Celtic spirituality, being of those roots, is of great comfort to me. I'd love to join a group journeying to visit ancient Celtic sites in the British Isles.

Tony, your books, blogs, facebooks, etc. are a real blessing to me. I don't know how often you are on this particular site. I know some sites (like Facebook) for me can be a real distraction. It seems to me that you are like those monks and sages of old who go way out somewhere where there is less chatter, etc. and only occasionally do you get back to "town" so to speak. So when you get a chance to come to "town" come here and say hello. I will say hello to you on Facebook. Blessings to You and Bee (is she still visiting here in America?)

Dear All, I have been busy during this spring summer period creating a spiritual space in the garden which I am falling deeply in love with. Storytelling has also talken up sometime. I did an interview with a Californian web radio called New Paradigms for a New World. It includes poetry and storytelling and info about why the Anamcara Experience was setup. Here is the link. The show is called Anam cara would you believe.
Hope you enjoy.

Blessings

Tony

Hmmm haven't heard of that one. I'll need to look it up. Thanks for the tip.

I am a J Phillip Newell fan as well. What do folks think of John O'Donahue who wrote a book entitled, "Anamcara", which I own, am reading in bits and pieces and am enjoying.

If you haven't checked out Tony's website about the anamcara experience (see above under "information"), which I just did, you'll find out a lot more about what the anamcara experience is.

When George asked what Soul Friendship means to us, I wrote Great question, George! As for me... I would like to find people that I can trust with my soul. People that learn that they can trust me also. The agape love the Greeks wrote about; the Noble Friend the Chinese discuss. When I love someone so much that I risk losing them as a friend because I always speak the truth.
It seems to me that the more I love someone, the more I can understand them. And the more I seek to understand people, the more I can love them. The more I give, the more I have to give. I like the idea of giving my life away, but would like better discernment in the giving.

Perhaps Shoshin would be a better site for my response?? What do you think, fellow Soul Friends?

Greetings, Friends. Especially George, Sharon, and Matt. I am very delighted to see the recent activity on Anamcara.

Pursuant to your e:Mail, Matt... "Hello Anamcara folks, I've noticed a few new members have joined in these past weeks, and wondered if anyone would like to consider assisting as a moderator of the Anamcara community. Tony ("Anamcara") does not seem to be able to get involved very often, and so I was just seeing if anyone else wanted to take some leadership? Let me know through the website, or email me direct matt@paintedguitar.com.
Blessings.... - Matt Henry"...

I am very interested in learning more about Anamacara because the more I can understand you, the more I can love you... which means that the more I love you the more I can understand you... and on and on. Consequently, I might be interested in a leadership role because my students have been some of my greatest teachers.

Perhaps it would be better if I started a Shoshin (my alma mater University) group. This Japanese word is really more of a spiritual concept: the beginners mind. Going into a friendship assuming that we know nothing. To empty our minds so that we can fill each other with understanding. Again, because the more we understand each other, the more we are capable of loving each other.

I thought of this because of Sharon's comment... "I hope we can have some good conversations here. I have a lot to learn." I also have much to learn.

Thank-you for the wisdom and love that you so generously share on this site!

Your thoughts are valued and appreciated, everyone.

Respectfully, Harmony
