An elder Page (shaman) deep in the Brazilian
Amazon said to a group of white folks...."We are all
shaman, Don't you think that just because I wear those
funny clothes and those colorful feathers on my head, I
am more powerful then you are. We are indigenous to
Mother Earth, no matter where we come from ."
The shaman, known as spiritual healer, medicine
person, paqo, curendero and other medicine names, is
common in all cultures of the Earth, known by many
different names, and is still called by Spirit today. The
word "shaman" is from the Tungus tribe in Siberia but
has become the accepted word to identify the healer
called by Spirit, for the healing of all peoples and
Earth Mother.
