The most striking feature of Wutong, the preeminent God of Wealth in late imperial China, was the deity's diabolical character. Wutong was perceived not as a heroic figure or paragon of noble qualities but rather as an embodiment of humanity's basest vices, greed and lust, a maleficent demon who preyed on the weak and vulnerable. In The Sinister Way, Richard von Glahn examines the emergence and evolution of the Wutong cult within the larger framework of the historical development of Chinese popular or vernacular religion—as opposed to institutional religions such as Buddhism or Daoism. Von Glahn's study, spanning three millennia, gives due recognition to the morally ambivalent and demonic aspects of divine power within the common Chinese religious culture.

"A variety of Chinese writings-medical texts, religious treatises, fiction, and anecdotes-from the Song period (960-1279) depict women who were considered peculiar because their sexual bodies did not belong to men. These were women who refused to marry, were considered unmarriageable, or were married but denied their husbands sexual access, thereby removing themselves from social constructs of female sexuality defined in relation to men. As elite male authors attempted to make sense of these incomprehensible women whose sexual bodies were unavailable to them, they were forced to contemplate the purpose of women's bodies and lives apart from wifehood and motherhood. This raised troubling new questions about normalcy, desire, sexuality, and identity. In Divine, Demonic, and Disordered Hsiao-wen Cheng considers accounts of "manless women," many of which depict women who suffered from "enchantment disorder" or who engaged in "intercourse with ghosts"-conditions with specific symptoms and behavioral patterns. Through her questioning of conventional binary gender analyses and heteronormative assumptions, she shifts attention away from women's reproductive bodies and familial roles and offers historians of China and readers interested in women, gender, sexuality, medicine, and religion a fresh look at the unstable meanings attached to women's behaviors and lives even in a time of codified patriarchy"--

Basing her discussion on the classical Hindu versions of the legend, the author intersperses her analysis of the psychological meaning of the narrative with observations of how the present-day attitudes and behaviour of the Hindu male bear out such an interpretation.

Are angels, demons, aliens, Satan, and God one and the same entity? Examine the evidence and come to your own conclusion. Lorne J. Therrien Sr. is a mystic and a seasoned empath. On his path to win God's heart, Therrien experienced angels that appeared as bright as the sun, the comforting embrace of the Holy Spirit that would come and go leaving him in a euphoric state, and darker-than-night hooded shadows that lingered on the sidelines, watching. It is written, 'You shall not test the Lord, your God'. But when his empathic ability recognizes a similarity in the energy of the angels, demonic hooded shadows, and the Holy Spirit, a red flag is raised. Does he accept what has been written, or trust his intuition and test the God he loves? Making no assumptions, Therrien lets empathy, intuition, and thorough research guide the way, arriving at a clear understanding of both human and non-human nature. The opportunity presents itself with an unexpected visitation at a former monastery, and the game begins. Therrien invites a student curious about spiritual communication to join him as he confronts and converses with the divine and demonic to learn the true identity of the invisible presence. Lorne J. Therrien's Deceptive Gods will also share with you: - Why ancient aliens are not visitors from another planet but dual dimensional beings that have always been here. - What's behind the claim of hearing the voice of God. - Why God allows Satan to live. - Why exorcisms and house blessings rarely work. - How to stop dark thoughts and memories from dominating your consciousness. - How the jinn use mediums and play the dead. - How sex demons apply seductive techniques and can destroy a relationship. - What is inside the cloak of the hooded shadow. - What fairies are really like. And a long-held secret will be revealed. A deceiving hidden race has pulled the wool over humanity's eyes for millennia. Education in how to recognize their influences, guises, and lies is a must to avoid falling into their traps.
