Mircea Eliade scribit "Prima huius rei multiplicis definitio, et fortasse minime periculosa, erit: shamanismus est 'ars ecstasis religiosae.'"[16][17] Samanismus propositum amplectitur quod dicit samanos esse nuntios vel internuntios inter mundum hominum et mundum spirituum; etenim ei dicuntur morbos per animam emendatam tractare. Levare traumata quae animum vel spiritum affligunt physicum singuli corpus recurat. Samanus praeterea regna supernaturalia vel planities esotericas intrat ac quaestiones solvendas quae communitatem affligunt. Samani alios mundos vel dimensiones visere possunt ad animas dementes ducendas et ad morbosanimae humanae a rebus alienis affectos melius faciendos. Operatur samanus plerumque intra mundum spiritualem, qui vicissim mundum humanum afficit. Aequilibrium restituere malum amovit.[17]
