Muddy Mysticism (eBook, ePUB)

the Sacred Tethers of Body, Earth and Everyday

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Muddy Mysticism is a spiritual memoir, a lyrical articulation of an emergent feminist mysticism and a heartfelt response to the lack of mystical literature by women who have chosen a life of family, love, work and the world. Like many women she found the faith of her childhood no longer fitted... yet still there is a longing for the sacred. Through poetry, reflection and experience she moves into the possibility of direct experience with the divine...beyond a belief system. Exploring the possibility of daily life in the modern world not as something to be transcended or escaped...but as a mystical path in its own right.

Muddy Mysticism offers consolation to those who feel the truth and bewilderment that the late German Jesuit priest, Karl Rahner, touched upon when he said that the only way a person would survive with an intact faith in this century is by being a mystic.

Natalie Bryant-Rizzieri is an award-winning poet. This is her first non-fiction title.
