Download or read book Spirit of Wood written by Farish Noor and published by Tuttle Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With dozens of beautiful photographs and extensive text, this Malaysian art book is a testament to the skill and spirituality of Malaysia's traditional woodcarvers. Wood has always played a significant role in the Malay world, including the Malay Peninsula, as a means of shelter, livelihood, comfort and convenience. Among the living arts of Malaysia, woodcarving is one of the oldest, and for centuries woodcarvers enjoyed a prestige that few others did. A master woodcarver was not simply an artist. He had a mystical affinity with his material, and through his art he could unlock, channel and enhance the semangat, or life force, inherent in the wood. His works ere sought after not only for their beauty, but also for the symbolic power and meaning they embodied, in particular the keris, considered the pinnacle of woodcarver's art. Each of the pieces in this catalog of Malaysian art illustrates a specific motif, use of a pattern or form, or interpretation of a legend. The woodcarvings range from extremely important and rare pieces, such as royal ceremonial objects, to wood panels, household objects and elements of traditional Malay architecture.
Download or read book Spirit Tree written by E. Leslie Williams and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2007 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite what some scholarship has suggested, Shintô does exhibit a unifying cognitive integrity. Spirit Tree offers a unique social psychological interpretation of Shintô ritual at the Hakozaki Hachiman Shrine in Fukuoka, Japan and situates the cosmological organization of this practice within the larger context of ritual in East Asia. Employing a comparative approach, this study blends two theoretical orientations: cultural anthropology and Jungian psychology. Hakozaki's rituals are a combination of a Yayoi period female medium tradition with a complex set of Chinese Yin-Yang Five Phase principles. Both systems are based on the feminine archetype, a fundamental conceptual foundation of Shintô ritual practice, which cognitively links woman and the earth. While the female shaman tradition is female-affirming in outlook, the later Chinese system is much less so. This monograph is a new acknowledgement of the conceptual continuity of Shintô ritual as an outgrowth of social cognition.

Download or read book The Holy Spirit in the Old Testament written by Leon J. Wood and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 1998-06-24 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are more than veiled references to the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament. The Spirit is seen as the creator, the renewer of the life of humanity in redemption, as the Person through whom the prophets of the Lord were inspired and through whom men and women received the gifts of wisdom for leadership, administration, and craftsmanship. Dr. Wood concludes his study by showing that the concepts of regeneration, indwelling, sealing, filling, and empowering by the Spirit were already in action in the Old Testament. He presents a comparative study of the words for "spirit" in both testaments and shows how the Old Testament revelation serves as a background and a basis for a fuller understanding of the complete work of the spirit in present New Testament age of fulfillment.
