Document Summary
Pastoral space is normally associated with a purity and innocence not found in the social centre. Leave the corrupt social space to enter into the presence of what revelations are available in the natural space beyond it. The space apart is thought to harbour energies or presences that we are not quiet enough to experience society. You go out into the space beyond and make yourself available to what may speak to you there . The stepping out away from a given or entrenched perspective into an alternative view. * prophet figure passes between experience and innocence. God, higher power, the heavens, the music of the spheres, an orderly and benign cosmos. Garden of eden, a lost world or utopia; world we were meant for but don"t live in. Society, the world as it is; nature as we know it in its regular cycles of birth and death, the turn of the seasons, etc.
