A deep and luminous vision
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
It's not everyday that an author catches my attention. Beatrice Bruteau, Philosopher,Contemplative, Christian, shines a new light on the deepest truths about ourselves: each of us has at-one-ment with God, here and now and with each other.The book has been praised by many well known and established authors in this field: Dom Bede Griffiths, George Maloney SJ, Patrick Hart, OCSO, John Shea, SwamiYogeshananda and Thomas Keating, OCSO.Themes that the author touches upon:1) Leisure: Relaxing Ego-Consciousness_Stop thinking of ourselves as past or future.Concentrate on the present moment, reality. "Harden not your hearts, be still and beopen".2) Stillness: Relaxing the Body_Help from Jesus, the teacher. In John 16:33 Jesus says," I have said these things to you that in me you may have peace. In the world you havetribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."3) Meditation 4) The Finite and the Infinite5) Sin and Salvation6) Heart of Jesus, Root of Reality7) The Communion of Saints8) Trinitarian Manifestation: This is the ultimate desire, to be one with God and with oneanother. MT 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am Iin the midst of them."
