Korean Shamanism

Published: March 10, 2022, 3:29 p.m.

My faith lies with Korean Shamanism which is combination of indigenous Korean folk shamanic practice, Chinese Taoism and Buddhism.   We don't have a church to go to. The basis of our faith is ancestral worship.  We have a temple at home with an offering table overlooking a Tanka pantheon of gods.  There is an origin story too plus a destination.  The best thing about my faith is I don't need to answer to anyone else but the gods and spirits.  Some Christians might see our folk practice as "devil worshiper" and I'll tell them "Yeah keep thinking that way LOL".  As a person with Tourettes ADHD and Bipolar I find my Shamanic faith very inclusive of being human. It's not the religion but it's about the people.  In this Episode I will share some experience in how I became a practitioner of Korean Shamanism.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/fabulously-tourette/support
