«Он скрытый так, что его и облика нет, а я его нашел, я ему преклоняюсь»: о шаманском следе в современных взглядах на мир у северных селькупов

“He Is Hidden So That He Has No Appearance, But I Found Him, I Bow to Him”: About the Shamanic Mark on Modern Views of the World Among the Northern Selkups

Abstract

Актуальным для сегодняшней науки является вопрос сохранения и изменения традиционного мировоззрения, и прежде всего его шаманистической составляющей у современных народов Сибири и Севера. Статья посвящена изучению воздействия шаманской традиции на мировоззрение и образ жизни современных северных селькупов, влиянию шаманизма на формирование новой селькупской идентичности — к этим темам пока никто из ученых не обращался. Рассматривается и вводится в научный оборот ряд до сих пор неизвестных данных по традиционному селькупскому шаманизму и истории шаманства. В фокус исследования поставлены мировоззренческие установки селькупской семьи Тамелькиных, среди предков которой был знаменитый шаман Давыд Калин. Несмотря на то что нынешний глава семьи Тамелькиных обладает исключительными, сближающими его с шаманом, способностями, его взгляды на мироустройство типичны для большинства современных селькупов и лежат в русле традиционной духовности. Сегодняшние селькупы массово верят в существование по- потусторонних существ — духов, в сверхъестественные силы духов и старых шаманов, боятся духов и почитают их в обрядах жертвоприношения. В последние годы отмечается всплеск интереса селькупов к своим родовым шаманам и к сюжетам селькупской истории, связанным с шаманами. Исследование позволяет сделать вывод о том, что шаманизм оставил глубокий след в сознании селькупов и породил парадокс: шаманы ушли в небытие физически, но живут в народной памяти и владеют умами своих потомков, шаманская вера в селькупах никуда не исчезла, а только укрепила свои позиции. The issue of preserving and changing traditional worldviews is very relevant for today’s scholarship, especially as it relates to the shamanistic component among the modern peoples of Siberia and the North. This article is devoted to the impact of the shamanic tradition on the worldview and lifestyle of modern northern Selkups and the influence of shamanism on the formation of a new Selkup identity — a topic that scholars have not yet addressed. It introduces various hitherto unknown material on traditional Selkup shamanism and on the history of shamanism into scholarly circulation. The study focuses on the worldview of the Tamelkin Selkup family, among whose ancestors was the famous shaman, Davyd Kalin. Despite the fact that the current head of the Tamelkin family has exceptional abilities that bring him closer to a shaman, his views on the world are typical of most modern Selkups and are also in line with traditional spirituality. The majority of today’s Selkups believe in the existence of otherworldly beings — spirits — and in their supernatural powers and those of old shamans; they are afraid of spirits and revere them in sacrificial rites. In recent years, there has been a surge of Selkup interest in their tribal shamans and in Selkup history relating to them. The study concludes that shamanism has left a deep mark on the minds of the Selkups and has given rise to a paradox: while shamans have physically disappeared, they live on in people’s memory and have a hold on the minds of their descendants. The Selkups’ shamanic faith has not disappeared, but only increased.
