Beschreibung

Forest Spirits explores the pervasive belief in enchanted forests and nature deities across cultures, revealing their profound impact on human interaction with the environment. The book argues that these beliefs are not relics of the past but continuously evolving phenomena shaping our understanding of nature. For example, many ancient cultures saw forests as sacred spaces inhabited by powerful spirits, influencing sustainable practices and resource management.

 
The book begins by examining animism and the origins of forest spirits across various traditions, from European folklore to Indigenous American beliefs. It progresses to analyze the ecological wisdom embedded in these systems, highlighting sustainable practices, and concludes by exploring the representation of these spirits in art and literature. 

 
By integrating perspectives from environmental studies, religious studies, and art history, Forest Spirits offers a holistic view of the human-nature relationship.

    Regular family devotions are important. Unfortunately, they're often . . . boring.

    These hands-on, kinda dangerous, totally unforgettable object lessons (along with nearly fifty others) are not only more fun than other family devotions--they actually deliver the spiritual impact you desire for your kids. So get out the safety goggles and start bringing the truths of Scripture to vivid life in your household. Just remember to change out of your Sunday clothes first.

    An Omega Institute Cofounder Explores the Spiritual Landscape of AmericaA Sounds True Classic“America has given birth to a wisdom tradition entirely its own,” says author Elizabeth Lesser, “a spirituality that is as diverse as its people, and that respects the freedom and uniqueness of each individual.” Judeo-Christian traditions and the meditation practices of Asia and India…modern science and Native American teachings…Sufism and transpersonal psychology—The Seeker's Guide explores what happens when these and other traditions cohabitate our unique cultural landscape. With the gifts of such diversity, says Lesser, come important questions. Is it wise to combine different schools of thought, practices, and therapies? How do we assess the authenticity of a teacher or therapist? Is our spiritual practice really working? How can we tell? On The Seeker's Guide, Elizabeth Lesser speaks to these questions with clarity and passion, weaving stories of her own trials and errors, with detailed guidelines to help us find a path of our own. Includes a 60-minute mindfulness and heartfulness meditation. Topics: the union of psychology and mysticism, the return of the body in spiritual life, universal skills for inner exploration, modern America and the landscape of soul, and much more. Note: Previously published as The New American Spirituality.

    "If anyone on the verge of action should judge himself according to the outcome, he would never begin."
    
    In Fear and Trembling, Søren Kierkegaard offers a profound exploration of faith that has shaped modern Protestant theology and inspired existentialist thinkers such as Jean-Paul Sartre and Albert Camus. Centring on the biblical story of Abraham and Isaac, Kierkegaard examines the anxiety, paradox, and passion that define true religious belief, arguing that that faith is not a matter of easy comfort but of "fear and trembling"—a leap into the absurd where the individual stands alone before God.
    
    Often called the "father of existentialism", Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855) was a Danish philosopher and theologian whose works blur the line between philosophy, theology, and literature. His exploration of themes of faith, despair, freedom, and the absurd, laid the groundwork for later existentialist thinkers, and his insistence on the individual's responsibility to live authentically before God continues to challenge and inspire those wrestling with questions of belief, meaning and how to live an authentic life.
