Discover the Shaman's Path to Empowerment, Healing, and Personal and Global Transformation Throughout human history, the shaman's purpose has been to serve their community. Traditionally, shamans were healers, seekers of truth, peacemakers, and keepers of wisdom. Most of all, shamans were the ones who could see beyond our physical world into the world of spirit-the true ground of reality. Today, our community is global. Never before have we been more aware of our interdependence and connection-with each other and with the natural world. Is it any wonder shamanism-the oldest spiritual tradition-is now on the rise?
