ItinerÃncia no Ashram: alimentando corpo e alma na Brahma Kumaris / ItinerÃncia no Ashram Itinerancy in ashram: feeding body and soul in Brahma KumarisMÃrcia AssunÃÃo AraÃjo 04 April 2012 (has links)
coordenadoria de aperfeiÃoamento de pessoal de ensino superior / O presente estudo investigou as percepÃÃes cognitivas e simbÃlicas de indivÃduos que
adotam prÃticas alimentares vegetarianas por motivaÃÃes religiosas, na cidade de
Fortaleza, pertencentes a uma linha de yoga no Ãmbito dos novos movimentos
religiosos. Este estudo teve como cenÃrio a Universidade Espiritual Mundial Brahma
Kumaris â BKWSU, na referida cidade, entre os anos de 2007 e 2011, e utilizou como
recursos metodolÃgicos a observaÃÃo participante e entrevistas semiestruturadas
com alunos e professores deste movimento espiritual de cariz neo-hindu. Inicialmente,
interessava compreender as representaÃÃes e as prÃticas relacionadas com a
alimentaÃÃo, mas ao longo da pesquisa ficou evidente a existÃncia de uma confluÃncia
semÃntica entre o sentimento religioso e alimentaÃÃo, ambos concorrendo para a
construÃÃo de um regime de vida brahmin. Assim, o alimento tem seu sentido alargado
e à tomado aqui como signo/metÃfora para se pensar a relaÃÃo corpo e alma sugerida
pelo cÃdigo de condutas â maryadas â deste movimento espiritual. As formas de
pensar, sentir e ver o mundo dos participantes deste grupo sÃo expressÃo de uma
pertenÃa coletiva que Ã, ao mesmo tempo, subjetivada e ressignificada em termos do
processo de aperfeiÃoamento de si e de sacralizaÃÃo do mundo. / The present study inquires into cognitive and symbolic perceptions of individuals from
the town of Fortaleza who adopt a vegetarian diet for religious motivations. They
belong to a yoga line, in scope of the new religious movements. This study took place
in the Brahma Kumaris World Spiritual University â BKWSU, in the aforementioned
city, between the years 2007 and 2011, and used as methodological tools participant
observation and semi-structured interviews with students and professors of this
spiritual movement with a neo-hindu face. Initial interest was to understand foodrelated
representations and practices, but as the research went on, the existence of a
semantic confluence between religious sentiment and food became evident, both
converging to the construction of a brahmin life regimen. So, food has its meaning
widened and is considered here as a sign/metaphor to think the body and soul
relationship, suggested by the behavior code â maryadas â of this spiritual movement.
For the participants of this group, forms of thinking, feeling and seeing the world are
the expression of a collective belonging, which is, at the same time, subjectified and
resignified in terms of the self-improvement process and sacralisation of the world.

Previous issue date: 2017-02-21 / Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - CNPq / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / The Hare Krishna movement arrived in Brazil in 1973 through members of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), the religious institution founded in 1966 in New York by Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. 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.

The Transformations and Challenges of a Jain Religious Aspirant from Layperson to Ascetic: An Anthropological Study of Shvetambar Terapanthi Female MumukshusAshok Kumar, Komal 22 March 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores the challenges that Shvetambar Terapanthi Jain female mumukshus (religious aspirants) face during their training at the Parmarthik Shikshan Sanstha, an institute unique to this sect dedicated to training young females to become nuns. The educational requirements, secluded social environment, disciplined rules, and monastic hierarchies train aspirants to understand the demands of nunhood. Based on interviews and observations, aspirants express their struggle to balance the personal desire to progress spiritually toward liberation (moksha) that motivated them to renounce with the requirement to raise their juniors as part of the ascetic community, a new kind of familial structure. The disparity in the training of female and male renouncers in the Terapanth reveals problems that remain in the gendered way female renouncers are treated in their training. Renunciation is shown not to be gender neutral, leading to a more nuanced understanding of Jain asceticism in contemporary India.

Previous issue date: 2014-08-28 / Apesar do crescente número de grupos religiosos tidos como tradicionalistas, ainda
são poucos os estudos que abordam a vertente do tradicionalismo católico. Diante disso,
entende-se que a abordagem, acerca dos Arautos do Evangelho, pode acrescentar
informações, auxiliando na compreensão da lógica e da dinâmica desses grupos.
Na presente dissertação procurou-se investigar as formas e meios utilizados pelos
Arautos do Evangelho como movimento tradicionalista no campo religioso.
Utilizou-se de recurso referencial para obtenção das informações nativas, a Revista
Arautos do Evangelho, bem como sítios eletrônicos, blogs, redes sociais e, sobretudo, a
página oficial dos religiosos em questão.
Na análise foi utilizada literatura diversa, com ênfase em estudos sobre novos
movimentos católicos de vertente tradicionalista.
Por fim, inferiu-se que os Arautos do Evangelho oferecem, sobretudo aos jovens, uma
sistema de sentido, plausível e bem estruturado, suficiente para apresentarem-se como mais
uma opção de modelo de vida na modernidade. / Despite the growing number of religious groups seen as traditionalists, there are few studies
on the part of the catholic traditionalism. Therefore, it is understood that the approach , about
the Heralds of the Gospel, can add information, helping to understand the logic and dynamics
of these groups.
In this dissertation attempts to investigate the ways and means used by the Heralds
of the Gospel as traditionalist movement in the religious field.
It was used as a reference resource for obtaining the native information, the Journal
Heralds of the Gospel, and electronic sites, blogs, social networks and, above all, the official
site of the religious concerned.
In other literature analysis was used, with emphasis on studies of new traditionalist
Catholic movements of the present.
Finally, it was inferred that the Heralds of the Gospel offer, especially to young
people, a sense system, plausible and well structured, enough to present themselves as more a
life model option in modernity.

Nyreligiösa rörelser i dagens gymnasieskolorAlldén Häll, Emmilie, Saukko, Johanna January 2020 (has links)
The purpose of this paper is to study how some upper secondary teachers define and understand the terms New Religious Movement, New Religiosity and cult. We also look at what the teachers teach about and why they pick those specific parts of the course. Firstly, to get a wider view of this subject we looked at previous research about the teaching of New Religious Movements. In addition to the previous research we did our own research where we interviewed upper secondary teachers from two different schools. Secondly, for our results we analysed the transcripts by using two different theoretical frameworks: religious didactics in the form of abductive perspective in connection to the didactical questions - what, why and how? We have also used a hermeneutic interpretation when looking at the empirical material.Through our research we found that teachers have some difficulties defining the terms “New Religious Movements”, “New Religiosity” and “Cults”. They also have a problem with differentiating them from each other. The research shows that even the teachers’ selection, planning and implementation of their teaching varies between the schools for different reasons. Some of this stems from the teachers’ capacity within the subject, different interpretations of the syllabus and the influence that students have on the teaching.

Recreating Religion: The Response to Joseph Smith’s Innovations in the Second Prophetic Generation of MormonismBlythe, Christopher James 01 May 2011 (has links)
On June 27, 1844, Joseph Smith, the founder of The Church of Jesus Christ ofLatter-day Saints, was assassinated. In the wake of his death, a number of would-besuccessors emerged. Each of these leaders - part of what I call the second propheticgeneration - established a unique vision of Mormonism.
In 1844, Mormonism was in the middle of a major shift in its character. JosephSmith’s death left numerous theological and practical questions unresolved. This thesis argues that, rather than merely a succession struggle of competition and power, a principal function of the second prophetic generation in Mormonism was to respond to Joseph Smith’s innovations and to forge alternate coherent (re-)interpretations of the Mormon faith that could continue into the future without access to the original prophet.
Two major issues that required reframing in a post-Smith world were issues ofdomesticity and marriage and hierarchical structure. One or both of these issues areconsidered in the thought of four second-generation prophets: Alpheus Cutler, William Smith, Charles Thompson, and Lyman Wight. Their response to these questions,ultimately, resulted in distinct traditions within the Mormon movement.

A Descriptive Analysis of the Current Status of Paid Religious Broadcasting on National TelevisionBills, Wayne R. 01 January 1984 (has links) (PDF)
In examining the use of paid television by various evangelical organizations (the "Electronic Church") as contrasted with its use by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS), several important differences were discovered. First, the programs of the electronic church are usually designed much like a normal Sunday service with a "preacher" and "congregation" (the T.V. viewers). The LDS approach has been to communicate religious principles through the use of a story. Their productions are attractive to a large audience because they often feature a well-known television or motion picture celebrity, and are aired during prime-time viewing hours.The electronic church pays for its air time and production costs with money solicited from viewers. A part of every broadcast is devoted to increasing the mailing lists of the particular organization. The Mormons, on the other hand, do not ask for donations from the television audience. Their television time is paid for with the contributions of their church members.The study recommends: 1) That the LDS Church continue to make use of public service time wherever and whenever possible. 2) That the LDS Church not attempt to develop a program that could air weekly and act as a form of competition for the audiences of the electronic church. 3) That LDS communications officials carefully monitor the results of paid television specials in an attempt to identify which program elements make the broadcasts successful, and then use those elements in maximizing the success of future paid broadcasts.

Nyreligiositet i populärkultur : Innehållsanalys av tre filmer utifrån teorin om nyreligiösa rörelsers `höga spänning´ till omvärlden / New Religiosity in Popular Culture : Content Analysis of three Films, with the Theory of New Religious Movements `High Tension´ against their SurroundingJonsson, Erica January 2022 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to contribute to an increased understanding of New Religion and how it’s portrayed in film. The source material is three different films, Midsommar, The Wicker Man and The Sacrament. The method is a content analysis with both quantitative and qualitative approaches and a coding scheme with the coding units, attire, choice of words, rite and context. Stark and Bainbridge's theory is essential, which defines New Religious Movements that focuses on their high tension with their socio-cultural environment. Previous research describes what new religion is, how to examine new religion in popular culture and how it is portrayed in film. The result of the study confirms that The New Religious Movements is portrayed negatively in the films, but the common factor is violence, violence as in human sacrifice and mass suicide.
