Fakirs of Bengal
Ever since Islam came to Bengal in the 13th century it participated, via a merging of Sufi inputs with vernacular strands of Vaisnavism (Vishnuism), tantrism and local folk cults, in a very rich blend of religious beliefs and practices in the lower strata of the society. The Fakir (Sufi ascetic), as a sub-section of the Bengali Bául with a more or less defined Muslim identity, are at present the largest group in Bengal perpetuating this form of 'Islamic syncretistic tradition'.
Lalan Shah or Lalan Fakir (?1774-?1890) is a product and proponent of purely Bengali syncretism. His writings and his teachings tell a story of merging Hinduism and Islam into a universalistic religion transcending the boundaries of any single religion.
The Hindu Baul and the Muslim Fakir share the same tenets of an mystic quest based on the intimate human-divine connection within every human being, cultivated through a philosophy and practices that emphasize the human body as locus and means for finding the essence of God. The path is taught in the traditional guru-disciple relationship where the guru is like the figure of the Sufi saint, in whom the divine is accomplished, merged with the human.

“What am I even doing here? Wasn’t I supposed to be famous and successful by now? Is this it? If this is it, I might as well start getting fat.”
Meet Kate. She’s a Skank.
She could be a successful writer, if she could just concentrate. Instead, her head is filled with recycling concerns, genius ways to ensnare Sexy Gary, and the persistent fear that her internal organs are against her.
Clementine Bogg-Hargroves reveals the witty, dark and often filthy thoughts of an ambitious twenty-something grappling with her uncertain future. How can someone so confident be so terrified?
Find out on 18, 20 and 21 July 2019, a debut solo show for Greater Manchester Fringe.

This is Wetton Hill and it looks so bleak and atmospheric with the sheep spaced out perfectly for perspective.
Wetton Hill is owned by the National trust and is comprised of two hills, this one being the highest at 371 metres above sea level but both commanding great view into the heart of the Manifold valley but also views of Chrome Hill and Parkhouse Hill. This area is wonderful walking countryside with lots of open access land to explore.
Simon Widdop, 29, a punk poet from Ossett, West Yorkshire, is working with comedy writer and performer Ben Moor on Stained, his debut spoken word show.
Stained will be performed at The King's Ams in Salford and The way Theatre and Studio in Atherton 15-20 July.

Grass in a small pool on the summit of Kevelin Moor in Allendale, Northumberland.
The scene looks calm, but it was anything but. The wind was so strong I had to lean on the tripod to keep it planted to the ground. A shutter speed of 6 secs helped to 'smooth' out the water - though keeping things sharp took a few goes!

Have you ever been in public and started your period? Or had a wax and been
in loads of pain trying to walk the next day? Or had someone speak over you
at work? Or been sexually assaulted? Yeah, us too. But why? Who decided
that the female body, and being a woman, is shameful? And why the have we let it be that way for so long? We need to normalise being a woman and what it means. We need to talk about the struggles women go through. We need to talk about womanhood and its effect on our lives and identity. We need to talk about it. So lets talk. Lady business is a show where we talk about very "private" things a public space. We are sick of being told what not to say so now we are saying it. We welcome you to be a part of the conversation.
True-life, devised, storytelling, theatre.

The Riot Act by Rob Johnston (Breathe Out Theatre), starring Christopher Ward and Jake Talbot, 20 July 2019 at Manchester Central Library.

Heart arrhythmia, also known as irregular heartbeat or cardiac dysrhythmia, is a group of conditions where the heartbeat is irregular, too slow, or too fast.
The heart rate that is too fast – above 100 beats per minute in adults – is called tachycardia, and a heart rate that is too slow – below 60 beats per minute – is called bradycardia
