Posted in Health, Soul and Spirit, Spiritual Growth, Spiritual Healing, Spiritual Traditions on 06/03/2009 12:29 pm by adminThis interview explores the work of Dr Jonathan Ellerby. For twenty years he has looked at spiritual traditions from more than forty different cultures around the world.. His book Return to the Sacred.categorizes the spiritual terrain and looks at the different spiritual paths that are available for people to take. The categorization of these paths helps us to get an idea of our own spiritual personality and which path would be most suited for an individual. His book explores the twelve master paths. Just like people prefer different kinds of music and clothes there are certain spiritual practices that are more suited for us because of our aptitudes. Within these twelve paths there are four categories that revolve around the mental, emotional, spiritual, and physical dynamics. Some of us are mental and want to study written works while some of us need a more of an emotional connection. There are those of us who need movement and can’t wait to
get up and dance and move. And there are the soul type who crave a direct experience of the divine and tend to be more extreme in their practices with fasting and pilgrimages.
