  • af Brother David & PhD Steindl-Rast
    213,95 kr.

    Hermit, Zen Christian, spiritual globetrotter: in time for his 90th birthday in July of 2016, "Brother David" tells his incomparably rich life story. Beginning with his childhood in Vienna, he describes his time in World War II and his years as a student after the war, his family's emigration to the US and his entry into the then newly founded Benedictine monastery in the state of New York. There, he soon began looking for what were then still untrodden spiritual paths with undiscovered entryways to non-Christian religions. He became particularly involved in the dialogue between Christianity and Buddhism, founding the "Center for Spiritual Studies" in 1968, together with Rabbis, Buddhists, Hindus and Muslims. His work encouraging dialogue between religions earned him the 1975 Martin Buber Award. Still traveling on occasion to teach or write, Brother David is now living in a Benedictine monastery in Europe. Mysticism is his mission--but not a mysticism devoid of connection to the world. His is a mysticism of the everyday, of life immediate in the now, of experiencing fully. He is convinced that God's spirit speaks in and to us all. Unparalleled: unique biography of one of the most significant spiritual teachers and global guest speakers, +

  • - Meditating on the Mystical Vision of Teilhard de Chardin
    af David Richo
    183,95 kr.

    Everything Ablaze begins with an introduction to Teilhard's work. It then explores mystical themes in his perspectives on science and religion. Each chapter combines relevant quotations from Teilhard and contemplations on them. The goal of mystical transformation is nothing less than a new life in Christ. Teilhard shows us the path to that possibility. His mysticism is earth-conscious. His words help open us to the mysterious forces in the universe that reveal God's face. The meditative responses to the quotations include practices that bring Teilhard's ideas into daily life and will be welcomed by a general lay audience. +

  • - The Meaning of the Fatima Prayer
    af Stephen Bullivant & Luke Arredondo
    108,95 kr.

    The so-called "Fátima prayer"--O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell, and lead all souls to heaven, especially those in most need of thy mercy, amen--due primarily to its widespread use as a rosary decade prayer, surely ranks among the Church's most popular prayers. Despite its brevity, it is a prayer of remarkable theological depth--not to mention, daring. In the space of just twenty-nine words, it broaches some of the great themes of Christianity: sin, forgiveness, mercy, heaven, hell. It also touches on two hot topics within contemporary Catholic discussion--having a personal relationship with "my Jesus, ' and the permissibility of hoping that "all souls" may ultimately be saved. O My Jesus is a concise work of both popular theology and spiritual writing not unlike the kinds of interpretive commentaries on key prayers produced by Christian theologians since at least the third century. +

Their book is less a scholarly exposition on a Teilhardian doctrine of love than a masterful illumination of love as the core energy of evolving life. Each chapter clearly explains Teilhard's insights and then provides practical ways of incorporating these ideas into daily life. +

  • - A Jungian and Mystical Path to the Divine Feminine
    af David Richo
    178,95 kr.

    In exploring the Divine Feminine imaged in Mary, When Mary Becomes Cosmic opens us to another way to honor her--not unlike the mystics, who have traveled along this way to the depths--and helps us to explore the richness that lies in what Jung referred to as the Catholic Church's treasury of image and metaphor. The archetypal images found in the ancient and treasured "Litany of Loreto" form the framework for this book, and enriched with quotes from a variety of spiritual writers, Richo guides us through reflections on: "Who is Mary?" and "What is the Divine Feminine?" Finally, in the appendix, "A Retreat with Mary," the author encourages prayer with suggestions for various ways of praying with music, art, movement, silence, etc., as well as "being" with the image of Mary. +

  • - Healing Our Shame
    af Wilkie Au & Noreen Cannon Au

We need but open ourselves to hear God's voice reassuring us, "I love you, no matter what!" Using Scripture and the practice of imaginative contemplation, this book will help readers be open to a deepening knowledge of God's unconditional love. Highlights: - It integrates psychology and spirituality to present a holistic spirituality. - It offers useful spiritual exercises and points for reflection at the end of each chapter. - It is written by authors who have over thirty years of experience in the work of therapy and spiritual direction. - It is written by authors who have experienced life both as vowed religious and as a married couple. +

  • - A Spiritual Path for Transformation
    af Louis M. Savary & Patricia H. Berne
    178,95 kr.

    Despite the fact that tremendous strides have been made to reduce human suffering and efforts to alleviate human anguish continue onward, we are still living in an unfinished, evolving world filled with pain, frustration, loss, grief, and adversity. Based on the spirituality of Teilhard de Chardin, this book addresses the question: How are those who suffer called to live with and understand their pain? This book shows how it is possible that those who suffer can, by transforming the tremendous potential energy hidden in their pain, become coworkers with God in bringing our world to more fullness of life, even as they suffer. With the new spirituality presented in Teilhard de Chardin--Seven Stages of Suffering, one realizes that the very principle and purpose of human life on Earth has shifted from a traditional focus on saving your soul and getting to heaven, to one of contributing one's whole life and efforts--including our suffering and pain--to God's grand evolutionary project +
