Providing a fresh look at some of the pressing issues of our world
today, this collection focuses on experiential and ritualized
coping practices in response to a multitude of environmental
challenges-cyclones, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, earthquakes,
warfare and displacements of peoples and environmental resource
exploitation. Eco-cosmological practices conducted by skilled
healing practitioners utilize knowledge embedded in the
cosmological grounding of place and experiences of place and the
landscapes in which such experience is encapsulated. A range of
geographic case studies are presented in this volume, exploring
Asia, Europe, the Pacific, and South America. With special
reference throughout to ritual as a mode of seeking the
stabilization, renewal, and continuity of life processes, this
volume will be of particular interest to readers working in
shamanic and healing practices, environmental concerns surrounding
sustainability and conservation, ethnomedical systems, and
religious and ritual studies.
