The Inner Experience
Author: Thomas Merton
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 0062245082
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Now in paperback, revised and redesigned: This is Thomas Merton's last book, in which he draws on both Eastern and Western traditions to explore the hot topic of contemplation/meditation in depth and to show how we can practice true contemplation in everyday life. Never before published except as a series of articles (one per chapter) in an academic journal, this book on contemplation was revised by Merton shortly before his untimely death. The material bridges Merton's early work on Catholic monasticism, mysticism, and contemplation with his later writing on Eastern, especially Buddhist, traditions of meditation and spirituality. This book thus provides a comprehensive understanding of contemplation that draws on the best of Western and Eastern traditions. Merton was still tinkering with this book when he died; it was the book he struggled with most during his career as a writer. But now the Merton Legacy Trust and experts have determined that the book makes such a valuable contribution as his major comprehensive presentation of contemplation that they have allowed its publication.

Book Description
Life's frenzy yanks us away from nature's calming elements. This book offers 48 moments of contemplation and meditation that follows a review of our links to nature. It is meant to help us walk in peace and respect regardless of our faith or belief system. I have borrowed the knowledge of scientists, quoted poets and writers, and share the wisdom of academics, philosophers, mystics, and the ancients to connect what I know about our seas to life, our trees to strength, our deserts to vision, and our homes to compassion, and all four elements to each other. I encourage you to find quiet moments and discover these outer links to personal inner peace, wisdom, and health.
