| | New Moon Rising 49: Sarava! Afro-Brazilian Magic by Janet Dugan |
 | | It should be noted that all these belief systems are relatively recent in terms of written history; while many claim a long oral tradition the actual organization and official establishment of the religions occurred around the turn of the century. | | | Though Brazil may seem distant and her folk religions unfamiliar at first glance, there are elements of these traditions that are also recognizable in Santara, Amerindian and Wiccan practices. | | | Begins with an overview of Brazilian mystery religions, focusing on Spiritism, Umbanda, Candombl, Macumba/Quimbanda and local Amerindian traditions. |

| | Jorge Luiz F. Domingues of Brazil, one of the participants at the Salvador conference, told the Central Committee in Geneva that for centuries Candombl had to be practiced in secrecy and that even today the relationship of the Christian churches to this religion was not free of tension. | | | A sensitive issue discussed at a major conference on mission and evangelism organized by the WCC last year in the Brazilian city of Salvador was the relationship between the Christian religion and traditional or indigenous religions. | | | Salvador, which is unusual among Brazil's major cities in that most of its population is black, is also home to an Afro-Brazilian religion, Candombl, which has many followers in the region. |

| | Disc one includes the hypnotic drumming and chanting of the region's major neo-African religions: arar_, candombl_, dugu, santeria and voodoo. | | | The similarities between them - stirring call-and-response vocals over irresistible waves of rhythm -- are startling, although the Brazilian candombl_ and Haitian voodoo tracks are played at breakneck speed compared to the slower, sinuous santeria number from Cuba. |

| | Spirituality & Health: Working the Spirit |
| | Although each evidences distinctive qualities, these religions share a sense of spirit "worked through the body in ceremonies of rhythm, music and movement." Murphy does a fine job conveying the physical and emotional vibrancy and the communal solidarity of these worship services. | | | In this scholarly work, Joseph M. Murphy, a professor of theology at Georgetown University, examines the rituals and ceremonies of five African-American religions — vodou in Haiti, candombl in Brazil, santera in Cuba, the Revival Zion Church in Jamaica, and the Black Church in the United States. |

| | He then paints with broad strokes the sensibilities of many African religions, their syncretic blending with Christianity into new traditions such as Santer& and Candomblˆ, and the conversion of many American slaves to Christianity (particularly the Methodist and Baptist sects). | | | He sweeps through the independent black church movement of the 19th century, chronicling how the joy of emancipation dissipated into bleak despair as African-Americans in the late 19th and early 20th centuries struggled to achieve economic and social parity. | | | The book opens memorably with a glimpse of a 15th-century slave raid off the western coast of Africa, with Raboteau powerfully demonstrating the devastation slavery wrought upon individuals and families. |

| | A strong African influence derives from the slaves brought here to work in the sugar cane fields more than 400 years ago, and their rich cultural heritage is evident in the music, dance, cuisine and the candombl religion. | | | This intriguing city with a population of over two million is also the capital of the State of Bahia. | | | This is in stark contrast to the city's Portuguese colonial past dating to 1549 with the founding of Salvador, which marked the beginning of the permanent occupation of Brazil by the Portuguese. |
