David Tacey in his book, "The Spirituality Revolution" argues that "all symbols [and] representations of the divine die, and society has to set about to renew and remake its sacred images" (2003, p.158). "The Whole Elephant" investigates the limits of language currently used for explaining the nature of divinity and proposes a new language. It sets about taking up the task set by Tacey, proposing alternative images or representations of the divine relevant to a contemporary audience. These new images draw upon the domains not only of religion, but of science and psychology, history and philosophy in order to render the sacred accessible once again.
