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
Man has inherited a body from the animal. It contains all the instincts and animal drives. It is the plan for man to transform the animal through the help of the soul.
Thus through love, and beauty expressed in art and music and design, man is being raised from an animal to the soul light. Music is filling the atmosphere with tones to lift the psychic consciousness. Art helps man to see the divine nature in mankind. It helps man to love nature and to love one another.
