SHAMANIC TRADITION
Abstract
The current essay is an attempt to explore the idea of shamanism from an anthropological
context. Shamanic traditions have persisted in native and indigenous cultures since the dawn of
civilization. The most significant aspect of shamanic tradition is its worldview, which despite the
practices and rituals varying from one region to another, share a common belief of spiritualism
and animism, attributing a supreme place to nature. Thus, it becomes a universal culture among
natives and indigenous people, and still has an appeal to the modern societies. The essay,
therefore makes an attempt to identify the value and importance of shamanic traditions. In this
regard, it also explores the native American Indian Traditions to show how the particular culture
shares the universal view of shamanism.
