Andrew Harvey is a Shakespeare scholar and mystic. He envisions true spirituality to be the divinization of earthly life through spiritual practice. These practices can take many forms and can be taken from any religious tradition. The process of divinization will result in the gradual elimination of ecological destruction and of all forms of prejudice, especially racism, misogyny, and homophobia. He lives in Nevada with his husband, the photographer Eyrk Hanut.

Andrew Eldritch (born Andrew William Harvey Taylor, May 15, 1959) is the frontman, singer, songwriter and the only remaining original member of The Sisters of Mercy, a band that emerged from the British post punk scene, reoriented gothic rock and, in later years, also flirted with pop and hard rock.
Andrew Eldritch was born in the small city of Ely in East Anglia, England in 1959, the same year as fellow post punk icons Robert Smith of The Cure and Morrissey (originally of The Smiths).
Though Andrew Eldritch is often called the "Godfather of Goth" [5], The Sisters of Mercy (the main artistic vehicle of Andrew Eldritch), despite being formed in 1980, were originally not very popular in the post punk sub-genre that the British press, in the early 1980s, had labelled, both the artists and their audience, Goth.
AndrewHarvey has been studying Rumi's work for 30 years and will present his electric vision of Rumi’s life, mystical journey, and Divine philosophy, stressing their essential importance to the massive transformation that is taking place in our contemporary crisis.
For AndrewHarvey, Rumi is the supreme poet and exemplar of that force of sacred passion that all Sacred Activists now need to fuse themselves with so as to discover the boundless energy that they will need to continue to work for love and justice in a dangerous world.
AndrewHarvey believes that the survival of humanity depends upon the fullest possible restoration of the powers, passions, and glories of the Divine Feminine.
