Sixteen-year-old Marcus is a young man living within a confused world. His mother has developed an insatiable taste for alcohol, his father is mostly absent, and his brother has been deployed to Afghanistan. As unrest lurks inside and outside of his Brooklyn home, Marcus begins a quest for answers to lifes most difficult questions. Marcus has not heard from his father in months, but he still agrees to meet him one eveningjust so he can get away from his mother and her obnoxious new boyfriend. Marcuss father looks like he has a lot of class but really has none whatsoever; when he takes Marcus to a greasy chicken joint to reveal that he is remarrying, Marcus realizes nothing has changed. But for Marcus, life is about to become more than he ever expected. After the police search his home for drugs, secrets shatter his normalcy, and the only world Marcus has ever known begins spinning out of control. When the Gods Speak through Rain tells the poignant story of a young man who is just trying to surviveeven when it seems impossibleand eventually finds hope in the realization that the imperfections of others are really what makes them perfect.

The Beautiful Noise in My Head is a journey through Caribbean waves and the spirits that occupy the coconut trees. This book of poetry travels the world and generations. It unearths the voices of ghosts, which had been lost for a while. With each poem, a vast amount of emotions will be incited in the reader, leaving a casualty of feelings to be reconciled. The book revisits the doorsteps of slaves and fallen victims of the streets. It exposes the candy stealer of the wealthy and gives independence to poor people's fingers. These voices that were circumcised at birth will finally be able to sit at the table and enjoy the same meal as a result of the words that perfume each page of this book. From the revealing "Conversation with a Whiteman" to the provoking "Hollywood Crack House," The Beautiful Noise in My Head travels at a high-rate speed never letting the reader take a breath. They are the sounds the author heard while the quiet became loud with each step taken in a foreign land.

The Chandogya Upanisad: The culture it reflects is remote and archaic, the texture of its ritualistic and contemplative symbolism thick and dense-virtually a closed book for us moderns. A sustained self-submitting attentiveness, however, discloses its language as resonating disturbingly modern notes, focusing our attention on many of our pathologies as well as our possibilities, pathologies and possibilities that have escaped the notice of us moderns. The spirit of quiet hermeneutics that characterizes this study illumines many an opaque spot in this text, solves many an interpretive puzzle, turns many of its 'archaic naivetes' into living and compelling profundities. We are made to realize that what some moderns call Gestell is far more primordial than they would envisage it to be, far more ominous and primitive, tragic and persistent. A radical transformation is required, an ontological transformation. Not mere 'a masterly exposition' of an ancient text is, therefore, this study, but 'an authentic springboard for fresh philosophical thinking fecundating (the) two shores of the human experience: East and West'. The first three (published) Vols. are on (i) Isa, Kena, Katha and Prasna Upanisads; (ii) Mundaka and Mandukya Upanisad with Gaudapada Karika; (iii) Taittiriya and Aitareya Upanisads.

For two millennia, Chinese society has been producing divine revelations on an unparalleled scale, in multifarious genres and formats. This book is the first comprehensive attempt at accounting for the processes of such production. It builds a typology of the various ritual techniques used to make gods present and allow them to speak or write, and it follows the historical development of these types and the revealed teachings they made possible. Within the large array of visionary, mediumistic, and mystical techniques, Vincent Goossaert devotes the bulk of his analysis to spirit-writing, a family of rites that appeared around the eleventh century and gradually came to account for the largest numbers of books and tracts ascribed to the gods. In doing so, he shows that the practice of spirit-writing must be placed within the framework of techniques used by ritual specialists to control human communications with gods and spirits for healing, divining, and self-divinization, among other purposes. Making the Gods Speak thus offers a ritual-centered framework to study revelation in Chinese cultural history and comparatively with the revelatory practices of other religious traditions.

Indian indigenous societies are especially known for their elaborate rituals, which offer an excellent chance for studying religion as practice. However, few detailed ethnographic works exist on the ritual practices of these societies. Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Jharkhand, India this book offers insights into contemporary, previously not described rituals of the Santal, one of the largest indigenous societies of Central India. Its focus lies on culturally specific notions of place as articulated and created during these rituals. In three chapters the book discusses how the Santal "make place" on different local, regional and global levels through their rituals: They reaffirm their ancestral roots in their land during large sacrificial rituals. They offer sacrifices to the dangerous deities of the forest in exchange for rain. And they claim their region to be a "Santal region" through large festivals celebrated in sacred groves, which they link to national and global discourses of indigeneity and environmentalism. Through an analysis of the rituals of a specific society, this book addresses broader issues. It presents an example of how to study religion as a practical activity. It portrays culture-specific perceptions of the environment. And last, the book underlines the potential that lies in choosing place as a lens to study social phenomena in context.
