Twelver Shi'i Self-Flagellation Rites in Contemporary Syria
This book examines contested Muharram practices, as well as the institutions and authorities that promoted or condemned them until 2011, when most Shi'is fled Syria. For 40 years, the Syrian shrine town of Sayyida Zaynab was a place of miracles, where violence engendered healing. To experience miraculous healing, Shi'is attended mourning gatherings, studied at seminaries, self-flagellated, and frequented spiritual healers. Supported by the political establishment, Shi'i institutions arose to serve Iraqi refugees and Iranian pilgrims. Seminaries promoted various practices, some highly controversial. Wounded, traumatized, impoverished, and oppressed, asylum seekers from Iraq who performed flagellations sought salvation - a worldly restoration requiring saintly beneficence. In Syria, where Shi'is were often asylum seekers from Iraq, daily concerns centred on the here and now, on survival, and on the bitterness they felt. They prayed for justice and retribution, as much as for physical and psychological healing.

Babylonian Jews and Sasanian Imperialism in Late Antiquity
From the image offered by the Babylonian Talmud, Jewish elites were deeply embedded within the Sasanian Empire (224-651 CE). The Talmud is replete with stories and discussions that feature Sasanian kings, Zoroastrian magi, fire temples, imperial administrators, Sasanian laws, Persian customs, and more quotidian details of Jewish life. Yet, in the scholarly literature on the Babylonian Talmud and the Jews of Babylonia, the Sasanian Empire has served as a backdrop to a decidedly parochial Jewish story, having little if any direct impact on Babylonian Jewish life and especially the rabbis. Babylonian Jews and Sasanian Imperialism in Late Antiquity advances a radically different understanding of Babylonian Jewish history and Sasanian rule. Building upon recent scholarship, Simcha Gross portrays a more immanent model of Sasanian rule, within and against which Jews invariably positioned and defined themselves. Babylonian Jews realized their traditions, teachings, and social position within the political, social, religious, and cultural conditions generated by Sasanian rule.

Feng Shui
Feng Shui: The Alchemy of Space, Time, and Spirit is not just a guide to arranging furniture or enhancing luck-it is a return to the ancient roots of Feng Shui as a sacred Daoist art. In this groundbreaking work, Laing Z. Matthews offers a transformative vision of Feng Shui as a living practice of alignment, presence, and cosmic reverence-an art that transcends charts and formulas to become a path of spiritual attunement.Drawing from classical Daoist texts, timeless metaphors, and lived experience, Matthews reframes Feng Shui as a practice of feeling, listening, and surrendering. The house is not a static object, but a living being. It breathes as you breathe, holds memory as you dream, and reflects the hidden patterns of your life. The placement of objects is secondary to the cultivation of awareness-the subtle art of attuning to the breath of the cosmos, the rhythm of the seasons, the pull of the land, and the flow of unseen Qi.Through poetic invocations, practical exercises, reflection prompts, and case studies, Feng Shui: The Alchemy of Space, Time, and Spirit invites readers to walk the path of the geomancer as a servant of the Dao, not a manipulator of space. It weaves the foundational principles of Form School and Compass School with deeper spiritual insights-revealing how Qi moves through homes, cities, and the human heart alike.This is a book for seekers-not those looking for quick fixes, but those ready to embrace the quiet, patient work of listening to the land, feeling the house, and becoming part of the cosmic flow. It challenges commercialized myths of Feng Shui and restores it to its rightful place as an art of alignment, humility, and care for the Earth.Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or a curious beginner, this book will deepen your understanding of Feng Shui as a living Dao-not a system to master, but a path to walk with reverence.In these pages, you will learn: How to read the energy of a space through feeling, not just formulas.How landforms, directions, and cosmic cycles shape our lives.How to live in rhythm with time-seasons, solar terms, moon phases, and cosmic breath.How to cultivate daily presence, listen to the unseen, and serve the greater harmony.Feng Shui: The Alchemy of Space, Time, and Spirit is not just a book. It is a transmission. A reminder. A call to walk lightly on this Earth, to bow at the threshold, and to breathe with the stars.
