Summary of John O'Donohue's Anam Cara

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The world rests in the night. Trees, mountains, fields, and faces are released from the prison of shape and the burden of exposure. Each thing creeps back into its own nature within the shelter of the dark.

#2 The Celts were a nature-oriented people, and their poetry is suffused with the color, power, and intensity of nature. They saw the world as a presence and a companion.

#3 The Celtic world is full of immediacy and belonging. The Celtic mind adored the light. They needed a new and gentle light where the soul could shelter and reveal its ancient belonging. They needed a light that had retained its kinship with the darkness.

#4 The human body is born complete in one moment, but the birth of the human heart is an ongoing process. Everything that happens to you has the potential to deepen you. It brings to birth within you new territories of the heart.
