No evidence for that. This is as if I said that we live among the
invisible aliens that are superior to us, it's just that they never
bothered to say hello. It just doesn't make much sense. I guess that
Occam's razor would demand the conclusion that the shamanic
experiences belong to the sphere of primitive religion and superficial
experiences, because this is exactly what they seem to be, and I see
no reason to believe otherwise.
