Thank you.

So no doubt the Hinduism dharma is the oldest one

[@davelouie131]

Sankhya and Shamanism are older

[@AL_THOMAS_777]

You BET ! Me I recently realized that the Hindu culture is stunning 40.000 (!!!) years old ! And YES, that makes a difference . . .

[@davelouie131]

@@AL_THOMAS_777 I can’t put links but common sense should tell you Shamanism is the oldest spiritual practice since the time of modern humans while Sankhya is the 2nd oldest.

​@@davelouie131 common sense is not a thing. You are asking for it in the comments, which is exactly how it is always framed. Clearly it's not a thing. And you should explain instead of throwing this nonsense statement of common sense.

Does shamanism account for absolute truth and objective morality?.

[@dukemartinez7551]

Morality is not objective

[@cscutler]

@@dukemartinez7551 so its not universally objectively wrong to torture babies for personal pleasure?

[@dukemartinez7551]

@@cscutler oh yes yes like the Canaanites burning babies to Moloch. You see little one, not torturing babies is a universal moral code in the times and culture we live in today.

I got the impression that this guy was just rambling vaguely about how getting high on drugs or music/dance can help you see things differently.
No idea what it has to do with truth and morality.

[@felixstorey8023]

It is your opinion that it’s wrong. If someone was to enjoy doing it, then it shows it’s not objective.

[@xutsider]

what do shamans think of god

[@SK-zi3sr]

Depends on the culture

[@AliK-zz4ns]

As original Turkish person, Shamans believes only one tengri that means only one god
