Anamchara (pronounced "ahn-im-KAR-uh" )
Gaelic pre-Christian Druidic term for Soul Friend.
An anamchara represents personal, one-on-one guidance in the spiritual life. This goes counter to the alienating and depersonalizing values of our society, where everything is mass-produced and mass consumed. Against the conformist tendencies of much "assembly line" religion, the soul friend stands for uniqueness and individuality in relationship to the Sacred.
May we, to each other become
Soul friends
Anamchara
Good company.
May we see beyond the masks, see beyond the fear, see beyond the absence of love.
May we be touched with the beauty of the Lover, the Beloved and the Love as we tread into the thin places of the world beyond time and space to the very source of being.
May we learn
to simply “be”
