Creation's Wisdom

The Five Wisdom teaching sees the five elements space, water, earth, fire, and air not just as physical elements but as holistic expressions of psychological and spiritual realities, what Christians understand as the attributes of God . . . . This wisdom, or spiritual energy, is available to everyone and unites everyone as it flows, much like the divine breath, through time and space. "Creations Wisdom draws on Hebrew Scriptures, the gospel of Jesus, and Tibetan teachings to navigate our strange new world with a spirituality that is embodied, communal, and elemental. When infrastructures are eroding, best get a guide that will prepare you for anything.” -Rev. Dr. Heather Murray Elkins, Drew University "Daniel Wolpert brings his immense wisdom to bear on the central crisis of our time: climate change. With clarity and grace he shows that the contemplative spiritual traditions can help us heal the alienation between humanity and the rest of creation. An important, timely book." -L. R
