關於本電子書
“Temple Fires” explores the central role of fire in religious practices across history and cultures. The book examines fire not just as a practical element, but as a potent symbol of purification, transformation, and communication with the divine. From ancient cosmologies to modern faiths, fire serves as a tangible connection between the human and spiritual realms, shaping rituals and beliefs in profound ways. Did you know that archaeological evidence reveals hearths in ritual spaces, indicating the primal role of fire in early religious systems? Or that many cultures, from ancient Greece to the pre-Columbian Americas, used fire in cleansing rituals and as a medium for offerings? The book unfolds in three key sections, beginning with the primal role of fire in early religious systems, then moving into specific cultural expressions of fire rituals in ancient civilizations. Finally, it explores the symbolic evolution of fire in major world religions such as Hinduism, Christianity, and Buddhism, tracing how early fire-based practices were adapted and reinterpreted. By synthesizing archaeological findings, religious texts, and anthropological studies, “Temple Fires” provides a fresh perspective on the study of religion and offers valuable insights into the enduring power of religious symbolism and ritual practices.
