yes, the day-keepers are shaman (men as well as women) and head up the ceremonies. they are usually chosen and trained while still young.
Are you familiar with the work of Stanley Krippner? His work on shamans is amazing - he highlights how the young people trained to be shamans/healers/mystics are often the sort of people who end up severely mentally ill in western culture. I was often v. ill until I learnt to sit
