Unlike other mushrooms that draw heir nutrients from the soil, this mushroom draws its nutrients from the birch tree. Other than drawing its nutrients from trees, another unique feature of this mushroom is that it’s usually hard instead of soft like other mushrooms. The insides of chaga have the color of rusted iron and the veins are cream-colored. The texture of the mushroom is cork-like and it has a charcoal-like appearance.

Robin Williamson has been the embodiment of that definition for a long time. Back in the 80s when he used to tour in the US, he did a show at the University of Washington during which he told stories of playing at a European rock festival with the Incredible String Band... Then he played a beautiful, heart-breaking ballad, and when he had us all starting to weep he went back to the story "and members of the German Hell's angels were hacking off bits of the stage, setting them on fire, and throwing them into the Black Sea..." until we were all laughing, and then back to the ballad until the entire audience was simultaneously laughing and weeping. The most gorgeous display of the bardic art I've ever seen. <br /><br />Good fortune to be in the land of bards and chaga!

I have always felt similarly about the monotonous, shamanic drumming - it has NEVER worked for me... keeping the same beat when the energy is shifting and the story needing to be told is stronger or softer or anything other than that same thing. My drumming follows some other kind of path in ritual. I'd love to hear Norwegian shamanic drumming. I suppose I've heard bits of it in some of the obscure traditional northern music I listen to. <br /><br />Happy for you that you shook something loose.
