An Tairseach Organic Farm & Ecology Centre presents Celtic Spirituality with Dolores Whelan (4 days)

WHEN:    Monday 21st to Thursday 24th October 2024

A central (core) belief within all aspects of the Celtic and pre-Celtic spiritual tradition’ is that there are many different dimensions within the world/universe. In this tradition the universe is understood as a connected whole, where the spiritual mythical and physical dimensions flow into each other. In this world view there is no real separation between the physical and spiritual worlds.

The Divine is perceived as being present within every atom in the created world. This presence can be experienced by anyone who looks into the world with the eyes of the heart and awakens that person to the immanence of the Divine within the natural world. This new awareness can radically change how a person engages with the living earth. As each of us awakens to this reality, we realize that the Divine presence imbues all life and so our whole attitude to life changes.

This course will introduce participants to the central beliefs within the cosmology from which the Celtic Spiritual tradition flows.

This course will focus on the immanence of God that is the presence of the Divine within the natural world. And will explore how opening up to this awareness actually allows us to experience the Divine presence. As we awaken to this reality and realize that the Divine presence imbues all life our whole attitude to life changes.
