Congratulations to Professor Roland Faber on his newest book, <\/span>The Cosmic Spirit: Awakenings at the Heart of All Religions, the Earth, and the Multiverse<\/span><\/i>! He begins the text with the big questions:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAre we more than stardust?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIs the appearance of the fragile Earth in the vast universe more than an accident?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIs there a cosmic Spirit that wants us to awaken to a consciousness of universal meaning, sacred purpose, and mutual friendship with all beings?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

This book aims to \u201canswer these questions with a spirituality of the numinous in our relation to the elements of the Earth in the matrix of the multiverse by taking you on a journey not bound by any religion, but in deep appreciation of the religious and spiritual heritage of human encounters with the divine depth of existence in our selves and in nature, they invite you to become sojourners by engaging the most profound embodiments of the intangible Spirit by which it facilitates its own materialization in the cosmos and our spiritualization of the cosmos. Use\u2014says this Spirit\u2014the stardust that you are to become a spirit-faring species in an eternal journey of the cosmos to realize its ultimate motive of existence\u2014the attraction of love!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr. Faber shared:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOf all my books, <\/span>The Cosmic Spirit <\/span><\/i>has had the longest birth process. It is the outcome of my intellectual and spiritual journey that began when I was in my teens and discovered the world of mind and spirit. Its content is the result of many intellectual, spiritual, and personal encounters, over decades, and of studying, teaching, and writing in the areas of philosophy and religion\u2026Yet it is also an intimate book. Its discourses are initiated by memories of like-minded sojourners and foreign patterns of thought and living, alike, challenging and widening thought and life to ever-new horizons.<\/span><\/p>\n

The spiritual symbolisms of this book, energized by intuitions and lived experiences, arise from the inevitability and joy of magnificent appearances of nature, deeply resonating with deep-seated images, always tending the world we live in, that wander through philosophical and religious articulations. These natural forms in, from, and by which we live are passages across my own discoveries of deeper spiritual offerings of the Mystery, which is always beyond words and worlds. They are sites of elemental and sublime encounters and meditations on the recognition that the only way to understand what their spiritual depths tell us is to walk, swim, climb, fall, gaze, struggle, exhaust ourselves through them.<\/span><\/p>\n

By these encounters, the forms these elements take\u2014the seas, the rivers, the deserts, the mountains, the trees, the stars\u2014meet us as teachers of meaning, of the embodied world, and its ailments\u2026And they dwarf our little worlds when we find ourselves released from such cages and step into an adventure, perilous and intense, as it is, unsealing us to the undefinable, strange, inaccessible otherness, but always admitting and advising vastness, that persists even in the derogation of the Earth that has, surprising as it is, brought us forth.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
