Possuindo uma população de aproximadamente oitocentos membros, atua em vinte e quatro cidades brasileiras. Esse movimento procura difundir na sociedade ocidental a milenar cultura hindu. Krishna é considerado o Deus Supremo e transmite toda sua sabedoria através das sagradas escrituras da Incia, os Vedas. Nova Gokula é a comunidade rural desse movimento no Brasil, situada na cidade de Pindamonhangaba, Estado de São Paulo. Nela, mais de uma centena de pessoas procuram viver uma vida monástica voltada à devoção a Krishna, as vinte e quatro horas do dia. O presente trabalho procura fazer uma interpretação do universo simbólico vivenciado por esse grupo de pessoas, na tentativa de entender quem são esses personagens. A utilização do universo simbólico védico é analisada não como uma busca de um "outro" distante, mas como um conjunto de símbolos ao qual são atribuídos novos significados, permitindo que a vida seja vivida de maneira singular.

Selected fundamental-theological aspects of the Haré Krishna movement. In this work we try to give an overview of the Roman Catholic Church as well as the Haré Krishna movement, ie the history, anthropology and theology of religious organizations selected by us. The whole thesis is divided into three chapters. In the first chapter we are talking about fundamental theology and synthetically imagine its history, the state and the most important fundamental questions of theology, such as: imagine of a man in the Roman Catholic Church, God's revelation, fundamental Christology and ecclesiology fundamental. In this chapter we also transfer as divine revelation, Jesus Christ and the Church. In the following, the second chapter we talk about the Haré Krishna movement and symmetrical to the first chapter in this section deal with the image of man in the Haré Krishna movement, divine revelation, Krishna and Prabhupada and ISKCON as an institution that Prabhupada founded. In the last third chapter of this work fundamentally-theologically-evaluate the credibility of anthropology, divine revelation, Krishna, Prabhupada and ISKCON. In conclusion, this thesis will then only recall why we wrote this thesis.

In that same year, this religious movement would arrive in Pernambuco bringing with it its members, beliefs and practices for the public space of the state and despairing the attention of the people and the media. In this dissertation, we analyze some of the possible ways that the movement followed during its insertion in Pernambuco and how it was institutionalized and propagated in the state, between the years of 1973 and 1996. The main objective of this work is to understand some of the practices developed by its members in this period, and how they were represented in some of the local newspapers. We could realize that, in the broader context of the debate on the “new religious movements”, the Hare Krishna movement in Pernambuco was classified by the press as a "sect," in a perspective that sought to delegitimize this and other groups classified as "sects" through some kind of representations in the newspapers. The theoretical contribution of authors such as Michel de Certeau and Roger Chartier was fundamental in the way we conduct this research. / O movimento Hare Krishna chegou ao Brasil em 1973, através de membros da International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), instituição religiosa fundada em 1966, em Nova Iorque por Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. Naquele mesmo ano, esse movimento religioso chegaria a Pernambuco trazendo consigo seus membros, crenças e práticas para o espaço público do estado e despertando a atenção das pessoas e dos jornais. Nesse trabalho de dissertação, analisamos alguns dos possíveis percursos que o movimento realizou durante a sua inserção em Pernambuco e de como teria se institucionalizado e propagado no estado, entre os anos de 1973 e 1996. O objetivo principal do trabalho foi entender algumas das práticas desenvolvidas por seus membros nesse período e como elas foram representadas em alguns dos jornais locais. Pudemos compreender que, dentro da conjuntura mais ampla do debate acerca dos “novos movimentos religiosos”, o Hare Krishna em Pernambuco foi classificado pela imprensa como “seita”, numa perspectiva que pretendia deslegitimar esse e outros grupos classificados como “seitas”, através de representações nos jornais. A contribuição teórica de autores como Michel de Certeau e Roger Chartier foi fundamental na maneira como conduzimos essa pesquisa.

Nossa metodologia consistiu da realização de observação participante nas reuniões e cotidiano da Comunidade Hare Krishna de Campina Grande-PB; no levantamento de dados sobre trajetórias dos conversos; na aplicação de 39 questionários com componentes das famílias residentes no condomínio Naimisharanya e com estudantes do Instituto Jaladuta durante o ano letivo de 2014; e na realização de 14 entrevistas semiestruturadas com uma amostra não aleatória de conversos, constituída por indivíduos-tipo. / This dissertation aimed to identify social and demographic profiles of converts to Hare Krishna Moviment in the city of Camina Grande-CG, moreover to describe the processes that compound this model of conversion, with the major objective to putting into question the Weberian hypothesis of association between social stratification and religious affiliation, besides his more generalist hiphothesis about the inflluence of the linking to religious ethics and its resonance on the meaning of daily practices of converts. Our methodology consisted of participant observation in the meetings and daily at the Hare Krishna Community in Campina Grande-PB; in data on trajectories of converts; the application of 39 questionnaires with components of households in Naimisharanya Houses Complex and with students of the Jaladuta Institute during the academic year 2014. We also carryied out 14 semi-structured interviews with a non-random sample of converts, composed of individuals-type.

<p>Vårt syfte med denna uppsats var att studera varför människor väljer att ansluta sig till två olika nya religiösa rörelser, Hare Krishna-rörelsen respektive Scientologikyrkan. Dessa två rörelser skiljer sig åt på flera olika sätt.

Vårt syfte med denna uppsats var att studera varför människor väljer att ansluta sig till två olika nya religiösa rörelser, Hare Krishna-rörelsen respektive Scientologikyrkan. Dessa två rörelser skiljer sig åt på flera olika sätt. Det mest tydliga är att Hare Krishna-rörelsen har en gudsbild (monistisk) till skillnad från Scientologikyrkan som istället tror på ett högre väsen, en personlig gud. Vår utgångspunkt är antagandet att den nya tidens samhälle har skapat en större strävan efter individualitet och att samhällets medborgare söker efter tydlighet och enkelhet både vad gäller ledarskap och tro. Vi antar dessutom att samhällets sekularisering och den förändring som skett med tanke på skolans undervisning inom ämnet religion leder till en större nyfikenhet och till ett större intresse för nya religiösa rörelser. Uppsatsen grundar sig på åtta djupintervjuer, med fyra medlemmar från Hare Krishna-rörelsen och fyra från Scientologikyrkan. Vi har även använt oss av litteraturstudier för att skapa en grund för vår undersökning.

The archives of religious communities is a sparingly treated subject and christian community archives constitute the majority of the archives studied. The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the relevance of James M. O'Toole's four characteristics of religious archives put forward in his article What’s different about religious archives? Another implicit purpose is to expand the knowledge of religious community archives and include archives from other world religions. The thesis's theoretical starting-point is O'Toole's characteristics which are also used as a basis for the questions that the thesis set out to answer. The main question is to what extent O'Toole's characteristics are relevant for studying archives linked to modern religious communities operating in Sweden. The method used is interviews. A total of seven people were interviewed who had knowledge of seven religious community archives. The archives were linked to the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden, the Catholic Bishopric, the Jewish Community in Stockholm, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Triratna Buddhist Community and the Baptist Union of Sweden. With the exception of interviews, the source material consisted of literature (books and articles), web pages, archive registers and email correspondence. The result is that O'Toole's characteristics are not particularly relevant for studying archives linked to modern religious communities operating in Sweden. Religion does not seem so important for religious archives as O'Toole claims. On a scale of 0–5, the relevance of O'Toole's characteristics is 1–2. For this reason, the characteristics need to be modified. There are good opportunities for future researchers to develop the subject and supplement this study. This is a two years master’s thesis in Archival Science.
