Mount Kailash in Asia, the Black Hills in North America, Uluru in Australia: around the globe, numerous mountains have been and continue to be attributed sacredness. Worship of these mountains involves prayer, meditation and pilgrimage. Christianity, which long showed little interest in nature, provides a foil to these practices and was one factor in the tensions that arose in the age of colonialism. Decolonisation and the 'ecological turn' changed the religious power of interpretation and imparted new meaning to discourses about sacred mountains. This succinct and erudite study demonstrates how, globally, these mountains remain outstanding examples of cultural diversity and convergence points of issues such as gender justice and environmental protection.

"A student of mysticism for over thirty years, David Cooper has engaged in an intense spiritual journey for the last sixteen that has led him from a secluded mountain hut in New Mexico to the Sinai Desert, from chanting Sufi dhikr and going on extended retreats with Buddhist masters to studying Kabbalah and esoteric Judaism in the Old City of Jerusalem. Abandoning his career as a political consultant in Washington, D.C., Cooper and his wife lived for eight years in the Orthodox community in Jerusalem, while spending each summer engaged in contemplative practice, particularly Buddhist Vipassana (Insight) Meditation. In the early nineties the Coopers returned to the United States to establish a small retreat facility in the mountains of Colorado. Cooper is comfortable in the spiritual language of many world traditions. Ordained as a rabbi in 1992, he continues to emphasize the universal nature of the mystical experience, which he feels is available to everyone." "Entering the Sacred Mountain is the fascinating and inspiring chronicle of Cooper's search for truth and how this has strengthened the union between his wife and himself."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

On the mountains of truth you can never climb in vain: either you will reach a point higher up today, or you will be training your powers so that you will be able to climb higher tomorrow. Friedrich Nietzsche What mountains mean to me: in one word, awe-inspiring. Although we can measure them, our minds are incapable of actually grasping the very small or the very large things in nature: neither atomic particles nor astronomical distances. How big is a mountain, how much does it weigh? Our limited minds can only cope with subjective assessments such as how difficult is it to climb, how dangerous would an avalanche be? So the feelings it produces are awe, a little fear, and possibly exhilaration if and when we think that we have conquered the mountain - but in reality we never can. Professor David Hunt All the stories presented in this collection contain shamanic elements, so the obvious starting point is to explain what is meant by this. The term 'shaman' is a controversial one. Initially employed by early anthropologists to refer to a specific category of magical practitioners from Siberia, the term is now widely used to denote similar practitioners from a variety of cultures around the world. This application of an originally culture-specific term to a more general usage has caused problems with regard to definition, with disagreements among scholars over whether certain features, such as soul flight or possession, or certain types of altered states of consciousness, should or should not be listed among the core characteristics of shamanism (Wilby, 2011, p.252). Introduction What are Mountains for you? Soul Captivation on White Bone Mountain The Magic Brush and the Golden Mountain The Legend of Amirani The Story of Jumping Mouse The Children of Hamelin: A Shamanic Journey into Mount Poppenberg The Crystal Clear Waters of Mount Elbruz The Vision Quest, Mount Sinai, and a Dream Fulfilled Mount Ararat Mount Koya-san, the Hermit's Cave, and Fujiyama Sacred Towers The Fool on the Hill and the Book of Mysteries The Tobacco of Harisaboqued The Princess of the Tower Appendix: The Baal Shem Tov - Rabbi, Religious Formulator or Shaman?
