I've heard this notion that, upon initiation into their craft, shamans of Some Unnamed Culture experience a vision quest where they are taken outside of themselves to watch as their body is devoured by a pack of wild animals. Thing is, I don't know where this story comes from, or even if it's true - does anyone have any sources to indicate tribes, cultures or systems where this idea is utilised or originated?
