Descrição
Resumo:Shamanism presents a way of feeling, experiencing, and thinking about life, establishing another type of relationship with nature, far from utilitarianism and from commercial domination. It carries knowledge that reveals important and essential cosmoethical values for the sustainability of the planet, such as solidarity, sharing, cooperation and the idea of community. This knowledge confronts the rationalizing and pragmatic thinking that sees nature merely as raw material and a commodity, leading to an unsustainable exploration that exhausts the possibilities of rehabilitation of its cyclical processes. Shamans and indigenous people signal the need to maintain our cohesion as a common-unity, resuming the cosmovision which shares and lives along with the spirit of the forest. From this perspective, shamanism must also be understood as an anthropological reserve of thought, with the shaman being a catalyst for the forces of nature, a mediator between the world and men, walking along journeys that inspire us to think that it is possible to live in another way.
