We absolutely love the Spirituality in the City section of our magazine, where readers describe the beautiful human experiences that have brought meaning and joy into their lives. Read on below for our Winter 2019/20 edition, in which readers answered the question, ‘what does love mean to me?’

Paying Homage to Ram Dass
The legendary Ram Dass passed away at his home in Maui, Hawai’i, on Sunday December 22nd. We were honoured to pay tribute to him in our Winter 2019/20 issue, and we know that our upcoming screening of his new documentary, ‘Becoming Nobody’, will be beautiful, bittersweet and poignant. This amazing soul touched many lives with his profound teachings. Earlier this month, we published an extract from our article about him … and we now offer the full article, with deep reverence and respect for this teacher who has now passed on to another plane of existence, embracing the next stage of his soul’s journey. Thank you for everything, Ram Dass.
We were thrilled to sit down with spiritual pioneer Jac O’Keeffe for our Winter 2019/20 issue recently. During our time together, we chatted about her awakening journey, what it means to live in integrity, owning your truth, and more. This is a sneak peek of the article we published in the magazine – pick up a copy or subscribe to read the full feature. You can also listen to our full interview on SoundCloud!

Positive Nights Presents: Awaken Feminine Spirituality with Aedamar Kirrane
We are delighted to present ‘Awakening Feminine Spirituality: an Evening of Diving Into Love With Aedamar Kirrane’. This event will take place on Thursday June 27th, from 7.30 to 9.30 p.m. in Bewley’s Café, 78/79 Grafton Street, Dublin 2.
Aedamar Kirrane is a writer and a philosopher. When deeply engaged in the search for the meaning of life during her philosophy studies, she experienced a spontaneous spiritual awakening. For the first time ever, she came into a deep sense of meaning and purpose to her life. Her spiritual experiences changed the course of her life, causing her to undertake deep studies in mysticism across all religions and wisdom systems. Ultimately, Aedamar came into a life changing understanding of God as Love, and felt a deep sense of calling to pursue the path of teaching the mystical Oneness of all through Love.
She is now committed to supporting others to find deeper meaning and purpose in life: to come into a direct and unmediated relationship with God through the practice of Love and meditation.
She has just finished writing a memoir about her spiritual experiences. She is passionate to share her philosophical learning about the de-spiritualisation of the world that began in the last Axial Age, 2,500 years ago, at the beginning of the Age of Reason. Humanity is now entering a new Axial Age and shifting into The Spiritual Age, but we are unprepared for this shift, because individually and culturally, our spiritual faculty is completely under-developed. There is now an urgent need to re-embrace the sacred and learn to live in co-creation, cooperation and collaboration with each other, Nature and God.
Aedamar is committed to supporting the re-spiritualisation of the world. Her calling is to promote Love as a means of working towards world peace, healing humanity and healing Mother Nature. Aedamar now believes that spiritual awakening is as natural a milestone in life as learning to walk. Everyone is called to awaken at this time, but we don’t always know how to respond because historically we have lost touch with the true essence of our spiritual nature. Her commitment is to support women in particular to awaken to this New Age of Feminine Spirituality and Love.
