This remarkable book helps us to connect and flow with their universal rhythm of wholeness, to become who and what we really are.

Download or read book An Ethnography of Faith written by Caroline Jeannerat and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2023-01-05 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research into the history of Christian missions in the context of colonialism has focused primarily on missions as institutions and on the ways in which people were integrated into the economic, political and ideological spheres of imperial powers. Reduced to an experience occurring within a person, faith was deemed unapproachable by scientific methods. This has, in effect, constituted a silence regarding the everyday experience of religiosity amongst those drawn to Christianity. Ethnography of Faith is a detailed study of the ways in which people engage with and experience the religious in order to recognise and understand this suppressed voice of religiosity. In her analysis of the Lutheran church in the Soutpansberg of early twentieth century South Africa, Caroline Jeannerat listens closely to how people describe their own faith and that of others in the archive: in accounts of work done, in texts written for mission publications, in songs composed for church services, in letters and newspaper articles and in oral memories. A careful reading of this archive for breaks, for misunderstandings and oppositions, for sentiments of agreement, praise, compatibility and claims of shared experiences identifies negotiations of meaning which give indications of conceptualisations of faith that stand in distinction to those of the missionaries and their expectations. Caroline Jeannerat holds a PhD in history and anthropology from the University of Michigan (2007).

Book excerpt: Odd-I-Sea By: Lynn Palmer My Greek protector became “My Love.” I know what love is now. Love is “I choose him, he has my heart, and I have his heart.” The first time he said that to me was on Mannar. It was as if the planet stopped. My breath went in and came back out so slowly. Everything changed in that moment—I felt it. We did go through a period of adjustment where I had to yell at him a lot, but that was then, this is now, and I have never been happier on this Earth! But I still ask myself one question: How can we be going into an enlightened transformational period when the Vatican is allowed to ritualistically murder our children, our future? Odd-I-Sea: The Lightest of the Light, the Darkest of the Dark is the result of promises made to a man in a dream and to author Lynn Palmer. Light, warmth, and beauty are easy to share. Sharing and embracing the dark is not as comfortable. Only by being aware of the truth can we bring the light of change. The point of this story is to stop the ritualistic murder of children who visit Gozo and their parents!

Download or read book Call of the Great Spirit written by Bobby Lake-Thom and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2001-11-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A traditional Native American healer from the Karuk tribe shares his personal story of reconnection to the Great Spirit in contemporary America. • By Bobby Lake-Thom, author of the bestseller Native Healer. • Provides Native American shamanic perspective on disease and healing. • Explores indigenous social identity in a spiritual and political context. • Reveals authentic indigenous traditions and ceremonies from numerous tribes. This redemption story of Native American healer Bobby Lake-Thom invites the reader to enter a world of authentic indigenous traditions and ceremonies. Bobby, also known as Medicine Grizzly Bear, didn't recognize his shamanic calling at first. He didn't know that his vivid dreams, psychic abilities, and visitations by wild animals and ghostly figures were calls from the Great Spirit. In the age-old shamanic tradition, it took a near-death experience for the message to get through to him. Though still a young man, he was wracked with debilitating arthritis. Unable to handle the physical and psychic pain, he set out into the wilderness determined to kill himself with an overdose of drugs and alcohol. But before downing the substances, he approximated a Native American ceremony as best he could, sending a heartfelt prayer for assistance to the Great Spirit. He woke up--alive--the next morning and received a message from Eagle, telling him to seek help from Wahsek, a medicine man in the northern mountains. And so Bobby's apprenticeship began. Forbidden to reveal Wahsek's secrets until 10 years after his death, Bobby is now free to share this fascinating story with the world.
