The word sar means head, both literally and in the sense of principal or chief. The
combination sarman would thus mean the chief repository of the tradition...”
“And still another possible meaning of the word sarman is... literally, those whose
heads have been purified.” 428
Those whose heads have been purified! What an interesting idea!
The central theme of Shamanism is the “ascent to the sky” and/or the “descent”
to the underworld. In the former, the practitioner experiences Ecstasy, in the latter,
he battles demons that threaten the well being of humanity. There are studies that
suggest evidence of the earliest practices is in the cave paintings of Lascaux with
the many representations of the bird, the tutelary spirits, and the ecstatic
experience (ca. 25,000 BC). Animal skulls and bones found in the sites of the
European Paleolithic period (before 50,000 - ca. 30,000 BC) have been interpreted
as evidence of Shamanic practice.
The “ecstatic experience” is the primary phenomenon of Shamanism, and it is
this ecstasy that can be seen as the act of merging with the celestial beings.
Merging results in Forced Oscillation that changes Frequency. Continued
interaction with Celestial beings is a form of Frequency Resonance Vibration.

that you are us in the future and that you are moving this way to merge with us.
A: Yes.
Q: (L) As we measure time, how far in the future are you us?
A: Indeterminate as you measure time. [...] What is “future”, anyway?
Q: (L) The future is simultaneous events, just different locales in space/time,
just a different focus of consciousness, is that correct?
A: Yes, so if that is true, why try to apply linear thinking here, you see, we are
merging with you right now!
The idea that there was a time when man was directly in contact with the
Celestial Beings is at the root of the myths of the Golden Age that have been
redacted to the Grail stories of the 11th and 12th centuries. During this
paradisiacal time, it is suggested that communications between heaven and earth
were easy and accessible to everyone. Myths tell us of a time when the “gods
withdrew” from mankind. As a result of some “happening”, i.e. “The Fall”, the
communications were broken off and the Celestial Beings withdrew to the highest
heavens.
But, the myths also tell us that there were still those certain people who were
able to “ascend” and commune with the gods on the behalf of their tribe or family.
Through them, contact was maintained with the “guiding spirits” of the group. The
