Australian Aborigine
(This is an excerpt from a University Of Metaphysical Sciences course at www.umsonline.org,

The Australian Aborigines are well-known for their shamanistic practices, but no one knows anything about them. White people have not been able to record their practices because whites have not been able to witness such things unless they have become part of the tribe and have been sworn to secrecy. In Aborigine tribes, outsiders don’t even have a name until it is given to them. One thing that is known about Aborigine belief systems is that they believe that life is a dream of the soul, and that it is all illusion. They know they are dreaming themselves as humans. Other than this, there is no other information on their practices. There are no books, minimal internet resources, and for the most part, they have kept their practices a secret. However, they should be mentioned in any course on shamanism, for they are, perhaps, the only people who are still somewhat untouched by the civilized world and are happy to remain so. Their shamanistic practices are quite pure and unadulterated, even to this day!
