SPIRITUAL HIKING ON THE DONAUSTEIG:


The root of the word “Sinn” (meaning) is something like primal ground. One goes to the foundation of existence to find meaning: contemplation.



Earth is the fertile basis for the growth of plants and of very diverse composition. As primal ground it also has a life-sustaining function for us humans, because “grounding” is necessary physically, mentally, and spiritually to withstand the hustle and bustle and hectic pace. For this I need a foothold. Sometimes however one loses the ground beneath one's feet, which means a crisis is looming. Or one is hanging in the air – which is quite insecure. When I “go to the ground,” i.e. all the way down to the primal ground of my soul, I can straighten up anew and continue strengthened.
Many mystics (Hildegard of Bingen, Francis, Eufrasia, Wilbirg...) have experienced this similarly and, like us, matured through crises.



With the symbolic power of “earth” I feel into my support and my security.



  • I feel the ground beneath my feet – earth, moss, asphalt, stones,
    forest floor, gravel....

  • Sensing how I touch my ground, how it supports me.

  • Feeling solid ground beneath me, rooting myself.
