概要
How can you see the unseen? And does it matter if you don’t “believe” in it, as a scholar of religion?
This week, I’m thinking through how we, as scholars of religion (yes, that includes you if you’re listening), come to see and engage the unseen, regardless of whether we “believe” in it or can perceive it through our physical senses.
I also share how I encounter and draw on the unseen in my own intellectual work and practices, and what this has taught me about a much broader, more embodied understanding of the unseen. One that goes beyond flickering lights, things flying across rooms, or haunting silhouettes.
Follow me on socials @imanabdk for more of my thinking on the unseen.
