Do you believe the Spirit World exists ??? (167)
Shamanism ( /'???m?n/ shah-m?n or /'?e?m?n/ shay-m?n) is a term used in a variety of anthropological, historical and popular contexts to refer to certain magico-religious practices that involve a practitioner reaching altered states of consciousness in order to encounter and interact with the spirit world. A shaman is a person regarded as having access to, and influence in, the world of benevolent and malevolent spirits, who typically enters a trance state during a ritual, and practices divination and healing.

No I don't because there is no verifiable proof or evidence of such.
I did believe until I was no longer under the influence of my parents or the Church. I now believe that the definitive truth of reality is to be found in the works of Darwin, Einstein and Hawkins. This is an ongoing quest for me.

According to my way of reasoning,there must be in an existence : Mind & Matter,everything else is just pure reflexion of those two realities.

Thank you Gleneagle .... But I thinking of our guides that are said to be at our side ...
I understand where you coming from ... I was born into a Hindu home .. My parents weren't very religious though ... But in my 20's I decided on my own to find out more about Hinduism .... Then I got married to a Christian guy who had a staunch Christian family .... And they practically bible bashed me into Christianity ... But my marriage only lasted a few years ... And when I got divorced I didn't want to stay a Christian as I didn't know much.. And I didn't want to go back to Hinduism as I hadn't learnt everything .. Then my dad died soon after and it left me very depressed ... And someone told me to read the book "journey of the souls" and it gave me a different view on life an spirituality ..... Spirituality doesn't always mean religion .....

spiritualists mostly arent governed by any religion.. they do however study a lot of theories and ideas and form their own path.
when practising a faith takes over a life instead of a life absorbed and guided by its teachings, is when it makes it more about obedience than understanding.
sometimes i think people just have to keep saying it over and over to believe it.
i lived with a spiritual man for 12 years..a spiritual medium as such and ive read and listened to many theories on the subject.
and yes..the spirit world exists..for those who want it to.
the ones who dont..it doesnt need to.

Hi AgentAjax ... Thank you for your comment .... So have you ever tried it not being pissed off for eternity but tried to take your consciousness beyond your body ? Like meditation for instance?

My childhood faith (spiritualism) is with me daily, like any religion.
I believe and act upon it and always try to do the same as any other religion abides me to do.
My Christian daughter now understands my faith and she gives me grace.
Out of body experiences, astral projection is all part of the higher knowledge of enhancement given at birth but some, do not understand or get it.
JMHO
