Welcome to the Interfaith pages of The Druid Network
Whatever spiritual tradition we follow, in our search for peace, understanding and inner freedom, more often than not we have more in common with others who follow a religious path than with those who do not. We focus on the sacred, questing wisdom, the source of hope, of ethics and inspiration, of life itself.
Our aim with these pages is to broaden the horizon within which many think about Druidry, by describing the natural threads that connect us together and to create opportunities for those within the Druid community to connect with those in other faith communities to work toward mutual understanding and the accomplishment of shared goals.
So far we have begun to explore ways in which Druidic philopsophy and theology interweave with other spiritual traditions, from Celtic Christianity and Gnosticism, to Egyptian Mysteries, native American spiritualities and Wicca. Articles leads you to writings (some of which are also on the general Articles page) by people from across the religious spectrum. This journey of discovery is just the very start.
Projects which we are involved with, either initiated by The Druid Network, or simply supported by us in terms of energy and skills, are described on Projects . In the coming days, this section will increase with opportunities for you to get involved in specific Interfaith activies.
We are working on starting an additional category of articles and projects which involve connecting with other faiths that are not part of your own path. There will be ideas about organizing charitible projects or political action together with other faith groups, how to build understanding in the larger community and break down fear and stereotypes, and places to connect with interfaith organizations and congresses.
Soon there will also Links to other sites which may help in our journey of discovery. If you have links that you think would be good for this area, please email us.
If you have any ideas, contributions, articles or inspiration to share, whether you come from the Druid tradition or any other spiritual or religious standpoint, please get in touch. We are interested in a wide range of writing styles including personal experience, how-to, and 'zine-style news and information.
