Noetic note:
        The figure of the shaman is closely associated 
        with madness. When an initiate becomes a shaman 
        by Eliade’s first method (spontaneous vocation), 
        he “takes the risk of being mistaken for a ‘madman’”.
        [Eliade, P. 80] The behaviour of someone chosen
        in this way becomes more and more strange. Such 
        a person “seeks solitude, becomes a dreamer, 
        loves to wander in woods or desert places, has 
        visions, sings in his sleep, etc.” 
            [Eliade, P. 75 – as quoted in Silvester]

It is an emersive V/R env that is (hopefully) condusive
to learning.
