The concept of a completely profane world-of a cosmos wholly
desacralized-is a fairly recent invention of the Western mind,
and only now are we beginning to realize the appalling
consequences of trying to order and mold our social, personal,
and creative life in obedience to its dictates. This book
attempts to clarify what is demanded of us if we are to have any
chance of avoiding the impending catastrophe. It examines the
nature and significance of the sacred itself and focuses on the
ever-present, timeless qualities of beauty, love, and miracle
through which we can be renewed and transformed whatever the
condition of the world in which we live.
