Tonight’s class will feature the beginning of our discussion on John Philip Newell.
Sacred Relationship with a Beloved Community Larger than Our Species Sacred relationship with the land, waters and all creatures is a worldview and a practice deeply rooted in the Celtic tradition. And one that is desperately needed at this time of ecological and cultural unraveling. This session offers grounding to help remember and integrate the mystical, earth-honoring spiritual practices of our ancestors. These re-enchanting practices are needed to restore our culture's severed relationship with the rest of the alive and holy world. Restoring intimate relationship with the whole holy earth also acts as a portal into a spiritual depth, a way of opening our eyes to see and hearts to sense the sacred flowing through and between all beings. Connect with a love that literally holds the world together—a love that calls us into communion with all creatures.

 

 John Philip Newell (born 1953) is a Celtic teacher and author of spirituality who calls the modern world to reawaken to the sacredness of Earth and every human being. Canadian by birth, and a citizen of Scotland, he resides with his family in Edinburgh and works on both sides of the Atlantic. In 2016 he began the School of Earth and Soul (originally called the School of Celtic Consciousness) and teaches regularly in the United States and Canada as well as leading international pilgrimage weeks on Iona in the Western Isles of Scotland.
