  Among the world’s most recognizable man-made structures, the Dome of the Rock – known in Arabic as the Qubbat as-Sakara – is also one of its most mysterious. Although much of the Dome’s construction, reconstruction, and later additions are well-known from historical texts and archeological work, what it represents, why it was built where it was, and even its use remain the subject of scholarly controversy. Known for its immense size and beauty, and also for being located in the middle of Jerusalem, one of the world’s holiest cities, the Dome of the Rock has been the focus of political leaders who wished to legitimize their rule, religious warriors who believed that it empowered their weapons, and pilgrims who thought it was a site of salvation and enlightenment. As it drew these often diverse and sometimes disparate people to it, it has served the purposes of devout Jews, Muslims, and Christians, who -- although often not peacefully sharing the site -- seem to recognize its spiritual importance. 
  The Dome of the Rock has been many things to many people over the centuries, and historians, art historians, and archaeologists have studied the Dome of the Rock and its background extensively. Academics have created an accurate chronology of its life, as well as details about how the monument was built, including the construction and artistic techniques that were used. The dome was built on the site of what is believed to have been the Solomonic Temple that the Israelites built to worship their god, Yahweh, setting the stage for the entire area to be a holy site for the Abrahamic religions over the following centuries. Historians believe that the Umayyad Muslims saw this background as a prime location to build one of the greatest religious complexes in the Islamic world.

  Osho

  In Tantric Transformation, we are introduced to the sacred and ancient tradition of tantra by a contemporary tantric master Osho. We are given a detailed map of tantra: inner man, inner woman; the meeting of man and woman; the transformation of energy through sex, love, and meditation. Based on the Royal Song of Saraha, we are not just introduced to an Asian sex tradition, but with Osho we enter the higher levels of transformation. Here, we find tantra as a door to freedom: freedom from all mind constructs and mind games; freedom from all structures; and freedom from the other.
  Love and meditation merge and provide a path to liberation. Tantric Transformation is a very alive, concrete audiobook for exploration of our own energy, of our own inner space. You don't just listen to Osho; you undefine yourself. (See The Tantra Experience by Osho - part of the same series.)
  Chapters:
  
  - The Tantra Map

  - Breaking the Four Seals

  Muslim Cool - Race Religion and...

  Su'ad Abdul Khabeer

  This groundbreaking study of race, religion, and popular culture in the twenty-first century United States focuses on a new concept, "Muslim Cool." Muslim Cool is a way of being an American Muslim—displayed in ideas, dress, social activism in the 'hood, and in complex relationships to state power. Constructed through hip hop and the performance of Blackness, Muslim Cool is a way of engaging with the Black American experience by both Black and non-Black young Muslims that challenges racist norms in the U.S. as well as dominant ethnic and religious structures within American Muslim communities. 
   
   
   
  Su'ad Abdul Khabeer illuminates the ways in which young and multiethnic US Muslims draw on Blackness to construct their identities as Muslims. Thus, by countering the notion that Blackness and the Muslim experience are fundamentally different, Muslim Cool poses a critical challenge to dominant ideas that Muslims are "foreign" to the United States and puts Blackness at the center of the study of American Islam. Yet Muslim Cool also demonstrates that connections to Blackness made through hip hop are critical and contested—critical because they push back against the pervasive phenomenon of anti-Blackness and contested because questions of race, class, gender, and nationality continue to complicate self-making in the United States.

  In this forty-day devotional, Cuban American writer Kat Armas shows us that reading the Bible with fresh eyes allows us to experience God in new and liberating ways. 
   
   
   
  Many Christians today are seeking to disentangle biblical teaching from power structures that marginalize women and people of color. There's a hunger for a new kind of devotional that offers refreshing and relevant ways to connect with God and the Bible—ways that challenge readers to seek out a more liberated and embodied faith. 
   
   
   
  Drawing from personal narrative and Scripture, Armas highlights biblical passages that point toward decolonized themes centered on creation, wisdom, spirit, the body, and the feminine. Sacred Belonging helps us see how Scripture directs us to live a liberated faith, where we belong to God, the earth, and one another.

The instrumental "Wonderful Grace" by Divine Sounds, at the end of the message, gives the listener time to reflect on what has been said.
