Shamanism in Nepal is being practiced for a long time which coincides importantly with the religious aspects. Offered as a 1-week introduction to Nepal Shamanism, Shamanism Tour In Nepal will allow students to gain a better understanding of Shamanistic beliefs and traditions. Students will be put on an individual program within a group of max 6 people with the purpose of bringing western students together with Himalayan shamans, both to preserve this priceless ancient knowledge, shamanism religion, shamanic practices, shamanic ritual, shamanic art, and to bring the practice and shamanic healing techniques to the western world.
Western students on this one-week introductory program of ‘Shamanism Tour In Nepal’ will observe ancient shamanic ceremonies in which the costumed shaman, aided by traditional drumbeats and dance, travel to seek the deities and spirits who assist in the healing work to be done. The course begins in the outskirts of beautiful Kathmandu valley and includes short excursions to shrines and to nature for outdoor experiences which are as equally important as the knowledge that students acquire in the classroom.
