Cybershamanism

 

Another text that I wrote to "Boa Estrela", a Portuguese magazine, from May 2022. The magazine has 14,500 copies per month.

In this texto, I will talk to you about cybershamanism, an uncommon name such as synchronicism or cybergnosticism, among other terms. You have certainly heard of shamanism (the magic and healing practices of our ancestors, still practiced today by some indigenous peoples).

The prefix “cyber” refers to the virtual and technological world; as people currently seek and share knowledge online, we can apply the prefix “cyber” to almost everything (cyber cult, cyber religion, cyber gnosis, cyber shamanism, etc.).

The cybershaman (adept of cybershamanism) uses the internet to expand and share knowledge about postmodern shamanism (or neo-shamanism), if we want to understand it that way. He sometimes resorts to technology, such as some software to meditate (binaural sounds, for example), visual elements to induce meditative states, NLP: Neurolinguistic Programming, among others.

 

Concept of cybershamanism

With the advancement of technology, information that was previously inaccessible is now easily accessible to all of us. Syncretisms arise between different esoteric strands, old expressions emerge with new modern terms, and everything adapts and progresses, challenging temporal concepts.

Cybershamanism progresses, evolves, and embraces new philosophies of thought such as the Theory of Simulationism (holographic universe, cosmoholography, and others).

I consider myself a cybershaman and I also like to synchronize various spiritual and magical concepts with quantum physics, for example, by correlating all things in a broader view. With my consciousness I seek knowledge in the Noosphere and add it to the cybersphere.

The cybershaman knows that by writing he shares knowledge and adds spiritual content in two worlds (in the Akasha, an ethereal informational field, through the thought-forms and energies emanating from his consciousness, and still in the cybernetic world that contains an ethereal counterpart, so to speak, where all internet users' minds are linked in resonance), consciousness is everywhere. When, in a few years, the sentient internet comes along, they will understand this aspect better.

Dear reader, formerly esoteric knowledge was accessible only to some magicians; it was difficult to have access to all books (some were forbidden). Today, with the internet, it is easy to have access to hidden knowledge (you just have to know how to look for it and separate useful information from less useful information). Anyone who has intuition and the gift of writing and sometimes channels messages spiritually is a type of mediumship, has this ever happened to you? But this is not always processed in the paper notebook. It often happens to the keyboard. The way he expresses his mediumship is the same, only the element changes.

 

Pay attention to synchronicities

The cybershaman does not exactly need a physical magical space (although he may have a temple, a hall or a forest where he practices rituals), but one of his main magical spaces is the internet.

The cybershaman knows how to create and propagate “spiritual memes” (or memeplexes) that are like visual ideas that propagate and live in everyone's minds (in a good way), whether on Facebook or Instagram. The reader has certainly already done this, sharing images with philosophical phrases (whether by Buddha, Osho or  Krishnamurti) is an example. However, some cybershamans create their own images and phrases. They have solid ideas and are not easily swayed by the ideas of others. No one will be able to superimpose their personal truth on that of the cybershaman, as the latter creates his own reality.

Knows how to ride the wave of probabilities and is aware of synchronicities.

When he has a déjavu, he is not surprised; he recognizes that he is reviewing something that he previously created with his mentalizations.

 

I say goodbye with some spiritual verses I wrote:

 

Cosmosis

God, or the Divinity, doesn't want your faith; he wants your trust. It doesn't matter much what you believe; what matters is what you do and whether you respect the divine law and your fellow man. Divinity does not want us to see it as something outside of ourselves, but rather as part of an indivisible whole.

(Sílvio Guerrinha, 2017)

 

Inner alchemy

Inner alchemy is transmuting self-defeating thoughts and mentally rewriting them, converting them into positive thoughts that strengthen us, thus transmuting your vibration.

(Sílvio Guerrinha, 2017)

 

Awakening

By accessing my Higher Self, I have access to all my parallel selves.

Past, presente, and future exist simultaneously; I am the sum of all my temporal parts.

I follow non-linearity; my essence is non-locality. When the Universe woke up, you also woke up, and existence emerged from the Quantum Void.
