Spiritual Ecology

What are the spiritual roots of our present ecological crisis?

While we are confronted by the tangible threats of global warming and species depletion, the loss of the sacred is as devastating to our soul and the soul of the world. And yet this inner tragedy is mostly hidden from our consciousness. But if we are to restore the balance in our world, we need to go beneath the surface to heal the split between spirit and matter and help to bring the sacred back into life.

“We serve life not because it is broken but because it is Holy” 
—Mother Teresa
