An Invitation To Celtic Wisdom Av Carl (Carl Mccolman) Mccolman

Drawing on myth, folklore, poetry and the tales of Celtic gods and heroes,this little book is an invitation to readers to explore the spiritual tradition of the Celtic peoples - a tradition rooted in hospitality and one that is of growing importance in these increasingly fractured and troubled times.

Also included are profiles of Patrick, Brendan and Bridget.3.How to Walk the Celtic Path: In this section the author explores hospitality, spiritual direction story-telling, spiritual power and the Grail.McColman has written a splendid introduction to a spiritual path that will appeal to both believers and seekers who are interested in all things Celtic.
