Mages, sorcerers, wizards and wizards were withimmemorial times. But they were called in different eras in different ways. Let's try today to figure out who the wizards are. Is this a Russian word or is it borrowed from other languages? What do magicians do, and what are their attitudes?
Origin of the word
If we refer to the ancient chronicles, then in themoften referred to as "magician". The meaning of the word is Magus, sorcerer, wizard. The word "Kudes" is translated from the Old Russian language as witchcraft or enchantment. It turns out that the person owning these charms will be a magician.
In other sources it is indicated that magicians aredoing a miracle This word is considered to be fundamental. A miracle, wonder, surprise, eccentric, wonder - all these words can be used one way or another, speaking of magic and witchcraft. In the old Russian language the word "miracle" meant - worthy of surprise or startling.
Doka in his business
Если немного обобщить, то кудесники – это люди, who are very experienced in their field and are able to surprise (talent, skills, skills). The word can be used in relation to many professions. For example, Pushkin: “Tell me, magician, beloved of the gods. What will come true in life with me? ”Here is meant a person with certain abilities and endowed with power.
Colloquially, the word can be used inthe following context: "You cook so well-known, just a magician, you will lick your fingers." Here the meaning of the word has nothing to do with the supernatural. This means a completely different wizard. The meaning of the word will be “dock, craftsman, doing his work better than others, etc.”.
Witchcraft
Most often, of course, the word "wizard"associated with the magicians and the wise men of ancient Russia. In those days, magic was very popular. The magicians are Slavic magicians who practiced the change of being, enchantment, magic and the science of the transformation of matter. The magicians believed that they could communicate with spirits, guides, souls of the dead, guardians. They traveled to different worlds, collected useful data and bestowed them on ancient Russian society.
In fact, many scientists believe that the magician isthis is a shaman, moreover, practicing and experienced. Shamanism, like wizardry, is a very ancient tradition that has historically evolved over the years. Historians confirm that the shamans - magicians were still in the Neolithic era.
Wizards, practicing practical shamanism,communicating with spirits and practicing magic inhabit the globe to this day. There are many shamans in South America, Africa, Peru and Korea. But the wizards practice in Siberia, Buryatia, Altai, the Far East and Tuva.
Modern wizards
Кто такой кудесник знали и сотни лет назад, и Today. The roots of the word go back to the Slavic past, when the Magi dominated, drawing power and inspiration from natural sources. Modern magicians are people who glorify the primacy of nature, praise the elements, and appeal with knowledge from epics and ancient legends. Today's magic is more advanced and “well-read” science. Knowledge of magicians is supported by centuries-old experience of ancestors and written out magic rituals. In some sources, modern magic is also called esoteric or the inner teaching of light. Wizards practice various practices based on unity with nature and communication with their own inner world.
Who is the wizard in the modern world?This is a man who lives in several realities. In everyday life, you will never distinguish it from an ordinary person. Only a select circle of like-minded people will know what kind of magic and abilities a particular magician practices. Such people are accompanied everywhere by amulets and amulets, perfume helpers and the power of animals.
Modern wizards are not hermits,secluded in the wilderness. They are fully formed people who work and enjoy the benefits of civilization. Just the internal state of these people is different from the consciousness of an ordinary person. They live in harmony with the world, nature and themselves.
