About this lesson
Reflecting decades of work, Herman students Anna Racicot and Gabrielle Herbertson organized, edited and compiled two books containing hundreds of Herman’s lessons. The books, Earth Journey I and Earth Journey II, are the source of most of the weekly lessons published on this site.
Each of the books contains more than 100 photos of Herman’s paintings, an introduction detailing the history and suggested use of the lessons, and an appendix that contains additional information about the communities practices.
Both books are available for sale through the Earth Journey organization’s online store.
A Herman Rednick Lesson
Gratitude is the song of the heart. With every grateful feeling there arises a golden offering to the spiritual presence. Through gratitude one integrates with people and with objects. The whole home takes on a glow because of this spirit. It is the secret of dissolving karma, for one makes best use of every condition and situation.
Let us be continuously grateful for every person we see or think about. We are grateful for the sunlight or the healing night, for our magnetic breath, for all colors and all sounds. Thus through this little golden key we shall open the gate to the temple door.
