Whitmore explores the longer story of this powerful realm of the Hindu god Shiva through a holistic theoretical perspective that integrates phenomenological and systems-based approaches to the study of religion, pilgrimage, place, and ecology. He argues that close attention to places of religious significance offers a model for thinking through connections between ritual, narrative, climate destabilization, tourism, development, and disaster, and he shows how these critical components of human life in the twenty-first century intersect in the human experience of place.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Luke Whitmore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48199536804091,"sku":"9780520970151","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_553c9d6b-c560-4f2f-b297-74fd9c2fecb1.jpg?v=1770684389","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/mountain-water-rock-god-9780520970151","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
