Spiritual Literacy
Currently we are doing readings from this text. Usually a series of short excerpts by five or six authors but on a single topic, such as the sacred in everyday objects, or nature, or home. We then do a twenty minute silent meditation followed by reflection and discussion.

John Donne
Over the next few weeks we will be exploring readings from the sacred literature of other traditions as well as from the Christian and Hebrew traditions. The readings I have in mind are these:
"Krishna Reveals himself to Arjuna" in the Hindu Bagavad Gitta
Passages from the Tao Te Ching
"God speaks to Job from out of the whirlwind" from the Book of Job.
John Donne's "Devotions upon Emergent Occasions, no. 17": For whom the bell tolls. Published in 1627
Some songs of the Sufi's: Rumi, and Hafiz
A few of Rainer Maria Rilke's poems.
I encourage any suggestions you have for additional readings.
