Description

Explore the deep connections between the Spiritual Baptist Faith and Orisha Work in Trinidad, West Indies. This academic study from Routledge offers a detailed portrait of two religions that share a common foundation in the traditional religion of the Yoruba in West Africa. Through a focused look at the phenomenon of spirit possession, this work examines how worship functions within these communities. The text highlights the different ways identity is experienced during spiritual practice. In the Spiritual Baptist Faith, individuals possessed by the Holy Spirit maintain their own identity. In contrast, Orisha Work involves a process where those possessed by the orishas actually become the spirits themselves. By examining the Yoruba concept of self, where identity is dependent on these spiritual connections, this book provides essential insights for students and researchers of Latin American and Caribbean studies. It serves as a significant resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the religious landscapes of the West Indies.
