Product Description

23 Reflections and 26 Pieces of Verse, etc. (COVER REMARKS) by Thomas Berry, to whom book is dedicated, author of THE DREAM OF THE EARTH, cultural historian and geologian: "As we awaken, in this new millennium, to a dynamic, hitherto scarcely dreamed of future in every phase of life, John Cock's latest book sounds a clarion call for our participation in the great enterprise of enhancing communion between the human and the other-than-human components of the sacred earth community." (MASTER IMAGE) A book about the spirit journey of communion with the power at the heart of creation that motivates us humans to be agents of intercommunion. (From the INTRODUCTION) Section one is about linking our understanding of creation and its interior power to our current human condition: the people of this planet are dispirited. Yet, we are on a spirit journey which is not about "me as a person" but is about "me in relation with all others," human and non-human. The truth we are missing is that spirit happens in the relation between the other and me, or spirit happens in the relations of creation. In this section we explore spirit's presence in everyday life and the dynamics of the spirit journey. In section two, . . . How do we begin to deal with the contradiction of our time, which is spirit disrelation? Answer: we become more aware of our experiences of communion with spirit. In section three . . . the focus is the mission of creation as mutual care or intercommunion . . . a way to talk about our resolve and action to comprehensively interrelate with and care for creation as it cares for us. . . . The change we envision will not come from the ought of sustainability, will not come from more democratic governments, more economic prosperity, or a better educated populace. It will come from a more conscious spirit journey of communion and intercommunion of a growing movement of people around the planet.
