The Merlionsman Konggontra Roda Mundansa or Roda Mundansa Bibliography collects and synthesises information related to the Roda Mundansa, the Kristang cosmological Wheel of World Movement.

Last updated 17 July 2024

The Bibliography is an ongoing effort and will be updated periodically. Please let me know via the Get in Touch form or via merlionsman [at] gmail [dot] com if there are films, games, articles, books or other reference material that I should include, or if there are any errors below. I am also happy to include information that has not yet been documented in Western academia or research.
