Shamanism has been practised among communities all over the world for
millennia, and continues to survive today in both modern and
traditional forms. During its long evolution, it has migrated from
Siberia, Aboriginal Australia, Northern Europe and South America to
become a core part of western New Age and rave culture as well as
popular mythology. Its place within modernity is at once familiar and
alien, exemplary and uneasy ---- Graham Harvey

hi all

this is my second posting. i know its kinda late and i do apologise. i
have put up the research material and a few pages of the graphic novel
on my site. you can visit it here

www.etattoo7.com/sarai/home.html

my research is about the shamans that live in gangtok city. a study of
the shaman status with the changing cultures and modernisation. i
follow four shamans, interview them at various stages and video the
interview, some transcriptions of the interviews can be found on the
above link. the final product is intended to be a graphic novel and
some layouts can also be viewed at the above link.

so please visit. comments, suggestions welcome.

again sorry for delay

cheers
