As much as most of us are trying to ignore, the cosmos is growing faster and faster everyday leaving us behind if we don't adjust. But our need for adjustment, even though it gives us the wonders of the progress, leaves us blind to the beauty of things that lure our souls.
Habits tend to control people's daily lives like a mandatory requirement for security. No spiritual matters fit into our already overcrowded schedule, where masterpieces of musicians, poets and movie makers seem pointless.
Rich in ideas, but poor in expressing them we fail to remember that we don't live alone and we need to communicate with others to give a reference value to our thoughts. People can be as similar as they are different and perceive things through their own scale of value, but art is universal. Artists can make similar words, similar musical notes and similar images to send infinity of messages as long as they find the right key to combine them. Their works express a synthesis of their observation of the world, transforming ideas and thoughts most of us had into messages that can be interpreted by generation after generation for eternity.
Healing the soul is one of the reasons that art exists, a mean of touching this invisible psyche that can be compared only with the way shamanism does for years. Without claiming that the wounds of the body are mild, usually the pain of the soul is fierce and less easy to cure. The 'medicine' of the soul is a 'science' that shamanism has explored for years without exhaustion. An interesting guide on shamanism is the work of Lujan Matus.
The soul is a complicated thing that is caught in the turmoil of every day's feelings from the profane ones up to the most sacred ones. Its journey is done through all the mundane sentiments from the labyrinth of the hell that will finally end beyond the sky. Picture all the words, all the sounds and all the images of this journey like a producer is doing with a movie and the beauty and meaning of art will enlighten you.
To improve your comprehension of shamanism you can refer to <a href="http://theheavystuff.com/?p=129">Lujan Matus</a> work.
