What the World Has Lost

At the end of Huston Smith's chapter on "Primal Religions," he quotes John Collier:
They has what the world has lost: the ancient, lost reverence and passion for human personality joined with the ancient, lost reverence and passion for the earth and its web of life. Since before the Stone Age they have tended that passion as a central sacred fire. It should be our long hope to renew it in us all.


I have a long hope to help renew this passion in us all. I also know that it starts at home, which is precisely what I am working on.
