| the book of incense: Folk Literati, Contested Tradition, and Heritage in Contemporary China Ziying You, 2020-02-11 In this important ethnography Ziying You explores the role of the folk literati in negotiating, defining, and maintaining local cultural heritage. Expanding on the idea of the elite literati—a widely studied pre-modern Chinese social group, influential in cultural production—the folk literati are defined as those who are skilled in classical Chinese, knowledgeable about local traditions, and capable of representing them in writing. The folk literati work to maintain cultural continuity, a concept that is expressed locally through the vernacular phrase: incense is kept burning. You's research focuses on a few small villages in Hongtong County, Shanxi Province in contemporary China. Through a careful synthesis of oral interviews, participant observation, and textual analysis, You presents the important role the folk literati play in reproducing local traditions and continuing stigmatized beliefs in a community context. She demonstrates how eight folk literati have reconstructed, shifted, and negotiated local worship traditions around the ancient sage-Kings Yao and Shun as well as Ehuang and Nüying, Yao's two daughters and Shun's two wives. You highlights how these individuals' conflictive relationships have shaped and reflected different local beliefs, myths, legends, and history in the course of tradition preservation. She concludes her study by placing these local traditions in the broader context of Chinese cultural policy and UNESCO's Intangible Cultural Heritage program, documenting how national and international discourses impact actual traditions, and the conversations about them, on the ground. |

| the book of incense: Incense and Sensibility Sonali Dev, 2021-07-06 The author of Recipe for Persuasion--not only one of the best but one of the bravest romance novelists working today (Shelf Awareness)--adds an Indian American twist to Jane Austen's classic Sense and Sensibility in this delightful retelling that is a feast for the senses. Yash Raje, California's first serious Indian gubernatorial candidate, has always known exactly what he wants--and how to use his privileged background to get it. He attributes his success to a simple mantra: control your feelings and you can control the world. But when a hate-fueled incident at a rally critically injures his friend, Yash's easy life suddenly feels like a lie, his control an illusion. When he tries to get back on the campaign trail, he blacks out with panic. Desperate to keep Yash's condition from leaking to the media, his family turns to the one person they trust--his sister's best friend, India Dashwood, California's foremost stress management coach. Raised by a family of yoga teachers, India has helped San Francisco's high strung overachievers for a decade without so much as altering her breath. But this man--with his boundless ambition, simmering intensity, and absolute faith in his political beliefs--is like no other. Yash has spent a lifetime repressing everything to succeed. Including their one magical night ten years ago--a too brief, too bright passion that if rekindled threatens the life he's crafted for himself. Exposing the secrets might be the only way to save him but it's also guaranteed to destroy the dream he's willingly shouldered for his family and community . . . until now. |

| the book of incense: Travelling the Incense Route Barbara Toy, 2009-09-30 She has a gift for people; she has an eye for places. - The Times The Incense Route is one of the most ancient and important highways in the world. It was once a rival to the Silk Road, at a time when faith in the mystic power of incense was at its height and its traffic - frankincense and myrrh, spices from India, gold and exotic African animal skins - was the lifeblood of the countries through which it passed. Barbara Toy set out to travel the length of this long-forgotten route at a time of particular turbulence in the region and became the first western woman to have made the journey. Beginning in Bir Ali, Can'a of ancient times, she passed through war zones in Yemen, joined a band of pilgrims as far as Mecca, forged on to Jeddah and Medina, explored the breath-taking Nabataean city of Madain Saleh and then turned north, to Midian, Aqaba, Petra, Amman and finally Damascus. Travelling the Incense Route is both a gripping account of intrepid travel and a portrait of Arabia unlike any other. |

| the book of incense: Incense from Golden Bowls Rosemond Opare-Kumi, 2020-05-11 We hardly document our prayers but have you ever wondered where prayers of saints go And how they fulfill the purpose for which they are sent? There is ample evidence that victories are won on earth by the prayers of God's people. He calls them His People and expects them to pray. When they do, angels collect the prayers into Golden Bowls and present to God in heaven as sweet smelling incense. The Angels pour back the prayers on earth as incense to win the victories and purpose for which they were sent. In this book, the Author examines selected prayers of saints from Genesis to Revelation and the resultant victories as incentive for continuous prayer by saints. The evidence of answered prayer from these biblical encounters prompted her to publish in addition, the several months of consistent monthly prayers she raised based on the Lord's Prayer as a sequel to her book The Lord's Prayer: The forgotten Prayer. It also serves as evidence that His people prayed and continue to pray His WILL. As the prayers of Gods people were documented and have become a legacy for us, so is this edition of the first three years of praying the Lord's Prayer a legacy for His people. As revealed in the Lord's Prayer book, the content is complete and all-encompassing If God answers the prayer of His people according to His WILL then without a doubt, He will answer the entire content of the Lord's prayer because it is His WILL. She invites His people to this first edition of the documented prayer; a sequel to 'The Lord's Prayer: The Forgotten Prayer'. |

| the book of incense: Incense at the Altar David B. Honey, 2001 The discipline of Sinology, as it has been developed in the West, is rooted in philology. Despite the variety of new scholarly fashions and approaches to the study of premodern China that have arisen during the past half-century, the careful examination of texts remains fundamental for all serious Sinological work. In this we are beholden to those European, and latterly, American, scholars who, over several generations, painstakingly established the standards for such work. But no comprehensive history of the field has heretofore been published in a Western language. Now Professor Honey offers just such a history of Sinology, spanning its beginnings in the first efforts of seventeenth-century Jesuit missionaries to the growing disciplinary fragmentation of the field in the second half of the twentieth century. Honey gives his most thorough attention to the major figures of French, German, Dutch, British, and American Sinology from approximately 1800 to 1980, with extensive discussion of their most significant works and individual techniques. This is a book of special importance for every student of China who cares about the history of the field. |

But many people aren’t sure how to enter into this realm—or how to go deeper in the Spirit. Joshua Mills explains that, much more than sensing what God is doing, we can participate in the supernatural on a daily basis through divine portals, or gates. In this study guide companion to his book Power Portals, Joshua clearly shows believers how they can become conduits of God’s power. Within a power portal, we may experience a sudden realization of God’s presence, an abundance of healing, spontaneous joy, signs and wonders, angelic activity, an increase in spiritual dreams and visions, or extravagant provision. Some portals can be activated in our own bodies through the heart, mouth, eyes and ears, mind, innermost being, hands, and feet. There are also direct heavenly portals and geographical portals, special places where we can experience the release of God’s power. The Power Portals Study Guide, which can be used by either individuals or groups, contains some brand-new material to further your understanding of these gateways to the Spirit realm. The guide is also filled with key points from the book, thought questions, review questions, and supernatural activations. Get ready to awaken your connection to the Spirit realm. Get ready to encounter Power Portals! “Joshua Mills…has taken deep spiritual revelation and translated it into language that any reader can understand and apply to daily life.” —Becky Thompson “Joshua Mills…gives you teachings you can trust and revelations that get you results.” —Tony Kemp #PowerPortalsBook |

The first baby to survive after several miscarriages, Kimi grows up in a mansion at the top of Mumbai’s Pali Hill, surrounded by love and privilege. But at eleven years old, she develops a rare illness that requires her to be confined to a germ-free ivory tower in her home, with only the Arabian Sea churning outside her window for company . . . until one person dares venture into her world. Tasked at fourteen years old with supporting his family, Rahul Savant shows up to wash Kimi’s windows, and an unlikely friendship develops across the plastic curtain of her isolation room. As years pass, Rahul becomes Kimi’s eyes to the outside world—and she becomes his inspiration to better himself by enrolling in the police force. But when a life-saving heart transplant offers the chance of a real future, both must face all that ties them together—and all that keeps them apart . . .
