Instructions
Step 1
Modern shamans do not travel to cities and do not give press conferences. Their way of life has remained unchanged for hundreds of years. Therefore, if you need to meet a shaman, plan a trip to Siberia, Mexico, South America or Africa. You can combine this meeting with a vacation and make yourself an interesting adventure.
Step 2
When you arrive at your destination, your best bet is to make a good impression on the locals. It is advisable to know a few words in their language to explain to them what you are looking for in their places. Do not hope that the inhabitants of a remote village will speak international English. It is also worth inquiring in advance about the peculiarities of the culture of people living in the area where you are heading. For example, if Mexicans do not like Americans, at the beginning of your acquaintance it is worth saying that you are Russian, since all whites are automatically considered Americans.
Step 3
Some excursion programs include meetings with shamans. Such an action looks more like a theatrical performance than a meeting with the secret. However, if you just wanted to see exotic shamans, go to such a meeting. For example, you can see the communication of a shaman with spirits near the city of Kyzyl, which is located on the Yenisei.
Step 4
If you want to have a conversation with a shaman, find yourself a local guide and go in search of him. Do not forget to thank the person who will guide you to the shaman's dwelling. Offer him to take money, and if he refuses - water, hunting matches and other things that a person living far from civilization may need.
Step 5
The shaman does not have to agree to meet with you. Usually they choose people according to criteria they know only. If you meet with a shaman, behave with dignity and respect the religion that he professes. If you happen to be present at any magical ritual, follow all the requirements. By showing your respectful attitude towards the shaman and his people, you will receive attention to your person as well.
