Description

This spiritual guidebook follows in the footsteps of Dante on his journey through the Divine Comedy. A fresh, modern take on this path, the book invites us to explore these questions: what is my hell and how do I move through it? What is my purgatory and what lesson do I need to take away? What is my paradise; how do I get there and how do I stay there? With wisdom distilled from the great myths, scriptures, and the world's mystics, this book is an invitation to ever-greater awakening and wholeness. REVIEWS We're lost. We're trying to get home. With those words, Marc Thomas Shaw aptly summarizes the human predicament and then gathers a host of wise counselors-from mythology, pop culture, spiritual masters, and his own lived experiences-to accompany the reader on an inner journey toward the soul's true home. -Kenneth McIntosh, author of Water from an Ancient Well: Celtic Spirituality for Modern Life Vulnerable, lonely, and dark-these words describe all of us at times. It's the human condition. I think Marc is right: we're lost, and we have to go through some uncomfortable heat to find our way home. I loved this book. -Jon M. Sweeney, author of Inventing Hell; coauthor of Meister Eckhart's Book of the Heart Marc Shaw invites us on a heroic adventure. In reading this text, I experienced new insights into how I too might embrace the shadows of my personal woundedness as open doors to becoming more fully alive. -Bruce Epperly, author of more than thirty books on spirituality, including Become Fire! Guideposts for Interspiritual Pilgrims Marc Shaw's book invites you onto a rich journey of descent with wise guides and practices to help support the path. He offers lots of practical ways to explore the themes. It is a book to be worked through slowly, with lots of possibility for transformation and discovery. -Christine Valters Paintner, PhD, author of twelve books on spirituality, including The Soul's Slow Ripening: 12 Celtic Practices for Seeking the Sacred With clear-eyed wisdom and an engaging style, Marc Thomas Shaw is our Beatrice, guiding the pilgrim through the often painful, mysterious, and beautiful journey of the soul, ever reminding us that we are all just "trying to get home." -Christiana Peterson, author of Mystics and Misfits: Meeting God Through St. Francis and Other Unlikely Saints
