Soul of a People
Por: Harold Fielding Hall
In Soul of a People, Englishman H. Fielding delves into the rich tapestry of beliefs held by the Burmese people. He presents a clear yet comprehensive exploration of Buddhism, shedding light on how the people of Myanmar embody their faith in daily life. Fielding also unveils the fascinating folk practices surrounding Nats—the spirits of those who have endured traumatic deaths and now seek solace among ancient trees. Drawing from his extensive time spent in Burma, Fielding offers an intimate, first-hand narrative that reveals his deep admiration for this unique culture. Originally published in 1898, this work remains a thought-provoking and relevant read today. (Summary by Carol Fullerton-Samsel)
