Religions often nurture important skills that help believers locate
themselves in the world. Religious perceptions, practices,
emotions, and beliefs are closely interwoven with the environments
from which they emerge. Sigurd Bergmann's driving emphasis here is
to explore religion not in relation to, but as a part of the
spatiality and movement within the environment from which it arises
and is nurtured. Religion, Space, and the Environment emerges from
the author's experiences in different places and continents over
the past decade. At the book's heart lie the questions of how
space, place, and religion amalgamate and how lived space and lived
religion influence each other. Bergmann explores how religion and
the memory of our past impact our lives in urban spaces; how the
sacred geographies in Mayan and northeast Asian lands compare to
modern eco-spirituality; and how human images and practices of
moving in, with, and through the land are interwoven with the
processes of colonization and sacralizing, and the practices of
power and visions of the sacred, among other topics.
