Product Description
Review
"Here is an abundantly wise and carefully crafted survival guide for the wild soul currently dozing (or dying) at the heart of your civilized life. Plotkin has wandered again and again into the nourishing darkness, and has returned with this earthly bundle of insights and images -- talismanic tools for awakening to the outrageous depths both within us and all around us. He has bound them into a book that is immensely practical, alive with ritual intelligence, thick with useful tools from a host of courageous comrades."
-- David Abram, author of "The Spell of the Sensuous"
"As we enter a future where humans and the natural world are more intimate with each other, we will surely be powerfully influenced by this new guide into the mysteries of nature and psyche. In "Soulcraft," Bill Plotkin gives us an authentic masterwork. In the substance of what he has written, in the clarity of his presentation, and in the historical urgency of the subject, he has guided us far into the new world that is opening up before us. We will not soon again receive a work of this significance."
-- from the foreword by Thomas Berry, author of "The Dream of the Earth" and "The Great Work"
"The fundamental worldview of industrial society is that Earth is like a gravel pit or a lumberyard -- just a resource for human use. We live disconnected from the evolving earth community, but our deepest allurement is a rich, intimate participation in nature and the ongoing adventure of the Universe. In this stunningly original and inspiring guide book, Bill Plotkin shows us how to reconnect with the sacred powers of life, of nature, of soul, and the ways that each one of us can reinvent ourselves and discoverour unique way to flower forth."
-- Brian Swimme, cosmologist and author of "The Hidden Heart of the Cosmos," "The Universe is a Green Dragon," and coauthor with Thomas Berry of "The Universe Story"
Product Description
This book offers a personal quest. It can empower readers to put their lives onto a path of both personal fulfilment and genuine service to others. This quest can also facilitate transition through a major crossroads of life. These crossroads, such as leaving home, mid-life crisis, career change, loss of a loved one, divorce, a healing crisis, spiritual crisis, retirement, can be quite disorienting and emotionally traumatic. But these times often provide the necessary doorway to future growth and self-empowerment.
