Mary Meehan returns to the land of her birth to give us an extraordinary view
of the faith, myths, and celebrations of Ireland that are part of its spiritual
heritage and explores the lives of women who were mystics, activists and leaders
in the early Celtic church.
The
unhurried paddling of swans on the River Erkina (front cover) portray the
Celtic soul journey-to-wholeness in communication with creation. People of
every tradition will be inspired by the exquisite unfolding of an ancient
spiritual legacy.
As
you journey In Quest of the Celtic Soul, discover the wisdom of this mystical
tradition by:
-encountering
the tranquility of the "thin places" - places of pilgrimage sacred
to the Irish- where the veil between past, present and future is nearly transparent.
-contemplating
the lives of Ita of Killedy, Cannera of Bantry Bay, Gobnait of Ballyvourney
and Brigit of Kildare - amazing women who lived their vision - and whose lives
continue to inspire through the ages and in every generation.
-discovering
the spirit of the land and the warmth of its people.
-opening
yourself to the Celtic passion for life and discovery of God's presence in
all places and at all times.
-enjoying
the music, song, and dance of Bru Boru from Cashel, County Tipperary and scenes
of Siamsa Tire's theatrical production of "The Children of Lir"
from Tralee, County Kerry.
