This belt belonged
to someone who was quite serious about his Shamanic calling.
Clearly a lot of personal and ritual attention was put into its
creation. The red cloth, the cowries and boar's tusk
,those fascinating desiccated weasels, and wild Himalayan deer
horns its a
stunning and beautiful conglomeration of ritual power objects.
There are literally thousands of Shamans in Nepal - its a
tradition that remains vigorous and popular despite the constant
encroachment of modernity and the Westernized "mono-culture"
that is slowly but seemingly surely, enveloping the whole
planet. In many parts of Nepal there are no doctors so the
shaman is the healer of all that ails the people - be the
problem physical, mental, or spiritual in nature.
