Summary
Details

"Ian Prattis' new publication, Sacred Ceremony and Desert Legacy is another riveting medley of poetry and prose, autobiographical essays and a memoir of his mystical journey as a shaman and a Zen teacher. His gentle but powerful activism to save the Earth is the sacred glue fusing together all of the genres featured in this book.

Prattis uses the power of the word to remind us to open our hearts and our senses to the natural world, to hear the symphony in the whale song, and marvel at the flight of geese, or to ""see spring blossoms cast a rainbow in summer rain.""

Prattis' reflections on impermanence remind us that ""our only possessions are the consequences of our actions"", and that we should awaken from our apathy and slumber and show a renewed reverence toward nature becoming both leaders and followers of radical change.

His social commentary on wars and the destruction of our home Earth is couched in stirringly beautiful poetic language, which acts as a guiding light to beckon us toward a shift of consciousness.
