Schizophrenia and Shamanism

Of course I'm not the first person to see it like this :)

I just googled it and found:

This is just the tip of the iceberg.

I want to be free. I want to be free to read all of this and more and keep my goats and create the path forwards.

I believe the response for me is not to go and study this and get sucked into creating more research papers. The task is to create experience and form. The school of contemporary social shamanism. The Centre for Contemporary Social Ritual. Something like that.

The task is to create it!

Not alone...
