The innocence of a young woman, in her naivety, thought the grass greener on the other side.... The chance meeting with an attractive man as she ran for cover in the pouring rain, swept off her feet with a promise of a passionate life in a tropical paradise. But, the promise of paradise is not always as it seems as she s thrust into a life of kidnap, murder, and a desperate struggle for survival for herself and her innocent children. In the outback of the Australian desert the fight for their survival goes on as the battle against death takes its daily toll, as she realises she s not the only one to be fighting this evil. It is unfortunate for her and her children what seemed at the start of an innocent encounter, turning unexpectedly to violence, as he showed them another side more evil than they could ever have imagined. Who could help them survive their daily lives, left alone with the company of snakes, the searing sun and the heat.

Words of love, light and extreme wisdom for the sole purpose of teaching hope, love and peace, emanating from God's words. The questions I have asked Archangel Michael to answer in the book are simple questions that I would like to know the answers to myself. These answers make the Angelic Realm and the World of Spirit seem so near, so accessible to us ordinary people just wondering what our home is really like after we leave this world of earth and complete our journey home.

A Tortilla Is Like Life

A Tortilla Is Like Life

Carole M. Counihan

University of Texas Press
2009
pokkari
Located in the southern San Luis Valley of Colorado, the remote and relatively unknown town of Antonito is home to an overwhelmingly Hispanic population struggling not only to exist in an economically depressed and politically marginalized area, but also to preserve their culture and their lifeways. Between 1996 and 2006, anthropologist Carole Counihan collected food-centered life histories from nineteen Mexicanas-Hispanic American women-who had long-standing roots in the Upper Rio Grande region. The interviews in this groundbreaking study focused on southern Colorado Hispanic foodways-beliefs and behaviors surrounding food production, distribution, preparation, and consumption.In this book, Counihan features extensive excerpts from these interviews to give voice to the women of Antonito and highlight their perspectives. Three lines of inquiry are framed: feminist ethnography, Latino cultural citizenship, and Chicano environmentalism. Counihan documents how Antonito's Mexicanas establish a sense of place and belonging through their knowledge of land and water and use this knowledge to sustain their families and communities. Women play an important role by gardening, canning, and drying vegetables; earning money to buy food; cooking; and feeding family, friends, and neighbors on ordinary and festive occasions. They use food to solder or break relationships and to express contrasting feelings of harmony and generosity, or enmity and envy. The interviews in this book reveal that these Mexicanas are resourceful providers whose food work contributes to cultural survival.

Conversion among the Germanic Peoples

Conversion among the Germanic Peoples

Carole M. Cusack

Continuum International Publishing Group Ltd.
1998
sidottu
A study of mission and conversion among the Germanic kingdoms, this book traces the transformation of the late antique world into medieval Europe through the acceptance of Christianity. It is grounded in contemporary anthropological discourses, and focuses on the encounter between the Christian missionaries and the Germanic kings, an encounter which resulted in a shift in belief concerning the ultimate sources of power. The forms of Christianity developed by the converted are seen in the context of their pre-Christian beliefs and the need for continuity amongst change.

Invented Religions

Invented Religions

Carole M. Cusack

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2010
sidottu
Utilizing contemporary scholarship on secularization, individualism, and consumer capitalism, this book explores religious movements founded in the West which are intentionally fictional: Discordianism, the Church of All Worlds, the Church of the SubGenius, and Jediism. Their continued appeal and success, principally in America but gaining wider audience through the 1980s and 1990s, is chiefly as a result of underground publishing and the internet. This book deals with immensely popular subject matter: Jediism developed from George Lucas' Star Wars films; the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, founded by 26-year-old student Bobby Henderson in 2005 as a protest against the teaching of Intelligent Design in schools; Discordianism and the Church of the SubGenius which retain strong followings and participation rates among college students. The Church of All Worlds' focus on Gaia theology and environmental issues makes it a popular focus of attention. The continued success of these groups of Invented Religions provide a unique opportunity to explore the nature of late/post-modern religious forms, including the use of fiction as part of a bricolage for spirituality, identity-formation, and personal orientation.

Sacred Suicide

Sacred Suicide

Carole M. Cusack

Routledge
2018
nidottu
The label 'Suicide Cults' has been applied to a wide variety of different alternative religions, from Jonestown to the Solar Temple to Heaven's Gate. Additionally, observers have asked if such group suicides are in any way comparable to Islamist suicide terrorism, or to historical incidents of mass suicide, such as the mass suicide of the ancient community of Masada. Organizationally and ideologically diverse, it turns out that the primary shared trait of these various groups is a common stereotype of religion as an irrational force that pushes fanatics to undertake acts of suicidal violence. Offering a valuable perspective on New Religious Movements and on religion and violence, Sacred Suicide brings together contributions from a diverse range of international scholars of sociology, religious studies and criminology.

Gurdjieff

Gurdjieff

Carole M. Cusack; Steven J. Sutcliffe

Ashgate Publishing Limited
2026
sidottu
George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff (c.1866-1949) is acknowledged as one of the most influential early teachers of a hybridised Eastern-Western esoteric spiritual tradition, and one of a few key influences on the contemporary New Age Movement and a myriad other alternative spiritualities and new religions. Positioning Gurdjieff's teachings within the field of New Religious Movements, this book examines the 'Work' (as Gurdjieff's system is commonly called), including his teachings presented in writings, music, and exercises known as 'Movements'. This critical introduction to the Gurdjieff tradition also provides an analysis of problems with unreliable sources and auto-mythology, examines major pupils and successors, and shows how the 'Work' functions in the contemporary spiritual marketplace. Offering an excellent introduction to anyone unfamiliar with Gurdjieff and his context, this book also provides further depth for scholars and an invaluable companion to literature examining Blavatsky, Steiner, Theosophy, and Anthroposophy.
