Mask Makers Web

This is an encyclopedia on mythology, folklore, legends, and more. It contains over 5700 definitions of gods and goddesses, supernatural beings and legendary creatures and monsters from all over the world. This is by no means a complete work and I try to update it frequently by adding new articles and expanding or revising existing articles. However, since this is rather a lot of work for one man to do, I welcome contributions; either more information on existing articles or completely new ones. You can find more information about contributing here.

Site in Danish Shamanisme er nok den ?ldste spirituelle oplevelsesform vi kender. Afbilleder af mennesker maskerede i dyreham fundet i hulemalerier, mere end antyder at vi allerede 10-15.000 ?r f?r vor tidsregning kan registrere et shamanistisk verdensbillede. Shamanisme er den ?ldgamle kunst, at berejse andre omr?der af virkeligheden end den almindelige. Til forskel fra meditation der er stilhedens kunst, benytter shamanismen sig af kraften fra trommer , raslere eller sang. Lyden benyttes som en ekstra drivkraft til bev?gelse i andre eksistensomr?der. Shamanen rejser til andre virkeligheder for at hente r?d, kraft eller information om specielle forhold. Alle shamanistiske kulturer er lokalt farvede. Derfor er den form for shamanisme, der har udviklet sig den vestlige verdens bysamfund - byshamanisme. Det g?r den hverken bedre eller ringere end traditionel indigen traditionel shamanisme. Kun den personlige indsigt og dygtighed er afg?rende i sp?rgsm?let om ringere eller bedre. Vi er f?dt multidimensionale, m?ske bruger vi ikke denne evne, der p? naturlig vis g?r os i stand til at opleve andre aspekter af virkeligheden, men evnen har alle. Shamanens vej er uddannelsen af denne evne p? samvittighedsfuld og grundig vis.

The mythology of the Haida, like that of other tribes on the central and northern coast, is based on the epic cycle of stories about the Raven and his various exploits. The Raven is truly a trickster who liberates humankind from a clamshell, then in one story sets the universe in order, only to threaten it with chaos in the next. The Raven is the most greedy, mischievous and lecherous creature imaginable, but almost without meaning to, teaches humans the arts of living a good life.

There are numerous forms of mysticism. The majestic grandeur of nature evoked an intuitive awe in man and a feeling of unity. Some time in history members of the homo sapiens species began directing their attention inside themselves as they received indications of a magical and spiritual nature. In early cultures groups formed around a person who seemed through some strange play of nature be possessed with extraordinary powers and insights. Some call them medicine man, or shamans. In modern culture mysticism is seen as the practice of communion and adoration of man of his divine nature. It takes all forms, though. On this page an introduction to Javanese mysticism, the origins of which little is known as its early adherents committed little to writing.

Ecstasy is a real human need... a state of consciousness beyond concept. And if it does not come through...in positive ways... it's going to come out in violence.
