New Age practices and their ritualized actions have been primarily based on the creation of sacred spaces through immediate interaction, proximity, affect, healing, bodily engagement, and emotional exchange. In the COVID 19 pandemic context, however, such spiritual intimacy has been challenged if not compromised. New Age practitioners have faced the necessity to become ritually and spiritually innovative and establish new forms of sacred spaces to accommodate their performances. Drawing on long-term fieldwork on the theme of New Age spirituality and healing in Lisbon, Portugal, and Athens, Greece, this article offers an account of how New Age spiritual creativity was performed in the context of the pandemic, while exploring how different yet intertwined sacred spaces are created, and the role that (auto)ethnographic embodiment and research knowledge plays in this process.

The veteran journalist for the San Francisco Chronicle’s religion beat engages these two trends to ask the following questions: “How does the psychedelic revival fit into the larger story of American religion” (x), why do few people in the PR connect entheogenic experiences to their own religious traditions, and what can “mainstream churches and synagogues” (xi) and “entheogenic explorers” (xi) learn from each other? To address these questions, Lattin explores historical precedent for and contemporary manifestations of entheogenic activism over seven overlapping chapters.

Rainbow Gatherings are alternative grassroots events that are held as weeks-long camps in natural settings. The Gatherings can be described as temporary intentional communities and transformational events, advocating many central ideals of Western counterculture and alternative-holistic spirituality, inter alia, by employing radical alternatives to market economy, centralized leadership, and religious institutions. These non-commercial and nonviolent Gatherings are fully inclusive and participatory, and before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there were dozens of events in Europe annually. The essay depicts how the pandemic and related restrictions were experienced and interpreted among the participants of the 2021 European Rainbow Gathering and describes relevant aspects of the underlying religious and cultural context. The essay connects the observations to recent research on “conspirituality” in its contexts of cultural views, expression, and practices.

Bila Tserkva was a true backwater, one of a cluster of poor, Romanian-speaking villages in an isolated corner of the newly conquered and remote Soviet region of Transcarpathia. Its most distinctive feature was its large population of Jehovah’s Witnesses. In 1949, the state arrested seven men from that community, tried them as dangerous subversives belonging to an underground network aimed at destroying the Soviet Union, and sentenced them to 25 years in prison camps.

K. V. Desikachar), Iyengar Yoga (founded by B. K. S. Iyengar), and Ashtanga Yoga (founded by K. Pattabhi Jois). She demonstrates how the systems’ different “yoga philosophies”—learned within social environments consisting of physical spaces, other practitioners, and teachers rooted in each system—lead to different experiences, understandings, and meanings for each system’s practitioners. Despite their founders’ shared roots as students of Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, the three systems diverge from one another in practice, experience, and philosophy of yoga. Ciołkosz examines these divergences and their effects on the creation and understanding of yoga bodies and practice within each system. The book is divided into two primary sections.
