Hi everybody! Today we are talking to HeatherAsh Amara about Toltec and Shamanism.
Hi HeatherAsh! Hi!
Would you please tell us more about what does the word Toltec mean to you?
Toltecs were a group of people that came together in South and Central Mexico. So, the people
know about the Aztecs and the Mayans. The Toltecs were a group that consciously chose
to explore together and the word Toltec means are the Artist of the Spirit. The most well-known
Toltec teacher we can say is Don Miguel Ruiz, but also lot of people know about the Toltec
through one of the first books that came out around Toltecs Shamanism, which is Carlos
Castaneda and Don Juan and those teachings. There�s many different types of Toltec Shamanism,
but the umbrella of Toltec is really about taking radical responsibility we can say,
for our lives. That we are the artist of our life, that we�re creating our life through
our perceptions. And that by using our awareness, we can begin to transform the old agreements
and beliefs that are causing us to suffer or limit ourselves. And Shamanism is practice
all around the world many, many different cultures. And what a Shaman is, it�s a person
who has the ability to go between the physical realm and the spiritual realm. And they�re
considered bridge people. They travel to the spiritual realm to gather information, to
get healing, to get medicine, and then to bring it back to their community. And I feel
like it's really important for us in modern day world to learn about different Shamanic
techniques and practices because the tools that Shamans use are so very, very important
for us today. So let's go a little bit deeper. And what
I want to ask about is Toltec wisdom. Toltec wisdom is the deep knowing that each
of us has of being artists of our lives. So, really who's the expert on our life is us!
So when we can back to our wisdom, what we�re coming back to is our choice. And I really
think about Toltec wisdom is about getting free. Getting free on the inside. There's
so many beliefs and agreements that we make when we are younger. For example, if you were
in car and you were a little kid and you�re singing really loud and you�re so happy
to be singing the song and your parents says, �Stop singing, stop singing right now!�
You might immediately make an agreement "Oh! I can't sing or I have a bad voice." But maybe
your parent was just trying to figure out where the ambulance was coming from, or they�re
getting a migraine. And even though they kept asking you please keep singing, you created
this agreement. And what you're doing is starting to create a whole reality based on something
that�s not even true. And we do this all the time. And so as adult, if you can imagine
this person, their friends come and say, �You�re 21, it�s your birthday, awesome, were going
to karaoke, your singing first!� What would their reaction be? They�d be like, �No,
I don't sing.� And so what Toltec wisdom teaches us is that using our awareness, we
can begin to explore and get curious about what beliefs might be beholding from the past
that aren�t serving us now. And it doesn�t mean you�re going to remember the exact
situation of like, when I was 4 I made the belief of that I couldn�t sing. You probably
will never remember that particular incident. But you can use your life to see where do
you have reactions, where do you close, where do you go into fear. And then say where's
the belief, what agreement might I be holding. And that then is the beginning of unwinding
that old belief so we can come back to freedom. So we come back to absolute choice rather
than being dictated from our past. Well, that�s really what Shamanism is, when
spiritual grace comes together, that�s using those tools together.
Yes, exactly. And Shamanism is a part of spirituality. It�s a type of spirituality that really
connects us to the earth, to the cycles, to dreaming - all of these things are very important
within Shamanism and also for spiritual growth. And as we use these different tools, as we
learn to capture our own attention, as we learn to begin to what�s called stock, which
is to begin to track where our beliefs and agreement are, then we begin to recognize
who we want to be. And not just think about it but actually start to live it. It�s very
exciting. That's beautiful. And so as a spiritual shamanic
beginner, where would someone start? What would be the Shamanic 101 that you would start
somebody in this kind of a path? I would start someone in very simply starting
to follow the seasons and the moons cycles. So the sun cycles and the moon cycles. And
why that�s important is that it brings us into touch with nature, which is about beginnings
and endings. And we tend to live from �I have to do this, and this, and this, and then
this will happen.� And the truth is everything is about beginnings and endings, and when
we learn to honor all of them, and that�s what Shamans do, Shamans work with the cycles
of nature. They know that sometimes we must honor the end of something and the letting
go process. And that is beauty as much as the beginnings are. So that�s a great place
to start. And another place is to begin to practice visioning and dreaming, to pay more
attention to dreaming, not only to dreaming at night but also dreaming during the day.
The places where you have insights or inspiration, or a sudden knowing. Start to track and listen
to those places of none ordinary reality when you�re more in a dream space and pay attention
to what those are. And often much insight and healing can come from that deep listening.
Thank you HeatherAsh! Thank you.
