Cathedrals of the Spirit: The Message of Sacred Places

McLUHAN, T.C.

HARPER/COLLINS

In Cathedrals of the Spirit, T. C. McLuhan takes us on a pilgrimage to the spiritual centers of the earth - sacred sites both natural and man-made that hold deep mystical histories and can serve as focusing points in the quest for self-knowledge. Interspersing her own observations with the voices of philosophers, poets, writers, saints, and sinners from Buddha to Thoreau, McLuhan enters into both the geographical and metaphysical terrain of such sanctified places as the grand temples of the Yunkang caves in northern China, the ancient rock formations of the American Southwest, and the mysterious density of the tropical rain forests. Illustrated with sixty remarkable black-and-white photographs by Eliot Bowen, Cathedrals of the Spirit reveals the sacred landscapes that rest within both Nature and the human spirit.

McLuhan, an author and filmmaker, draws on ancient and contemporary sources to examine the significance of the Earth from the perspective of six diverse cultures from Aboriginal Australia, Japan, ancient Greece, Africa, South America, and Native North America. She demonstrates that there are more similarities than differences in how people of different cultures celebrate the sacred nature of the Earth in literature, mythology, religion, and art. Includes hundreds of traditional and modern examples of literature and art, illustrated with b&amp;w and color photos. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
