The increasingly frenetic pace of our cyberworld compels us to cultivate a spirituality of technology, and that spirituality needs to place us squarely on a blessing path. This book helps us hold an awareness that whatever direction we take, whether on the information highway or a busy freeway, we carry a blessing with us.Blessings for the Fast Paced and Cyberspaced has built-in opportunities to reflect on and savor our varied blessings. It invites us and enables us to slow down enough to be nourished by the holy dark, and by the wisdom of the Celtic, Native American and Jewish berakhah blessing paths, even by Feng Shui and the findings of modern physics. It helps us see ourselves as pilgrims walking on sacred ground in the midst of our busyness and to pray on the way to deadlines.
In our hi-tech, speed-obsessed culture, this author believes we need a spirituality of technology. With wit, wisdom and a gift for storytelling, he reflects on the blessings we miss when we rush heedlessly through a crowded day. He offers ample food for thought and practical suggestions, ranging from blessings and prayers for everything from online pilgrimages on the information highway and sending e-mail messages, to using cell phones wisely. He draws from the Celtic, Native American and Jewish traditions in particular and leaves the reader smiling--seriously.
