Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" The shaman asked. "Have you written down your thoughts? Our senses are directed to the outside. When we put our thoughts on paper, we have taken what was inside and put it outside where we can perceive it. It's like a mirror. "
I was surprised he took a sudden interest in my psychology. I had just listened for 10 minutes to his stories on the "Spirit mountain" volcano.
He explained the hex that he accidentally performed at the Mayan sacred space on the volcano.
"You can choose to be a shaman on the light side or neutral. Some choose dark. Most choose neutral." It sounded like most of these so inclined people take the easy route of neutrality so as not to rock the boat.
Being a shaman of light was quite l challenge. It was about pushing back against abuses of power, and financial interests to the extent of being known as the crazy one.
I recognized what he was describing as those few people who are unafraid to speak truth to power, unafraid of losing anything because of the humble life they already live.
