Many \u003cem\u003eMacumba\u003c\/em\u003e rituals appear to be intentionally designed to make people aware of and remember them. And other variations in ceremonies and rites seem to consist of endless, repeating cycles that are like replays, even including apparent discarnate entities, which seemingly try over and over to resolve conflicts from times long past through interactions and seeming possessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, we are often the objects of \u003cem\u003eMacumba\u003c\/em\u003e, whether on our travels or on our own home turf. It, therefore, behooves us to think of this book as not only a compendium of such variants that we may experience in our lives, but perhaps we ought to consider the myriad of Macumba rites and their variants as alternate realities which conjoin or overlap with our own in a shared universe of sorts? Or maybe even a so-called \u003cem\u003e\"Contiguous Universe\"\u003c\/em\u003e no less?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this compendium of \u003cem\u003eMacumba-like\u003c\/em\u003e rites and rituals, we broaden our view of not only what we typically consider our Judeo-Christian experiences, but also to include other space-time variants of reality in the form of heretofore predominantly ignored practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe Road to Strange: Macumba and Other Rites\u003c\/em\u003e, be prepared to explore the many stories of variants of the human experience and much more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuch \u003cem\u003e\"Macumba\"\u003c\/em\u003e and its related variants may never happen expressly to you. Still, assuredly, something strange of an inordinate space-time manifestation may invariably happen to a friend, a neighbor, or perhaps even a relative.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf but one of these tales of someone's \u003cem\u003eMacumba\u003c\/em\u003e variant event is true, what then? One must conclude that so many other reports of similar paranormal-related space-time encounters may, likewise, undoubtedly be true.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46399118114967,"sku":"9798231794492","price":1803.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798231794492.webp?v=1769047077","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-road-to-strange-macumba-and-other-rites-9798231794492","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
