Emerald River of Compassion: The Old Earth [Hardcover]

Rowena Pattee Kryder (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 1994

The Emerald River of Compassion is a journey through Gaia -- the actual consciousness of the Earth. By means of poetic fiction, mythologist & master storyteller Rowena Pattee Kryder weaves a tale of all people & all time. By piercing Gaia through stories of individuals, she reveals how we coincide with or diverge from the structure of nature. This is a brilliant exploration of the multidimensional richness that we all, knowingly or unknowingly, participate in. As the lives of the characters unfold, time is continuously contracting into a dense impact of insight & meaning, & then expanding into release & expression.

Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

Against the background of the mythic interplay of spirit and matter, a group of people from various cultures cross paths of destiny, remembering past incarnations and learning to blend their karma with the "emerald river" that enlivens the natural world. Multiple voices are the vehicle for a mammoth chronicle of the spiritual history of the world by New Age author Kryder. Reminiscent of Piers Anthony's recent Isle of Woman (LJ 9/15/93), this first volume in a projected trilogy will appeal to Gaian enthusiasts and devotees of new mysticism.
