“Sacred Time” explores the profound connection between timekeeping and spirituality across diverse cultures. It argues that calendars are not merely practical tools but culturally constructed frameworks imbued with religious meaning. The book highlights how religious beliefs have shaped our perception and organization of time, demonstrating the cultural impact of religion on daily life.

One intriguing insight is how prayer cycles, such as daily monastic routines, structure believers' lives, connecting them to a divine order. Another is the role of sacred festivals like Easter or Diwali in reinforcing communal identity and spiritual renewal.

The book examines the evolution of calendar systems, from ancient lunar calendars to complex Mayan systems, providing historical context for understanding how early civilizations integrated astronomy with religious narratives. It progresses by introducing fundamental concepts of sacred time, then explores prayer cycles and sacred festivals in different traditions.

By drawing from archaeological records, ancient texts, and ethnographic studies, “Sacred Time” offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between time, religion, and culture, making it valuable for anyone interested in history, religion, and cultural diversity.
