"There is the material plane and there is the spiritual plane.
The two domains are never confused, not are they kept apart.
The mediator is the shaman,
and it is his ability to slip between spheres that allow for the maintenance of
the sacred balance,
the harmony of social, religious and political life.
The shaman is the one who swims in the mystic waters the rest of us would drown in"
(Joseph Campbell)
