Description: Paul gave a highly illustrated tour of the Ancient World, looking at several varieties of magical mindscapes of the past. We see how older civilisations invested their landscapes with religious, mythological, and magical meaning. We travel from Native American desert markings to Buddhist sacred soundscapes, from Egyptian living landscapes to oriental gardens, and much else besides, raising the question, "Can we draw environmental wisdom today from the ancient idea of sacred geography?" This presentation is in celebration of Paul's major new book, "Sacred Geography", published by Gaia Books.
