Indeed it has added much to our knowledge. Since science, however, considers the development of human self-awareness as part of physical evolution, its probings mainly have been from a material vantage point. In spite of all the discoveries, therefore, the veil of mystery essentially has not been lifted from the origin and true nature of mind. (52 Reads) Read more...

With the aim of mapping "the relation between health, behaviour, and superstition surrounding Friday 13th in the United Kingdom," its authors compared the ratio of traffic volume to vehicular accidents on two different days, Friday the 6th and Friday the 13th, over a period of years.

The Golden Bough. 1922 - http://www.bartleby.com/196/170.html This view of totemism throws light on a class of religious rites of which no adequate explanation, so far as I am aware, has yet been offered. Amongst many savage tribes, especially such as are known to practice totemism, it is customary for lads at puberty to undergo certain initiatory rites, of which one of the commonest is a pretence of killing the lad and bringing him to life again. Such rites become intelligible if we suppose that their substance consists in extracting the youth’s soul in order to transfer it to his totem. For the extraction of his soul would naturally be supposed to kill the youth or at least to throw him into a death-like trance, which the savage hardly distinguishes from death. His recovery would then be attributed either to the gradual recovery of his system from the violent shock which it had received, or, more probably, to the infusion into him of fresh life drawn from the totem.

What is a Shaman? — Introduction<br />
I am using the word shaman because of its popularity: shamans have their own names for themselves<br />
depending on their background and location. I call myself kupua, which is a Hawaiian word for a shaman<br />
found among the traditions of Polynesia. A kupua focuses on the essence of a tool rather than it's ritual.<br />
There are many definitions of shamanism, but few mention the core of shamanistic belief that I learned<br />
from my teachers. Most definitions describe what shamans do rather than what shamans believe.<br />
Shamans use whatever tools they know that seem appropriate for the circumstances. A listing of these<br />
tools doesn't constitute a precise meaning of the limits and uniqueness of shamanism.<br />
