I listened to it last night and it got me really psyched (a very apt bit of slang!).

It's really refreshing to see someone who moves beyond the seemingly endless recycling of assumptions relating to Jung, shamanism, drugs. Definitely one for the watch list.

Jan Irvin also promotes serious researchers into 'shamanism' to also be aware of the book 'Dark Shamans' (Jan will be interviewing Steve Beyer in the near future at Gnostic podcasts)--It can be very chilling And looking into this has personally inspired my research, and made me ask questions about, example, how we view psychedelics in this light. I critically look at oriental belief systems--which are mostly anti-psychedelic (at least publically), as I do Judaic Christian Islamic, Magic, and shamanistic. I think this questioning is very important so as to encourage independent visions, insights O listened to the interview with Steve Beyer which I very much enjoyed, and because it didn’t talk about ‘shamanism’ with the common European romantic style, but –if I remember right–talked about the shamanistic cultures of the Upper Amazon as having a negative worldview where they view people as meaning to do harm, and liken this to the panther–predatory.
