Book Synopsis Orixás na umbanda by : Janaina Azevedo
Download or read book Orixás na umbanda written by Janaina Azevedo and published by Universo dos Livros Editora. This book was released on 2010 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Umbanda, por primazia, é uma religião sincrética que assimilou valores, personagens, divindades e conceitos do espiritismo kardecista, do catolicismo popular e de algumas religiões africanas, sem contar a influência de outras religiões menores e cultos de diversas origens. Nenhum Deus foi criado histórica, metafísica ou espiritualmente com o advento da Umbanda. O que já existia foi renovado e sintetizado no sentido de desenvolver uma nova religião. O livro trata sobre as origens da Umbanda na África e como seu culto chegou ao Brasil. Esclarece por que foram escolhidos em específico os Orixás do panteão Iorubano e não, por exemplo, do panteão dividido entre as diversas nações jejê, anagô, bantu ou fon. Ensina, também, sobre os sete Orixás mais cultuados na Umbanda, em especial na Umbanda tradicional, explorando possíveis motivos para isto. Mostra quais são os pratos preferidos dos Orixás e como prepará-los. A obra ainda traz uma série de figuras que demonstram o assentamento de alguns Orixás e como devem ser dispostos pelo templo de maneira a garantir uma energização equilibrada e segura.
Book Synopsis O Espiritismo, a magia e as Sete Linhas de Umbanda by : Leal de Souza
Download or read book O Espiritismo, a magia e as Sete Linhas de Umbanda written by Leal de Souza and published by Fundamentos de Axé. This book was released on 2020-04-20 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trata-se de um livro histórico, considerado como o primeiro livro publicado a ter como tema as Sete Linhas de Umbanda e Demanda – suas rotinas, fundamentos e doutrina. Esse livro foi criado a partir da compilação dos artigos publicados por Leal de Souza, entre os anos de 1932 e 1933, no Diário de Notícias da então capital federal, o Rio de Janeiro. Além daqueles que estavam na primeira edição de seu livro, conseguimos resgatar outros 20 artigos, ainda inéditos, do autor. De terça a domingo, na primeira página do caderno de reportagens, Leal de Souza mostrava, com toda a clareza, os meandros de uma religião que acabara de nascer e que sofria grande repressão, inclusive, policial. Com suas palavras, buscava destruir o preconceito por meio da informação e a intolerância religiosa que perseguia seus irmãos. Temas e tabus, como despachos, orixás, vidência, obsessão e muitos outros são tratados com a desenvoltura de quem informa, com visão privilegiada, sem impor sua opinião. Esta nova edição contará com os seguintes paratextuais: - Prefácio de Nikolas Peripolli (médium umbandistas criador do projeto Umbandas e dirigente espiritual da Casa das Almas Santas e Benditas, além de ser palestrante e ministrar diversos cursos na área) - Posfácio de Diamantino Fernandes Trindade (Sacerdote do Templo Cristão Umbanda do Brasil e Ministro religioso da Casa de Cultura Umbanda do Brasil e autor com diversos livros publicados) - Texto de Leonardo Cunha (bisneto de Zélio Fernandino de Moraes e atual dirigente da Tenda Espírita Nossa Senhora da Piedade) - Texto de Maurício Ribeiro (doutor em comunicação e semiótica – PUC-SP – e pós-doutorando na ECO-UFRJ sobre a "construção do imaginário midiático da Umbanda") - Texto e pesquisa de Nathália Fernandes (historiadora, professora e mestre em História Social pela UFF – estudiosa sobre "Repressão policial às religiões de matriz afro-brasileira no período do Estado")
Book Synopsis Looking for God in Brazil by : John Burdick
Download or read book Looking for God in Brazil written by John Burdick and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1993-12-28 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a generation, the Catholic Church in Brazil has enjoyed international renown as one of the most progressive social forces in Latin America. The Church's creation of Christian Base Communities (CEBs), groups of Catholics who learn to read the Bible as a call for social justice, has been widely hailed. Still, in recent years it has become increasingly clear that the CEBs are lagging far behind the explosive growth of Brazil's two other major national religious movements—Pentacostalism and Afro-Brazilian Umbanda. On the basis of his extensive fieldwork in Rio di Janeiro, including detailed life histories of women, blacks, youths, and the marginal poor, John Burdick offers the first in-depth explanation of why the radical Catholic Church is losing, and Pentecostalism and Umbanda winning, the battle for souls in urban Brazil.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark work of ethnography explores the enduring, global worship of the African god of war—with five new essays in this new, expanded edition. Ogun—the ancient African god of iron, war, and hunting—is worshiped by more than forty million adherents in Western Africa, the Caribbean, and the Americas. This rich, interdisciplinary collection draws on field research from several continents to reveal Ogun’s dramatic power and enduring appeal. Contributors examine the history and spread of Ogun throughout old and new worlds; the meaning of Ogun ritual, myth, and art; and the transformations of Ogun through the deity’s various manifestations. This edition includes five new essays focusing mainly on Ogun worship in the new world. “[A]n ethnographically rich contribution to the historical understanding of West African culture, as well as an exploration of the continued vitality of that culture in the changing environments of the Americas.” —African Studies Review
Book Synopsis Spirit Possession and Spirit Mediumship in Africa and Afro-America by : Irving I. Zaretsky
Download or read book Spirit Possession and Spirit Mediumship in Africa and Afro-America written by Irving I. Zaretsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-19 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1978 Spirit Possession and Spirit Mediumship in Africa and Afro-America is an incredibly diverse and comprehensive bibliography on published works containing ethnographic data on, and analysis of, spirit possession and spirit mediumship in North and Sub-Saharan Africa and in some Afro-American communities in the Western Hemisphere. The sources on Western Afro-American communities were chosen to shed light on the African continent and the Americas. The bibliography, while not exhaustive, provides extensive research on the area of research in spiritualism in Africa and Afro-America. The bibliography also provides unique sources on spirit cults, ritual or ethnic groups and will be of especial interest to researchers. Although published in the late 70s, this book will still provide an incredibly useful research tool for academics in the area of religion, with a focus on spiritualism and non-western religions.

Book excerpt: Este livro nos mostra que é possível cultuar a Umbanda de outras formas, sem a necessidade da incorporação: com estudo e intuição. A fim de levar aos familiares, aos não umbandistas e aos simpatizantes as bênçãos e as mensagens das entidades e dos orixás, compartilhando sua energia e levando sua irradiação às nossas casas, Beto Angeli criou um método inovador que deu origem a um curso e, posteriormente, a esta obra de mesmo nome. Ainda que de uma forma distinta da realizada no terreiro — por questões de segurança, espaço e público —, a prática umbandista familiar é possível. Após a leitura de Umbanda em casa: prática umbandista familiar o leitor será capaz de realizar o culto umbandista em sua casa, com sua família e amigos, mostrando a todos o que é a Umbanda e levando seus ensinamentos e a mensagem das entidades e dos orixás àqueles que tanto amam e que compartilham, ou não, de nossa fé.

This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A trilogia – O Mistério dos Senhores de Vênus: Os Deuses Que Vieram do Céu; A Pluralidade dos Mundos Habitados e a Evolução do Homem; Deuses, Venusianos e Capelinos é o resultado de vários anos de pesquisa de Jorge da Silva Bessa que se consagra como profundo estudioso das mitologias e crenças religiosas que marcaram a história da humanidade. Nas quase 500 páginas desta trilogia o autor procura mostrar que, ao longo de nossa história, sempre estivemos amparados e sendo instruídos por elevadíssimas consciências espirituais, conhecidas como deuses, “jardineiros siderais”, “anjos do Senhor” e extraterrestres, entre outras denominações, no seio de quasetodasasgrandescivilizaçõesdopassado. Os deuses do passado, hoje, estão cada vez mais presentes, pois jamais deixaram a humanidade à sua própria sorte. Eles são os mesmos sábios espíritos de outrora, encarregados da execução direta da evolução planetária, que agora intervêm, de forma mais direta para promover essa mudança que alguns chamam Nova Era,FimdoMundoouApocalipse.

Book Synopsis Marginalised and Endangered Worldviews by : Lidia Guzy
Download or read book Marginalised and Endangered Worldviews written by Lidia Guzy and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2017 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The study of worldviews marginalized by mainstream modernity is an eminently important undertaking. It helps us better recognise, cherish and keep the values of traditions and practices that exist. This is important, when the uniform vision of the world heaped on us from the medias, modernist political movements and ideologies, revealed itself as unreal and fake, rendering it evident that the modern utopia of enlightened rationality is just a delirious nightmare."--Arpad Szakolczai, Professor of Sociology, U. College Cork. ***This book fosters dialogue on critical problems faced by endangered indigenous cultures and marginalised communities. The ethos is collaborative and comparative describing the implications for global society of the destruction and impoverishment of human and ecological cultural diversity.

Book Synopsis Spirits and Scientists by : David J. Hess
Download or read book Spirits and Scientists written by David J. Hess and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brazilian Spiritism (espiritismo, kardecismo) is an important middle-class religious movement whose followers believe in communication with the dead via spirit mediums and in healing illnesses by means of spiritual therapies. Unlike Anglo-Saxon Spiritualists, Brazilian Spiritists count among their number a well-developed and institutionalized intellectual elite that has reinterpreted northern hemisphere parapsychology and developed its own alternative medicine and sociology of religion. As a result, the mediation between popular religion (especially Afro-Brazilian religious practices) and the orthodoxies of the universities, the state, and the medical profession. Situating Spiritist intellectual thought in what he calls a broader ideological arena, Hess examines Spiritism in the context of religion, science, political ideology, medicine, and even the social sciences. Hess challenges the legacy of French sociologist Roger Bastide, who saw in Spiritism an elitist, middle-class ideology. In the process, Spirits and Scientists provides a new approach to middle-class religious movements in Latin America.
