A Home for All: 2021 Season of Creation

Jesuit Forum for Social Faith and Justice
Open Space, Vol. 14, no. 1
September 2021

In this OpenSpace, we invite you to reflect on “all our relations” via a meditation on the four traditional elements of earth, water, fire and air. As we explore these relationships please consider:

• How we are intimately connected with all life and the elements. In so doing, take time to experience gratitude for these connections, including our connection to the Creator of all.

•  How humans - particularly the wealthiest among us - are currently threatening the integrity of creation, putting countless species at risk of extinction, destroying the artistry of our Creator, and endangering billions of human lives.

• Pathways towards a genuine ecological conversion, including actions to renew and regenerate our home household.
Each section begins with an invitation for you to take time to connect with earth, water, fire, and air using the elemental breaths practice originally taught by the Sufi teacher Hazrat Inayat Khan.
