Going Forth

From: Coming Back to Life

$2.70

The culmination of the workshop serves as a bridge between the experiences of our work together (described in the last four chapters) and the daily lives we are about to resume. We have come to see with new eyes our ineluctable place in the web of life, our connections with all beings through space and time and the kind of power that is ours for creating a life-sustaining culture. Now we use this new vision to discern more clearly the distinctive role we each can play in the Great Turning. This chapter offers practices for doing this.
