The Findhorn Foundation’s North American reception

Record summary

The Findhorn Foundation, founded in Scotland, became an influential source for North American New Age teaching through books, workshops, lectures, and environmental-spiritual literature during the 1970s and 1980s. Its traditions include guidance attributed to inner voices and teachings associated with Eileen Caddy, as well as claims about cooperation with nature spirits. This is a comparative lead for examining imported esoteric communities and ecological spirituality. Researchers should document particular North American events or editions rather than infer local practice from the Scottish community alone.
