The Roaring of the Sacred River: The Wilderness Quest for Vision and Self Healing
Steven Foster and Meredith Little
An important landmark in the eco-psychology of wilderness passage rites. In this companion to THE BOOK OF THE VISION QUEST, Steven Foster and Meredith Little examine, blend, and plot ancient therapeutic strategies in “field therapy”. Initiatory in scope, THE ROARING carefully examines the components, the nuts and bolts, of self-healing in the wilderness. Actual “case histories” of “candidates” illustrate the practical aspect of the craft of being a wilderness passage rite guide.
“Steven Foster and Meredith Little have brought their extraordinary gift of seeing and love to thousands of individuals who are doing transformational work. Their important and wonderfully written book outlines an ancient and future strategy for transformation of self and the world. Not merely a teaching manual, it brings the poetry of the wilds to the people, and is filled with humor and insight.” – Joan Halifax Roshi, Upaya Zen Center
“In bringing back these ancient rites of passage Steven and Meredith are helping to restore our ruptured psychic bonds with the Earth, and doing deep healing for our desperately troubled society. I profoundly respect their visionary work and rejoice in their compassionate sharing and communication. THE ROARING is indispensable and highly useful.” – Ralph Metzner, PhD, author Maps of Consciousness and The Well of Remembrance
