern times, especially those who have lived isolated until recent times as naganasan. Shamanism is still practiced in South Korea, where the role of women represent shaman calls mudang, while few men are known as baksoo mudang. Both are usually members of lower classes. There is a great influence on the shamanic religion of Bon central Asia, and in Buddhism Tibetan ; Buddhism became popular among Tibetan shamans, Mongols, and Manchus in the early eighth century.
