The Celtic Vision
$14.95

Prayers, Blessings, Songs, and Invocations From the Gaelic Tradition

Edited by Esther de Waal with Foreword by Timothy Joyce, OSB

Devotees of Irish spirituality - and those interested in Irish heritage - will cherish this authentic collection of Celtic wisdom and prayer. Assembled from the original six volumes of Carmichael's Carmina Gadelica by noted Celtic author, Esther de Waal, this rich array includes elements of piety that address every aspect of life. Morning prayers ask God's favor for a new beginning, while night prayers thankfully recall the blessings of the day gone by. Every aspect of daily life is sanctified with prayers for hearth, home, work and play. Blessings, invocations and good wishes catch the Celtic spirit affirming the presence and power of the Creator. Petitions to God for a safe journey and protection are mixed with humble prayers of acceptance at the time of death. Sections on Mary, the saints, angels and Christmas Carols add seasoning to this unique book of Irish spirituality. Providing an inspiring look into the Irish Soul, The Celtic Vision will be treasured by all who seek a deeply personal spirituality, and by those seeking an intimate relationship with God. 208 pages; Paperback Ligouri Publications Spring 2002.
