摘要

巴西的大教会,上帝王国普世教会(UCKG),拥有一个全球分支网络。它的澳大利亚总部是一个充满活力的精神空间,来自世界各地的思想、人、物质文化和精神在这里交流。这篇文章跟随一小瓶石油的旅程来说明通过澳大利亚UCKG发生的全球流动。每停一站,小瓶就会在到达最终目的地之前积累精神资本。根据两年的人种学研究,我认为UCKG的全球网络允许会众获得精神资本,并使他们能够传递精神资本,从而提供个人代理,通过超自然手段克服生活困难。通过这个小瓶子的旅程,我将展示全球宗教习俗是如何在当地生活的,并强调全球流动的宗教物质文化在当地的精神意义。

The Universal Church of the Kingdom of God in Australia: Local Congregants and a Global Spiritual Network
The Brazilian megachurch, the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God (UCKG), has a global network of branches. Its Australian headquarters is a dynamic spiritual space where ideas, people, material culture and spirits are exchanged from across the globe. This article follows the journey of a single vial of oil to illustrate the global flows that take place through the UCKG Australia. With each stop the vial accrues spiritual capital before its final destination. Drawing on two years of ethnographic research, I argue that the UCKG’s global networks allow congregants access to, and enables them to pass on, spiritual capital thus providing personal agency to overcome life difficulties via supernatural means. Through this vial’s journey, I will show how global religious practices are locally lived and highlight the local spiritual significance of globally mobile religious material culture.
