Thresholds: Anastasia Freeman interviews Trevor Parton

Trevor Parton is a Christian Brother who defies expectations. Since the early 1990s, he has been at the emergent edge of ecological spirituality and Earth literacy education. Once a passionate science educator, he later founded the Centre for Spirituality and Ecology at Glenburn in Victoria, Australia. In this interview he discusses the history of the Centre and reveals some of his thinking influenced by the Mystic tradition. He talks of the need to re-imagine the concept of original sin, as well as embracing non-dualistic spirituality and spiritual ecology. Trevor also leaves us with some practical advice for how to deepen our connection to Earth.
