Throughout history, the human race has felt a deep need to connect to and understand the spiritual realm that we sense behind everyday reality. We have always sought out the help of shamans, healers, priests, mystics and elders to guide and challenge us, to deepen our spiritual understanding and create a practical spiritual connection of our own. In the 21st century, this search has been accelerated for many people. At the same time, institutions that traditionally have provided spiritual support are struggling to survive. We have set out to discover an ever-evolving spirituality on our own yet at certain times on our path we want formal spiritual guidance, mentoring and direction.
