The Daily Reader for Contemplative Living

Rezensionen / Stimmen

[Father Thomas Keating] has many inspiring things to say about repentance, fighting the false self, faith, silence, reverence, and the fundamental goodness of human nature. * Spirituality & Health magazine * The writings of Thomas Keating are one of the most profound, popular, and appropriate introductions to Christian contemplative prayer and practice today....this book is a beautiful introduction to both Keating's thinking and his methodologies. I would recommend it either to a person wanting to begin a prayer practice or to a person who wants to spend a year reflecting upon the works of Keating. * Bulletin of Monastic Interreligious Dialogues * Some books, like some people, can be pronounced 'wonderful' after only a brief encounter; more meetings simply reinforce our initial judgment. This is that sort of book, an ideal vade mecum for those who desire to retrieve the wonderfulness so often obscured by the distracting demands of our ordinary routines, the sheer dailiness of our daily lives that dulls our spiritual sensitivities. Here then is a wake-up call we need to 'seize the day' once again by attending to the promptings within our hearts and allowing the most gentle of companions to accompany us through it. * George W. Hunt, S.J., former editor-in-chief of America *
