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.
I will be putting this blog on hold for awhile. I have been busy with promoting my book and writing my new one...but stay posted on The Broken Bokken Blog for updates.
Thanks,
Shinzen
