Mysticism and Shamanism of the Medicine Doctors of Africa

During the African Apartheid, Black and White people's lives were completely separated, and so was their medicine. The Medicine Doctor, The Sangoma (Zulu name for Shaman), was accepted and used by half the population while the other half of the population thought it was nonsense. Now, the Sangoma is recognized by the Government of Africa as official healers and their craft as a certified healing modality. The mysticism and healing paradigm of Africa will be explored and experienced through my guest today, Lionel Friedberg, who was born and grew up in South Africa. His new book, 'Forever In My Veins', brings us on his journey of how being a filmmaker led him to the mysterious world of the African Shaman, how they predicted his life and in the end, how they saved his life. Our lives, the world and the cosmos are stranger and more wonderful than we can ever imagine.
