    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 The musok, or Korean shaman, is a tradition that has been practiced for more than forty thousand years. It is a form of communication with the spirit world, and it is still practiced today.

    #2 Musok is a set of disparate religious or superstitious practices based in the belief of a natural world animated by spirits, and aimed at bridging between those spirits and living human beings. It is very practical, as it is used to solve people’s problems via communication with the spirit world.

    #3 Musok is considered feminine in nature, and this is largely due to the fact that most practitioners are women. It has become a very profitable business, and many musok-in are drawn to it by the fact that it has become a very profitable business.

    #4 The process of becoming a musok-in can start in two ways. The first is seseupmu, the inheritance of shaman status from one’s family, with an older relative conferring the status on a younger one. The second is gangshinmu, when a woman is visited by a spirit who takes possession of her.

      #1

      The musok, or Korean shaman, is a tradition that has been practiced for more than forty thousand years. It is a form of communication with the spirit world, and it is still practiced today.

      #2

      Musok is a set of disparate religious or superstitious practices based in the belief of a natural world animated by spirits, and aimed at bridging between those spirits and living human beings. It is very practical, as it is used to solve people’s problems via communication with the spirit world.

      #3

      Musok is considered feminine in nature, and this is largely due to the fact that most practitioners are women. It has become a very profitable business, and many musok-in are drawn to it by the fact that it has become a very profitable business.

      #4

      The process of becoming a musok-in can start in two ways. The first is seseupmu, the inheritance of shaman status from one’s family, with an older relative conferring the status on a younger one. The second is gangshinmu, when a woman is visited by a spirit who takes possession of her.

      #5

      The musok-in is called on to provide gut, dancing, and singing to communicate with the spirits while dressed in the multicolor robes that denote her profession. She may ride the blades during a ceremony.

      #6

      Musok is a system of beliefs and behaviors that is very broad and difficult to define. It is based on animism, the belief that every natural entity has a spirit. The most important repositories of animist spirits in Korea are the mountains.

      #7

      Guksadang, a Korean shrine, is close to Cheong Wa Dae, the presidential mansion, which is located behind the main palace of the Joseon dynasty. This mountain is the busiest site in all of Korean shamanism.

      #8

      The Musok religion is very flexible and allows followers to pragmatically achieve their goals. It does not have a set of commandments or a hierarchy of authorized gods, and it is not addictive like a drug if taken too far.

      Insights from Chapter 2

      #1

      Buddhism in Korea was able to blend in with the existing religious landscape due to its philosophical openness. Koreans who turn to both religions are aware there are contradictions, but they rarely notice them.

      #2

      Buddhism originated in India and was brought to Korea by the Goguryeo, Baekje, and Shilla kingdoms. The Shilla court made Buddhism their state religion, and they poured
