false 715760 2 In this book, MacEowen, a teacher of the spiritual traditions of Scotland and Ireland, issues a call to readers longing to live a more authentic life to wake up from "the land of sleepwalkers." "Too many of us squander our lives," he writes, "filling our minds with a crazed habitual raciness that is hard to throw off." MacEowen's purpose is to show us how to break free of our unconscious habits to place our awareness where it matters, living from the perspective of our inner senses and informed by our souls. The "Mist" he speaks of is a metaphor for spirituality used by Celtic peoples. Drawing on his own personal experiences and myths and poems of the Celts and Druids, MacEowen introduces readers conditioned by modern Western society to a world of mystery and meaning that is ours to enter into at any time, were we only to become more aware of it. <p> Throughout the book, he also shares various exercises to help us further that awareness, and in the process he makes a compelling argument that the "good life" that all of us yearn for can only be found when we live each day with a sense of "wonderment and wakeful purpose" that is in tune with our divine birthright. With <i>The Mist-Filled Path</i>, MacEowen joins writers such as John O'Donahue (<i>Anam Cara</i>) and Caitlin Mathews (<i>The Encyclopedia of Celtic Wisdom</i>) in introducing readers to the ancient spiritual traditions of "the misty green isles" of Ireland and Scotland that gave meaning to their inhabitants for many centuries, and which still hold value for us here in the 21st century. 702012 9 4 2002 The Mist-Filled Path: Celtic Wisdom for Exiles, Wanderers, and Seekers total:44|5:17|4:15|3:10|2:1|1:1| 44 178 78 7 5 0 false false Mon Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Sun Apr 19 00:26:07 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 27 09:18:31 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Jun 06 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 05 14:17:13 -0700 2009 Sun Aug 23 14:36:44 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sat Aug 29 15:45:52 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 29 03:55:53 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 29 15:45:52 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Wed Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Nov 14 07:57:57 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 14 07:59:28 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sat Nov 07 13:48:43 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 14 14:16:44 -0800 2009 Sat Feb 14 14:16:57 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Wed Oct 28 21:48:49 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 28 21:51:40 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Jul 16 04:08:12 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 04 04:03:30 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Nov 04 17:25:33 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 17:25:33 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Thu Oct 22 08:30:43 -0700 2009 Thu Oct 22 08:30:43 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Sep 23 18:46:07 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 23 18:46:07 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Sep 20 08:40:08 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 08:40:08 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Tue Sep 15 16:24:23 -0700 2009 Tue Sep 15 16:24:23 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Oct 19 14:26:37 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 12:24:56 -0700 2009 Sat Sep 05 12:24:56 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon Aug 24 12:53:11 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 24 12:53:11 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Aug 10 10:18:48 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 10 10:18:48 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Tue Aug 04 19:54:26 -0700 2009 Tue Aug 04 19:54:26 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Jun 14 14:07:08 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 14 14:07:08 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jun 12 11:06:44 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 12 11:06:44 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jun 08 21:23:18 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 08 21:23:18 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2003 Thu Jun 04 09:42:38 -0700 2009 Thu Jun 04 09:42:59 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=715760
