Reinhart‘s book provides the most comprehensive guide that I have seen to a practical spirituality for humanity’s current situation … embodied, transformative of both individual and community, trans-doctrinal and open to all dimensions of the cosmos … she draws detailed guidelines for communities of inquiry striving for this transformation … analyses the different dimensions of the emerging spiritual paradigm, drawing on science, social theory and spiritual teaching. The hub of her conception is praxis: integrating being and doing …theory and practice … intertwined, informing each other. Many insights emerge: … oppressors and oppressed need to change … “the real journey takes place in the depths of our souls … psychological, social, cultural, political, economic, ecological and cosmological”... an important book for understanding and engaging with contemporary spirituality.
