Does suffering make you a better person?
In this episode of @thehumanupgradepodcast , you’ll find out about the relevance of shamanism in a modern world and why high performers are turning toward shamanic practices to get ahead.
The show’s guest, Manvir Singh, Ph.D., is an anthropologist at the Institute for Advanced Study in Toulouse, France. He studies universal or near-universal cultural practices, including music, shamanism, and witchcraft. For the past seven years, he’s conducted ethnographic fieldwork in Indonesia.
This conversation gets into:
- shamanism in general
- the cultural significance of shamans
- how shamanic practices have made their way into modern culture
- why humans think they need shamans—or similar “magic” or “other” beings
