1. While they may have practiced deception in minor matters, the great majority of the [[shaman]]s believed in the fact of their [[spirit]] possession. Women who were able to throw themselves into a '''trance''' or a cataleptic fit became powerful shamanesses; later, such women became [[prophet]]s and spirit mediums. Their cataleptic trances usually involved alleged communications with the ghosts of the dead. Many female shamans were also professional [[dance]]rs.[http://www.urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper90.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper90.html&line=39#mfs]
2. There is great danger associated with the habitual practice of religious daydreaming; mysticism may become a technique of [[reality]] avoidance, albeit it has sometimes been a means of genuine [[spiritual]] [[communion]]. Short seasons of retreat from the busy scenes of life may not be seriously dangerous, but prolonged isolation of [[personality]] is most undesirable. Under no circumstances should the <u>trance</u>like state of visionary [[consciousness]] be cultivated as a religious [[experience]].[http://www.urantia.org/cgi-bin/webglimpse/mfs/usr/local/www/data/papers?link=http://mercy.urantia.org/papers/paper100.html&file=/usr/local/www/data/papers/paper100.html&line=101#mfs]
