Jesus and Buddha were both Natural Shamans: This is a good place to start

 Seeing Jesus as the "only son of God" was a psychological way to prevent anyone else from being a son or a daughter of God too for Kings and Queens and emperors who often saw themselves as Sons and Daughters of God with Divine Authority. This was always common everywhere on earth since before the Time of Christ by the way.

So, when people elevate Jesus as "The Only Son of God" then it is harmful to all of humanity because it prevents other people from being Sons and Daughters of God too like Christ.

One of the statements attributed to Christ is: "Even greater things than these shall ye do."

Which makes complete sense now in the world of scientific advances and inventions and psychological and political evolution that we have seen Since Christ was alive in a body here on earth.

But, the title is: "Jesus and Buddha were Shamans"

My first course in Anthropology at Palomar College in around 1971 defined a shaman like this:

"Someone (male or female) who has psychologically died but their body still lives and because of this they live in both the world of the living and the world of the dead and are often able to heal people because of living in both worlds at the same time."

So, in order to become a shaman you have to have already died psychologically. So, people who have had traumatic events often become shamans both male and female. So, a medical trauma or a war trauma or other traumatic event often creates people into natural shamans.

When I first read this definition I realized this was also why I was different than most people because I too am a natural shaman who lives in both the world of the living and the world of the dead too.

My first experience as I lay dying at age 2 from whooping cough was my grandmother singing "Hark the Herald Angels Sing" and bringing down the Archangels starting with Archangel Michael to heal me. So, this likely was how I became a natural shaman among other things I experienced during my life when they healed me and I wanted to travel with them which eventually led to me being given the gift of Soul Travel when I was 20 years old.
