Called to heal. African shaman healers

This book is about African folk healers. The author reveals a whole layer of ancient art of healing of the natives of the Black Continent. In a series of interviews with masters working in the traditions of shamanistic healing, a gallery of unique portraits unfolds in front of the reader. Each of these people was once elected and called for the fulfillment of a healing mission. Based on a spiritual connection with the ancestors, these healers successfully diagnose diseases, prescribe and treat with traditional means - with healing rites to special plant drugs - and provide the patient with reliable spiritual support. African folk healers enjoy great authority in society, and even professional doctors who have received a European education express their willingness to exchange experience with these carriers of the richest ancient tradition
