Description

Supporting Lovelock's thesis that the Earth is a living being James Swan suggests natural sites such as Serpent Mound Machu Pichu and Delphi have the power to move us in ways modern science cannot explain. SACRED PLACES explores the age-old relationship between human beings and the living ecology. Drawing upon years of research in psychology anthropology biology and electromagnetism as well as field work with various native cultures the author demonstrates that sacred places in nature have a value that transcends time and culture and therefore that they must be preserved for generations to come Jim Swan's work gives us a fascinating bridge between science and the sacred mystery of the land. His writing is eloquent and promotes the healing of mind and heart.
