In this remarkable book, Malidoma Some explores the essential role ritual plays in maintaining community and examines the structure common to all ritual. By telling stories of the rituals of his native West African Dagara culture, and his own experiences in the tribal community, he makes a convincing case that the lack of ritual in the Western world is a fundamental reason that the fabric of society is unravelling.

Ritual is what's missing from the Western world
Revisado: 10-30-24
This book very eloquently describes the indigenous rituals and what is lacking in Western cultures. While I don't believe we should use the rituals of other cultures as our own, I do believe we should have rituals of our own. Not just customs, but real sacred communal and individual rituals and rites of passage. Rituals bring community, completion, celebration and mark important transitions. They must be done intentionally and not for show. The book describes this intentionality well. I'll be reading this again.
