Leave the beholdyng of a wrech that it was schewde to, and myghtely, wysely and mekely behold god… he shall … make you to take it more ghostely and more sweetly then I can or may tell it. Fourteenth-century mystic Julian of Norwich has become a source of inspiration for seekers of intelligent, grounded, actively loving spirituality. In her writing she steadfastly avoids taking on the mantle either of a teacher with objective knowledge to impart, or of a mystic whose experience is beyond the rest of us. She simply invites her readers to participate directly in a transformative encounter with her revelations. This talk will propose that the transformation she invites us to share is precisely that which is needed if we are to address our contemporary ecological crisis.
