This study seeks answers to several questions hitherto ignored by most biographers of Rāmakṛṣṇa: what really accounted for his relentless admonitions against sex life? What made him think that he was god or avatār, that is, a divine incarnation? And finally, why and how did he convince people that he was divine

Quakers and Mysticism

This book examines the nearly 400-year tradition of Quaker engagements with mystical ideas and sources. It provides a fresh assessment of the way tradition and social context can shape a religious community while interplaying with historical and theological antecedents within the tradition. Quaker concepts such as “Meeting,” the “Light,” and embodied spirituality, have led Friends to develop an interior spirituality that intersects with extra-Quaker sources, such as those found in Jakob Boehme, Abū Bakr ibn Tufayl, the Continental Quietists, Kabbalah, Buddhist thought, and Luyia indigenous religion. Through time and across cultures, these and other conversations have shaped Quaker self-understanding and, so, expanded previous models of how religious ideas take root within a tradition. The thinkers engaged in this globally-focused, interdisciplinary volume include George Fox, James Nayler, Robert Barclay, Elizabeth Ashbridge, John Woolman, Hannah Whitall Smith, Rufus Jones, Inazo Nitobe, Howard Thurman, and Gideon W. H. Mweresa, among others.

Musicology of Religion

Musicology of Religion

For generations, religion and music have been regarded as "universals," yet despite the fact that they have been frequently linked throughout history and topography, and despite the importance of music in the early stages of religious studies, their combined presence has not until now been considered a separate area of study and research. While there are well-developed fields of anthropology of religion, psychology of religion, and philosophy of religion, the widely recognized connections between religion and sound, chant, and music warrant comparable study. Drawing upon theories and methods in the study of both religion and music, referencing examples from world religious traditions, and addressing challenges posed by critics, this book envisions a unified field for religion and music: musicology of religion. Grounded in the scope and methods of phenomenology and comparative analysis, musicology of religion represents an innovative direction in interdisciplinary study, enriched by the social sciences, ethnomusicology, philosophy, theology, liturgical studies, and cognitive studies. As conceived, musicology of religion will spearhead new and creative paths in the study of religion.

British Quakerism, 1860-1920

In 1860 the British Society of Friends was a peculiar inward-looking sect, diminishing in numbers and influence. By 1920 British Quakerism, theologically liberal, socially active, and radically pacifist, emerged from a dramatic confrontation with the Warrior State possessed of economic, social, and moral influence out of all proportion to its still minuscule size (20,000). This carefully researched study chronicles the story of Quakerism's transformation during one of the most momentous periods in the history of the London (now British) Yearly Meeting of Friends.
