Synopsis
The story of a small Florida community that has drawn spiritual seekers for over 125 years Callingitself a "metaphysical mecca," the small town of Cassadaga, betweenOrlando and Daytona Beach in central Florida, was established more than125 years ago on the principle of continuous life, the idea that spiritsof the dead commune with the living. Though the founders of Cassadagahave passed on to the "spirit plane," the quaint Victorian town remainsthe oldest continuously active Spiritualist center in the South and wasadded to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. While thecommunity has often been sensationalized and misrepresented, this is thefirst serious work to examine its history, people, culturalenvironment, and religious system. After presenting an overview ofnineteenth-century religion, the book explores the town's early years,distinctive architecture, ritual life, core beliefs, healing work, andview of the future. It also probes the extent to which Cassadaga hasassimilated New Age beliefs and reflects larger trends in contemporaryAmerican religious culture. The study includes a group biographybased on interviews with four residents, plus a chapter on the colorfullife of Eloise Page, a practicing medium in Cassadaga for more than 40years. In addition, it features 47 photographs that guide readersthrough the town and portray residents engaged in various sacred andeveryday activities., The story of a small Florida community that has drawn spiritual seekers for over 125 years Calling itself a "metaphysical mecca," the small town of Cassadaga, between Orlando and Daytona Beach in central Florida, was established more than 125 years ago on the principle of continuous life, the idea that spirits of the dead commune with the living.

- *****- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoSeller packaged my item very carefully and shipped it out quickly, and it arrived earlier than the estimated time. Sadly the seller didn’t note in the description or in any of the listing images that this ‘brand new’ book had some staining along the edges of the pages. Personally I would’ve listed this book as “used but good condition” instead of brand new. But I’m just glad to have this book since I’ve been looking for it for a while, so it’s ok.
