Midwest Book Review, December 2009
It is hard to find the right metaphor to describe this book, for it is so full of metaphors, but here is my best shot: I felt like a hummingbird in an endless meadow of flowers. I was nourished, yet did not want to depart with anything unsampled. If there is a 21st century guide to the mystical journey, this is it.
- T.L. Brink, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Crafton Hills College, author of Ways to the Center: an introduction to world religions and Dream Encyc,
“Folding in Celtic crosses, indigenous spirituality, Buddhism, Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Transcendentalists, and St. John the Divine cathedral in Manhattan, Yastion argues convincingly that there is some consensus across cultures and traditions on what constitutes sacred space. Could there be a universal truth about such places—and if so, what is it?”
