The Once & Future Goddess

The Once & Future Goddess, by Elinor W. Gadon http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif

I just started reading this book and have already found a number of things to inspire me:
-Their followers (Hinduism & Buddhism) consider these paths as ways of life, embracing the whole, not a dimension of experience separate and apart from the ordinary. -speaking on the word religion
-All were responsible to each other and responsible for the ongoing rhythms of life, death, and rebirth-humankind, women equally with men, animal and plants, rocks and rivers, the planet earth and it's atmosphere. -in regards to religion prior to Western domination
-Our challenge as women and men in the late twentieth century is to open ourselves to other realities, to find other lenses through which to view human life, our relation to each other, and to the world around us.

These are things that have drawn me to study the pagan way of life.
