- Summary:
-
In this rich anthology, Andrew Harvey and Anne Baring explore many spiritual traditions throughout the world - including ancient Egypt, Sumeria, Greece, Judaism, Hinduism, Taoism, Sufism, Christianity, and Buddhism, and native religions - as they celebrate the goddess figures from Isis, Ishtar and Gaia to Kali, Kuan Yin, and the Virgin Mary. Hundreds of sayings, hymns, prayers, and poems from these traditions reveal the importance of renewing and integrating our relationship with the Divine Feminine and point the way to a new understanding of life, spirituality, and our relationship with this planet.
