The prayers contained in Celtic Prayers reflect the fusion of religion and life. Celtic Christians made no distinction between religion and daily life, no division between the spiritual and the material realms. They perceived the divine spark in every person, animal, and plant, and in every event. Their religion permeated every aspect of their existence. Even the most mundane activities merit prayers for God's blessings. Moments of crisis or scenes of great beauty stimulate prayers of deep emotion. These prayers provide a model for anyone who wishes to "pray without ceasing." This book of Celtic prayers differs from others in the market because its interior design is full-color, with art and graphics.

This unique collection of living spirituality, rising from the depths of Celtic Christianity, represents a hidden, oral tradition of greatest power and beauty, handed down through countless generations of Hebridean peasants. During his travels, Alexander Carmichael would visit the peasants in their huts, spending hours in front of their peat fires while they "intoned in a low, recitative manner" these poems and prayers. This is the most complete anthology of Celtic oral tradition ever assembled.

Devotees of Irish spirituality -- and those interested in Irish Heritage will cherish this authentic collection of Celtic wisdom and prayer.
The Celtic Christians beheld the world around them and perceived the divine life of God as upholding every aspect of the material universe.
