Book excerpt: Laxmi means money or wealth. When we suffer from lack of wealth, it is because of inherited karmas. When our ancestors have failed in pleasing the Goddess of wealth, she will be missing in our life. This is why we need to perform Laxmi Puja. Without light our whole life becomes dark, so also without wealth we live in darkness and ignorance Many of us aspire to be wealthy, but are we really ready and able to receive it? The ancient Hindus asked and prepared themselves to receive wealth in all its forms by a special set of ceremonies and prayers that not only attract material and spiritual wealth, but also allows them to receive it, use it appropriately, and conserve it. In this book, Swami Ram Charran gives a step-by-step explanation of the ritual to Mother Laxmi or Laxmi Puja and guides every person towards accepting the prosperity that is the birth right of every child of God.

Download or read book Passages and Afterworlds written by Maarit Forde and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contributors to Passages and Afterworlds explore death and its rituals across the Caribbean, drawing on ethnographic theories shaped by a deep understanding of the region's long history of violent encounters, exploitation, and cultural diversity. Examining the relationship between living bodies and the spirits of the dead, the contributors investigate the changes in cosmologies and rituals in the cultural sphere of death in relation to political developments, state violence, legislation, policing, and identity politics. Contributors address topics that range from the ever-evolving role of divinized spirits in Haiti and the contemporary mortuary practice of Indo-Trinidadians to funerary ceremonies in rural Jamaica and ancestor cults in Maroon culture in Suriname. Questions of alterity, difference, and hierarchy underlie these discussions of how racial, cultural, and class differences have been deployed in ritual practice and how such rituals have been governed in the colonial and postcolonial Caribbean.

McNeal, George Mentore, Richard Price, Karen Richman, Ineke (Wilhelmina) van Wetering, Bonno (H.U.E.) Thoden van Velzen
