The Perennial Philosophy Series

Nothing is without voice:
God everywhere can hear
Arising from creation
His praise and echo clear.
You travel far and wide
To scout and see and search;
If God you fail to see,
You have nothing observed.
—Angelus Silesius

How do people sense God's presence in created things? Seeing God Everywhere is an anthology of essays on nature and the sacred which address that question. Written by an impressive list of spiritual leaders and thinkers, these essays explore the question from many different perspectives. Reading these essays enriches our inner lives and enlivens our contemplative imaginations. Surely, this is the "deepest" ecology possible. As a special bonus, at the end of each essay is a short poem on nature and the sacred, taken from various traditions.

“This collection of essays by some of the most important scholars and religious authorities of our time points to the necessity of understanding the current environmental crisis through the lens of spiritual vision: its basic thesis is that the earth itself is sacred, and that to overcome the current agendas of exploitation and waste, we must see the creation and the work of the Creator. This book is essential reading for anyone who has ever felt the presence of God in nature.”

—Michael Fitzgerald, editor of The Sermon of All Creation: Christians on Nature
