  Celestial Ghosts - Dark Matter's...

  Dark matter is one of the most elusive and mysterious components of the universe. It is invisible, yet its existence is inferred from the gravitational effects it has on visible matter, such as stars and galaxies. Despite being a significant part of the cosmos, dark matter has yet to be directly detected, which makes it an intriguing subject for astrophysicists. It is believed to make up about 27% of the universe's total mass and energy, far outpacing the visible matter that forms stars, planets, and galaxies. 
  The name “dark matter” was coined to reflect the fact that it does not emit, absorb, or reflect any form of electromagnetic radiation, making it invisible to current instruments. This absence of interaction with light or other electromagnetic forces is why it cannot be seen directly. However, dark matter’s presence is undeniable when looking at the way galaxies move. Without dark matter, galaxies would not have the gravitational pull necessary to prevent their stars from flying apart as they spin. This leads scientists to believe that dark matter provides the gravitational glue that holds galaxies, and indeed the entire universe, together. 
  One of the key pieces of evidence for dark matter comes from the study of galaxy clusters. When observing these massive cosmic structures, scientists noticed that the visible matter within them didn’t account for the full gravitational force required to keep the clusters intact. This discrepancy suggested the presence of an unseen substance, later named dark matter, that was exerting additional gravitational pull. Another significant clue comes from the phenomenon of gravitational lensing, where light from distant objects bends around large masses. Dark matter’s influence on this bending further supports the idea that it is present in quantities far larger than what we can observe.

  Reimagining The Divine - A...

  The globalised belief in one ‘God’ has become a problem. The prayer ‘Our Father in heaven’ presents an image that embodies the values of uniformity, exclusivity, patriarchy, authoritarianism and the absence of a sacred presence in nature. 
    
  Here on earth, the climate and biodiversity emergencies foreshadow an apocalyptic future for humans and all life forms. To confront and resolve these emergencies, we need to apply values contrary to the ‘Father God’ image. The important values today include: diversity, inclusivity, gender justice, democracy and a recognition of the sacredness of nature. 
    
  Can we find new spiritual images and narratives that embody these values? This book suggests we can. 
    
  Reimagining the Divine is a call for diversity in belief. No religion has a monopoly of truth. Everyone’s experience and perspective has merit. 
    
  The Spirituality of Experience is a form of mysticism that incorporates these new values. Practiced historically by Celtic monks, it focuses on one’s personal experience of the sacred, and not on beliefs or a creed. 
  If your vision for the future is 
  ·     The return of humans to harmony with the rest of nature 
  ·     The building of a world community that is tolerant and inclusive 
  ·     Finding a way of living on this planet that corrects the human causes of climate change and biodiversity loss 
  then this book may help you, and all of us, get there.
