Saltwater Buddha
ISBN/GTIN

Produktbeschreibung

Fed up with teenage life in the suburbs, Jaimal Yogis ran off to Hawaii with little more than a copy of Hermann Hesse's Siddhartha and enough cash for a surfboard. His journey is a coming-of-age saga that takes him from communes to monasteries, from the warm Pacific to the icy New York shore. Equal parts spiritual memoir and surfer's tale, this is a chronicle of finding meditative focus in the barrel of a wave and eternal truth in the great salty blue.

Perhaps this is not the time to be reading about examples of suspicion of mainstream medicine in German history. Monica Black's research into spiritual healers in post-war West Germany could be read as a harbinger of Impfskeptiker to come. However, this would be a bold reading indeed - one of Black's points is in fact that the craze around witch doctoring petered out as Germany began to tackle the history of the Holocaust in the 60s. In general, I thought this was a superb piece of historical research which focuses on Bruno Gröning, a Christian healer who emerged in Herford, a small town in West Germany, before becoming subject of a national cult at the end of 1940s. If I were to criticise Black, I would point to the fact the book really is just the history of Gröning with a few other examples of witch crazes thrown in to back up her narrative. I would also say she can occasionally draw big conclusions from small facts but generally this is an excellent, thought provoking book.
