O knihe

We are becoming increasingly aware that an ecological crisis threatens Earth and all life on Earth. Policies and programs are being developed to reverse this trend but, without a basic reconstruction of human attitudes to Earth, our best technological efforts will fail.

We have been trained to look upon Earth as open for unlimited exploration and exploitation so that humanity can secure vital resources for our existence. But it is now clear that Earth is not an object to be devoured by us. It is a living system that we must respect and listen to as our Teacher. We must learn to approach Earth as Sacred, as did our distant ancestors for countless generations. To foster this change, humans need to re-value their own spiritual nature and to understand that we can choose life as a journey to be made in response to the Presence of the Sacred in everything.

Each person can enter upon a "Sacred Journey" as the core reality of their life. This book explores our spiritual nature to understand the central characteristics of the journey and how it is integrated with the daily round of personal and social existence. To help illuminate our path, the experience of other people, past and present, is discussed. The central purpose of the book is to encourage a way of living that brings together the 'outside' and the 'inside' of life as a creative, responsible and joyful endeavour.
