Available April 10, 2010 G.D.Bakshi, in this work has surmised that the earliest man was possessed with certain extra-special powers of sensory perception, which allowed him to overcome his adversities. As time passed man left his nomadic ways. He settled down to a pastoral existence and he slowly lost these powers. Finally it became apparent that these extra-sensory powers were left amongst a few persons only. These persons then went on to use these by now magical powers to over-awe and impress their fellow men of their superiority. These few were the Shamans that we still see today in many tribal communities. Through many may be charlatans exploiting the beliefs of their kinsmen some truly do possess these powers even today.
