James Cowan chronicles the significance of sites across the continent that Aboriginal peoples have regarded as spiritually charged for tens of thousands of years, illuminating the deep cosmological frameworks — including the Dreaming — that give these locations their sacred meaning. Written with lyrical reverence and scholarly depth, the work argues that the land itself is a living text, encoded with stories, ceremonies, and ancestral memory that Western culture has only begun to comprehend. Cowan draws on his extensive engagement with Aboriginal elders and his own spiritual inquiries to illustrate how sacred geography shapes identity, culture, and humanity's relationship with the divine. The result is a profound meditation on place, belonging, and the invisible architecture of the sacred world.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48820228686043,"sku":"9780731801923-SECONDHAND","price":20.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3cb0ea42-7749-4de7-9c31-8a3d2595411e.png?v=1780054777","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780731801923-secondhand-sacred-places-in-australia","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
