Abstract

V originále

This paper analyzes and presents continuities and discontinuities in the development of acculturation of Hindu-inspired religiosity in Czechoslovakia during the second part of the 20th century, and shows certain specifics of this development in periods of totality and the transition to democracy. It maps shifting boundaries within the occult milieu and Yoga movement (which arose from it), concerns with the role of Communist censorship practices in this process, analyzes the border reshaping after fall of Communism and points out the relevance of national borders in development of movements within un-churched religiosity in the Eastern and Central Europe.
