The main idea of this paper is to discuss the spiritual aspects of the shamanic festivals expounding the Korean concept of peace and coexistence that are being integrated with the colorful rituals and unique cultural presentations. The shamanic festivals and rituals symbolize the spirituality of inter-relatedness that asserts balance to the concept of time and history as moving forward to the fulfillment of the cosmic peace. I have sought to describe coexistence as a perfect state of peace and evolving human mind is the expression of relational beings that embrace the whole and all its parts in a qualitative sense. The shamanic spirituality of peace can be understood as an emergent process with a radically relational form of coexistence in which individual creatures have their own integrity and a world that is evolving in time at every level. The shamanic spirituality of peace can be thought of as coexistence that constantly creates spiritual and ethical space in the shared dynamic life to be in the process of becoming towards the attainment of the perfect state of peace at every level of existence. The shamanic spirituality of peace underlies the co-existential relationships which constantly involve all those interactions and connections that incorporate components into a more complex whole and relate that complex whole into another level of unity. This process of creating a new sublimed level of unity is an essential principle of the shamanic spirituality of peace: towards ‘to-be-in coexistence’ and ‘to-be-in relationships.’
