Rituals and Traditional Events in the Modern World


Book Description

Many events have evolved over centuries, drawing on local customs and conditions. However, as the world becomes increasingly globalised, traditional events and the identities they support are increasingly being challenged and rituals may be lost. Reacting against this trend towards homogeneity, communities strive to preserve and even recreate their traditional events, which may require rituals to be resurrected or reinvented for a new audience. The aim of this book is to explore the role of traditional events and rituals in the modern world. The 16 chapters cover a range of case studies of the performance of ritual through events, including their historical antecedents and development over time, as well as their role in society, link with identities both seemingly fixed and fluid and their continued relevance. The cases examined are not museum pieces, but rather vibrant festivals and events that continue to persist. Drawing on the power of history and cultural tradition, they are manifestations of heritage, existing in three temporalities: celebrating the past, occurring in the present and aiming to continue into and influence the future. Iconic events including Chinese New Year, Hogmanay and the New Orleans Mardi Gras are examined and examples are drawn from a diverse range of countries such as South Korea, China, Laos, the United States, Scotland, Italy, India and Haiti. This volume provides a deep understanding upon the role of tradition and ritual within events, from a global perspective and will be valuable reading for students, researchers and academics interested in events, heritage and culture.

My Feng Shui


Book Description

My Feng Shui carefully guides the reader through a realm of ancient Chinese wisdom where a feather can be as powerful as a white tiger and where dragons, bells and crystals reside with the turtle. Featured are Feng Shui aromatherapy, garden layouts, dowsing with a pendulum and the placement of natural crystals. The art of Feng Shui is deeply rooted in the findings of a collective intelligence of sages through the centuries. Its core is harmony and balance, using the art of placement and positive energy flows to promote happiness, good health, abundance and a passion for living. The prosperity of Hong Kong, Taiwan, Malaysia and Singapore has been based on and nurtured by the practice of Feng Shui, so any doubt regarding the validity of this ancient craft must cease to exist. Then, compare the close-knit unity of Eastern families against their fragmented Western counterparts, leaving no doubt that we should activate this ancient wisdom to attract enrichment needed for a pleasant and fruitful life's journey. Yin and Yang are the dualism in everything, from the protons and electrons forming an atom to our sun's creative and receptive ability to develop atomic fuel to stoke its furnace. Yin/Yang represents the balancing forces of the universe that see-saw eternally. The marriage of Yin and Yang, symbolised by an equally divided, ever-turning circle, shows that each half contains a seed from its other, indicating change through the constant interaction of energies that manifest all things, life, and actions.
