Description

Explore the complex dynamics of New Religious Movements through a unique lens in Yearning to Belong. This Routledge publication offers a deep look into the Indian Guru-disciple Yogic tradition, combining sociology of religion with firsthand insider perspectives. Authored by a former member of the tradition, the text provides a rare look at the actual experiences of devotees. This book bridges three vital areas of study: the sociology of religion, the helping professions, and personal insider accounts. It expands current knowledge regarding how individuals convert to New Religious Movements and the processes involved in both affiliation and disengagement. By examining the spiritual experiences within Guru-disciple Yoga, readers gain a broader understanding of how these traditions function and how participants navigate their spiritual journeys. Whether you are a student of anthropology and sociology or a professional in the helping fields, this work provides significant insights into the human experience of spiritual belonging and the social structures of modern religious practices.
