The Call

Back in November of 2009 I had a series of synchronistic events happen that I recorded in my blog over at the Broken Bokken .... http://broken-bokken.blogspot.com/ See 'Shamans At Work'

These events led me to the world of Shamanism. To be frank with you, I had no interest in the subject until these events...and since then have been called into this interesting world.

I really don't consider myself a Shaman, but many of the hypnotic practices I have engaged in since the age of 16 are very similar to shamanic practices. So...in upcoming posts I will begin sharing my journeys as I conduct a series of past-life regressions...and maybe some future life progressions.

As Muso Soseki wrote, "for a person of Zen no limits exist."

Please join me as I explore the parameters of consensus and non-consensus reality. Please comment...and let the playful journey begin.

Many Blessings,
Shinzen

Blind Seer

I wasn't sure if I was going to post this one...not sure of it authenticity, but then I remember telling my clients that when your conscious mind starts questioning the regression, you're on the right track.

In my regression I was a Lakotah medicine man in the early 1800's.  I was sitting crosslegged by a roaring fire with dancers around me. My eyes were covered with mud wrapped in a band or bandana. I recieved the impression that I was a 'blind seer', whatever that means. It has many connotations for me. Not sure if I was blind or could only 'see' and have visions when blinded with mud.

During this ceremony I was laid on my back....and then I drifted away from the regression.

I think I am going to use more of  a self-guided script with my digital voice recorder. It helps me stay with the regression up through the death scene. I have been finding myself drifting away too easily to remember 'me'.

Hands palm to palm,
Shinzen

  1. Wow. So do you enter a state where minds of past, also in that state, merge?

    Or are these past you's?

    Of course from my perspective the one I has lived all lives. But there maybe some rebirth of little i through a number of lives too.

    Interesting mystery.

  2. Ta-Wan...in many ways I agree with you. I can enter many lives as I have lived them all...yet, there is a thread left over of a 'me', a trace that remains that I follow like a stream.
