Spiritual Paths to an Ethical and Ecological Global Civilzation

In this visionary book, John Raymaker, and Gerald Grudzen with Joe Holland -- pioneering scholars of religion, philosophy and culture -- first try to read the contemporary signs of the times which indicate that late moderncivilization and our planet earth are in a crisis and need renewal and reform. For this purpose they drawupon a "e;New Cosmology"e; which views evolution as a co-creative and artistic/mystical process in which everyone can participate. The authors draw upon the "e;wisdom of the ages"e; to develop an inclusive,global spirituality which resonates with the ecological-mystical cosmology presently arising on the frontiers of philosophy and science. This book also links global spirituality with global ethics in the search for a regenerative global civilization. A true global ethics must be rooted in a new economic and social model which supports human beings and the natural world and protects workers, families and the bioregions of the world on which all humanity depends
