"Things You Wouldn't Know If We Didn't Blog Intermittently."
Mongolian shaman wearing a ritual gown and holding a drum with the image of a spirit helper, c. 1909.
I'm reading a historical fantasy that involves characters like this. No wonder everyone's afraid of them.
Are those dreds?
very nice picture, ...a book about this: Shamanism: Archaic Techniques of Ecstasy by mircea eliade.
To REALLY get to know these people, read Mickey Hart's "Drumming at The Edge of Magic."

Amazing picture. You can see his burden, look again, he's here alright, but he's also many other places, working. Take a second look at his stare, he is looking not only at something, but throught it as well. This is a gift. Thanks
