| Summary: | Throughout the centuries, Christian theologians have been simultaneously perplexed and inspired by the doctrine of the Trinity. Countless philosophical attempts have tried to balance the Trinity in a complex metaphysics that is static enough to provide meaning but fluid enough to maintain at least an appearance of monotheism. Unfortunately, nearly all of these formulations leave us with an attenuated Spirit and many of them seem to forget the Spirit altogether. Raimon Panikkar, however, has introduced a uniquely advaitin Christian perspective to the Trinitarian enigma which takes the role of the Spirit seriously. In the context of a diversified discussion on religion and ecology, this article turns our attention to the role of the Holy Spirit in Panikkar’s theology and the promise that such a pneumatology holds regarding ecology. |
