Summary

In this comprehensive and groundbreaking work, scholar Andrew Harvey unearths traces of the sacred feminine in major world religions as well as in aboriginal and indigenous wisdom traditions. Harvey takes a strong stand against our dependence on "gurus" and "masters," proposing instead an egalitarian model of spiritual community based on intimate groups of mutually supportive guides and friends. The Return of the Mother is an eloquent, passionate call for listeners to rediscover and reclaim an authentic and empowering relationship with the divine and re-create a sacred life in this world.
