摘要

鲁尔曼雄心勃勃的《上帝是如何变得真实的》(How God Becomes Real)是她之前的《当上帝回应》(When God Talks Back)的姊妹书,它超越了后者,包含了一系列引人入胜的研究,涵盖了人类学民族志工作、对个体差异的心理学研究,以及对文化在宗教体验中的作用的社会逻辑见解。根据在美国、英国、印度和加纳进行的研究,鲁尔曼以其无可置疑的特点勾勒出了一个令人信服的模型,解释了为什么有些人会报告生动的、经常是强烈的宗教或精神感官体验,而另一些人——尽管同样坚定的信仰和努力——却没有。在这一过程中,她提出了一些重要的概念和纠正,比如暗含的坚持,即宗教信仰不是一个是/否的问题,而是一种微妙的、混乱的、与生活的情境谈判。同样,“中间”作为体验性的第三空间被引入,在这里发生了大多数与“看不见的其他人”的相遇——不是个人的内心生活,也不是他们的Umwelt。本书涵盖的主题包括许多人关于神和灵魂的灵活本体论(“信仰框架”)(第1章),“私人但共享的”想象世界(“悖论”)(第2章),以及祈祷及其与元认知的联系(第6章)。至关重要的是,Luhrmann提出的模型依赖于关于心灵和外部世界之间边界的文化信仰(称为“孔隙度”),个人倾向于被自己的想象或感知所吸引(“吸收”的结构)。事实上,虽然没有明确说明,但这本书精心挑选的内容巧妙地抓住了个人的宗教信仰——即宗教经验和实践以及与之相关的主观意义——是如何深刻地个人化和不可避免地社会文化化的。

Jingle-jangle? Spiritual voices, absorption, and proneness to hallucinations in Tanya Luhrmann’s “How God Becomes Real”
Luhrmann ’ s ambitious How God Becomes Real , something of a sister volume to her previous When God Talks Back , goes beyond the latter to encompass a fascinating array of research, spanning anthropological ethnographic work, psychological research into individual di ff erences, and socio-logical insights into the role of culture in religious experience. Drawing on studies conducted in the USA, UK, India, and Ghana, Luhrmann ’ s characteristically impeccable prose sketches out a convincing model of why some people report vivid and often intense religious or spiritual sensory experiences, and others — despite equally strong beliefs and e ff ort — do not. Along the way, she pre-sents important concepts and correctives, such as the implied insistence that religious belief is not a yes/no question but a nuanced, messy, and situational negotiation with life. Likewise, the “ in-between ” is helpfully introduced as an experiential third space where most encounters with “ invisible others ” take place — not the inner life of the individual but not their Umwelt either. The book covers themes such as the fl exible ontology held by many regarding gods and spirits ( “ faith frames ” ) (Chapter 1), “ private-but-shared ” imagined worlds ( “ paracosms ” ) (Chapter 2), and prayer and its links with metacognition (Chapter 6). Crucially, the model Luhrmann proposes depends upon both cultural beliefs regarding the boundary between mind and the outer world (referred to as “ porosity ” ), and the individual tendency to become absorbed in what one imagines or perceives (the construct of “ absorption ” ). Indeed, without saying so explicitly, the carefully selected content of the book ably captures how individual religiosity — that is, religious experiences and practices and the subjective meaning attached to them — is both deeply personal and ineludibly socio-cultural.
