Descriere magazin:
A compelling exploration of the lost yet crucial role of ritual in our increasingly secular lives. Today, in the West, we hold neither adequate rites of passage for our youth, nor initiations for our growing number of elders. We have neither healing rituals for the loss of an unborn child, nor ways to mark the severing of a twenty-year relationship. This can leave us feeling alienated and bereft. Re-enchanting the Forest is written for that part in us that yearns for living ritual, that seeks to bring an embodied sense of solace and belonging back into our modern lives. Drawing on his own experience, and on the ritual cultures of the indigenous world, William Ayot demonstrates the value and power of ritual to revive and \'re-wire\' our sometimes confused and disconnected spirits. With a foreword by Mark Rylance.Praise for Re-enchanting the ForestIn today\'s Western world, we are richer than we have ever been. The array of technologies, foodstuffs and consumer goods available to most of us would have rendered our ancestors speechless. We are told almost daily how lucky we are. So what is this huge hole at the centre of our culture? What is this grief that lurks beneath the surface?

Paul Kingsnorth, activist and author of The Wake and Real EnglandBy introducing people to the ways of ritual, William Ayot helps people towards a wiser, richer, more connected life. Sobonfu Som , initiated teacher, activist and author of The Spirit of IntimacyThis is the most compelling book I know on the vital but lost role of ritual in our lives. Neither an academic treatise nor a theological tract, Re-enchanting the Forest is about life as it is and might be lived in a secular world, a book that honoured my mind but reached directly into my heart and soul. I cannot recommend it highly enough, with only one caveat: reading it might change your life as it changed mine. Parker J. Palmer, author of A Hidden Wholeness and Healing the Heart of DemocracyIn this remarkable book, William Ayot reclaims the beauty of practical ritual to enhance our lives, to he
