Earth Prayers: From around the Word, 365 Prayers, Poems, and Invocations for Honoring the Earth - Elizabeth Roberts

In forest clearings, beneath star-filled skies, in cathedrals, and before the hearth... women 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.Roberts, Elizabeth is the author of 'Earth Prayers: From around the Word, 365 Prayers, Poems, and Invocations for Honoring the Earth - Elizabeth Roberts' with ISBN 9780062508881 and ISBN 0062508881.
