"Domestic Hinduism", Culture of Print and the "New Religions"
Original language description
In Czech as well as in another European societies certain notions of "Indian" origin became widespread during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, especially in the context of occultism. This was enabled by certain changes in European societiescarried on by modernization processes. Modernization did not mean just rationalization, industrialization etc., but also very radical change in communication and interaction due to development of printed media. This had extraordinary impact on religion and led to privatization, detraditionalization (or rather various reconstructions of traditions) and even formation of new forms of religious organizations - even the church as we understand it today is the product of modernization, organization very different form medieval church.
