Book Description
In 1908, the ruler of the Balinese realm of Klungkung and more than 100 members of his family and court were massacred when they marched deliberately into the fire of the Dutch colonial army. The question of what their action meant and its continued significance in contemporary Klungkung forms the basis of Margaret Wiener's complex anthropolological history. Wiener challenges colonial and academic claims that Klungkung had no "real" power and argues that such claims enabled colonial domination. By focusing on Balinese discourses she makes clear the choices open to Balinese, both at the time of the Dutch conquest and in its narration. At the same time, she shows how these discourses, which revolve around magical weapons acquired from invisible agents such as gods, spirits, and ancestors, offer an alternative understanding of Klungkung's power. Moving between Balinese and Dutch narratives and between past and present, Wiener critiques colonial accounts by recounting Balinese memories and interpretations. Her attention to history and local situations illuminates the ways in which colonialism and orientalist scholarship have obscured the power of indigenous rulers and shows how Klungkung, once Bali's paramount realm, was relegated to a peripheral corner of the Indonesian nation-state. Both as a fascinating story and as a rich example of interdisciplinary scholarship, this book will interest students of colonialism, anthropology, history, religion, and Southeast Asia.

Book Description
Invisible Realm is a profoundly and overlooked uncomplicated authority that accesses all dimensions. That invisible energy cannot sleep, never slumber, never get tired, always powerful, able to do whatever, able to travel faster than the speed of light to anywhere into different dimension through multi-universe and back in a blink of an eye and gain insight into anything that needs to be dealt with. In that Kingdom, everything is known, and it can be accomplished. Much of the book's plea comes from the authentic but ignored jungle Enchantment encryptions to reach past the limitations of publicly recognized academics to spotlight the Mugo and the Hitilasha Clans who are as unwavering in their bold literary gaze as they are unmerciful in their obsessive hop with this common denominator of Self-assurance.

Book Description
Christopher White points to ways that both spiritual practices and scientific speculation about multiverses and invisible dimensions are efforts to peer into the hidden elements and even existential meaning of the universe. Creatively appropriated, these ideas can restore a spiritual sense that the world is greater than anything our eyes can see.
