It first happened at 14...through a religious festival called Thaipusam in Batu Caves Malaysia where I had my first full shamanic trance state and visions of the Hindu God, Siva.
Then in a Bali temple a few years later, where I was prevented from performing ritual offerings by my parents (out of cultural respect), so I offered my heart on a plate to Siva instead - cue trance state #2 accompanied by gamelan music.
Yeah, this was something I knew was for real. So many Siva synchronicities...so much love...so much support from other shamans...this was it!...and always had been.
