Product Review
A treasure! Belongs on the bookshelf of everyone who loves our precious Planet Earth. -- Hazel Henderson, author of The Politics of the Solar Age

Through this extraordinary collection of prayers from all the world and from all historical periods we finally awaken to the presence of the divine that comes to us through the Earth and the entire natural world. -- Thomas Berry, author of The Dream of the Earth --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description
In forest clearings, beneath star-filled skies, in cathedrals, and before the hearthwomen and men have always given voice to the impulse to celebrate the world that surrounds and sustains them. Now, as we face a diminished present and an uncertain future, the need to honor the interconnection between people and the planet is heightened.

From Walt Whitman, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Black Elk, to Margaret Atwood, the Rig Veda, and the chant of a Samar fisherman, the varied voices linked here offer songs and prayers for land, sea, and air; graces for food; and invocations, poems, and passages that reveal in the common spiritual heritage of all who cherish creation. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
