Jeremy Berg has the gifts of a natural storyteller, an artist''s eye and an exquisite sensitivity to the spiritual worlds and the magical realm of Faerie. All these talents come together to create this beautiful, color illustrated gem of a short story. It will not fail to inspire and delight. Appropriate for young teens and above.

This textbook is an edited transcript of a live online class presented by the Lorian Association. The objective of this book is that at the end, you will have an expanded and empowered view of yourself, of who you are as an incarnate person. To do this, this textbook examines both a set of ideas on the processes of incarnation and the application of those ideas into everyday life. This book further elucidates David Spangler''s Incarnational Spirituality and has philosophical and cosmological components, but its ultimate intent is a practical one. The benefits will come from applying this wealth of information into your everyday life.

This full color book leads the reader on a meditative journey chronicling the soul''s response to the Call of the World into incarnation. Steps along this epic journey are highlighted through beautiful and evocative illustrations by Deva Berg. This book offers several contemplative exercises designed to help the reader attune to their own spiritual call. It is a great way to begin exploring Incarnational Spirituality, David Spangler''s term for the body of work he has been developing with inner colleagues for over 40 years.

In this classic book Dorothy Maclean tells her story of how she came to be one of the three founders of the Findhorn Community in Scotland. Following her inner contact with the Divine she came to communicate with the devic or angelic realms that over-light all aspects of existence. The success and subsequent fame of the Findhorn gardens arose in part from Dorothy''s telepathic contact with these kingdoms. She now travels the world giving workshops and talks about her own inner practices and attunement to the Beloved. Many of the messages she received are included in this book. Their simple wisdom cannot fail to quicken an awareness of our birthright as conscious partners with all the evolutionary streams of life.

This classic book, first published in 1978, shows some of the beginnings of the spiritual work of David Spangler while co-director of the Findhorn Community and shortly thereafter. It contains a new preface and one new chapter written in 2012. May it be a blessing to you.

"These lovely and enlivening meditations awaken us to the resonance of our ordinary humanity.

Joanna Macy, author, World As Lover, World As SelfAuthor Katherine Murray is a spiritual director, writer, mom, and nana who loves the earth and all beings living here. The author of many nonfiction books Katherine mixes pastoral care with contemplative writing and feels that healing our relationship with the earth is integral to personal and societal healing.

This is David Spangler''s newest introduction to Incarnational Spirituality a term he uses to describe his approach to spirituality.Since 1965, David Spangler has worked clairvoyantly and intuitively with a group of non-physical beings from the inner worlds of spirit. They identified themselves as being part of an inner school whose purpose was to explore and develop a spiritual teaching around the process of incarnation. This teaching is intended to empower incarnate persons living in the physical world-individuals such as you and me-to lead lives of greater blessing and capacity and to be sources of blessing and service for the world as a whole. From 1970-1973, David was a co-director of the Findhorn Foundation Community in Northern Scotland. In 1974 he co-founded the Lorian Association, a non-profit spiritual educational organization, and continues to work with it today. David is also a Fellow of the Lindisfarne Association, a gathering of scientists, mathematicians, artists, spiritual and religious teachers, ecologists, and political scientists, all interested in promoting a new culture based on holistic and Gaian values.

In 1954, after earlier having the wonderful experience of knowing that God was within, Dorothy Maclean was asked from within to "Stop, listen and write."  When she eventually did this, she received inspiring experiences which she put into words and wrote down.  These became the pole star of her life, and gave her the help, training, joy and love which she needed for any situation.  Basically she was asked to be more loving in her life.  She followed this advice as much as I could for the ten years before coming to Findhorn.  There she was also told she had a job to communicate with Nature and when she did, they received help from Nature beings, the angels or devas, in their attempts to grow vegetables in sand.  eir cooperation with Nature in the Findhorn Garden grew from following their suggestions. The contents of this book, one hundred messages chosen from June 1970 to December 1971, have been slightly edited for republication. May you be inspired, as others have been, by these messages and from your own still small voice within.This book also includes reproductions of some of Dorothy Maclean''s watercolor paintings reproduced in black and white.
