Only shadowy traces of the Pre-Christian religion of Ireland survive. Despite the remarkable openness of the clerical scribes in incorporating native traditions into their masterful epics such as the TainBoCulainge and the fictional histories of the island, what we have now are stories woven into a Christian and Classical framework where native Gods became exceptional mortals. Just as certain of the literary mystics of the Gaelic revival, the author seeks to make the connection between a lost native Irish spirituality and the sublime theologies of the Indian sages.
