Sacred land, sacred sex Book

Sacred Land, Sacred Sex is the only complete manual on deep experiential ecology, written by the movement's first woman advocate. Sacred Land provides a radical historical perspective on the philosophical & economic roots of Western civilization's divorce from nature. Through cross-cultural anthropological research, Sacred Land then discusses humanity's original roots in relationship to ecosystems & animals, & in nature as the source of our spiritual & aesthetic consciousness. Finally, Sacred Land serves as a vital resource for dozens of traditional rituals that can help us to break our alienation from nature, & from each other, in order to move toward committed, fulfilling relationships. Sacred Land also provides: * an appendix outlining ten "Skillful Strategies" for rediscovering our original humanity & effecting change at a local level * a list of organizational resources * detailed reference notes * a selected bibliography * an in-depth glossary * a thoroughly cross-referenced index.
