Asian Religions in Transnational Perspective
The College Commons: Transnational Charisma and Traveling Spirits
Asian religious practices have traveled to the United States, taking forms such as spirit possession ceremonies in Orange County.
This event highlights Asian religious practices in the U.S., including spirit possession ceremonies in Orange County, which feature juggling with flaming incense sticks; martial arts-inspired dances with swords, lances, and bow and arrow; cross-dressing mediums (women dressing as warriors, men as beautiful princesses); and the distribution of fruit, chocolate, scarves, costume jewelry and cakes.
Through video and reporting, the USC College’s Janet Hoskins (Anthropology) and Jane Iwamura (Religion, and American Studies and Ethnicity) consider the range of practices and beliefs and their migratory natures.
