The importance of Pilgrimage
There are 4 important P words in Celtic Spirituality, one of these is life as a Pilgrimage or Journey. Central to this is the need for each Spiritual Seeker to find a
Soul Friend or Anam Cairde ( in Gaelic)
The following is an 8th Century Poem that reflects this
As the hand is made for holding
And the eye for seeing
You have fashioned me for joy
Share with me the vision
that shall find it everywhere
In the wild violet's beauty
In the lark's melody
In the face of a steadfast Anam Cairde
In a child's smile
In a mother's love
In the purity of Jesus
