| Publisher Description: Shaman, Saiva, and Sufi, is one of the earliest and best looks at the spiritual mannerisms of Malaysia. Including incantations, marriage rites, funerary practices, and various superstition and folklore, it is at once a paranormal, anthropological, and occult work. Especially focusing on the prevalent Muslim and Hindu inclusions of the Perak and Kelantan provinces, its lore ranges from the already then-ancient to the post-colonial and then modern. |
