Book Description
¿Qué queda cuando las respuestas del Catecismo de los días de la infancia ya no satisfacen nuestras preguntas por el sentido de la vida? ¿Sigue teniendo validez la religión en el mundo de hoy, teniendo en cuenta los descubrimientos de las ciencias? Willigis Jäger nos muestra que para él resulta más fácil afrontar las preguntas en vez de eludirlas. En el camino de la experiencia mística, que nos conduce a la vida cotidiana, nuestras preguntas existenciales encuentran respuestas sorprendentes y clarificadoras. Estas respuestas nos conducen a un ámbito en el que son compatibles tanto ciencia y mística como experiencia transpersonal y religión. En este libro el popular autor nos orienta en el camino hacia la experiencia mística y nos ofrece respuestas convincentes. Una guía para todos los que buscan el camino transpersonal en medio de la vida cotidiana. Willigis Jäger, nacido en 1925, benedictino desde el año 1946, es uno de los guías espirituales más importantes de nuestro tiempo. Como sacerdote benedictino está profundamente enraizado en la tradición contemplativa del cristianismo. Para ahondar sus experiencias transcendentales se entrenó en el camino radical del zen en un centro de la escuela zen Sanbo-Kyodan, de Kamakura (Japón) y después de doce años de entrenamiento fue nombrado Maestro Zen con el nombre de Ko-un Roshi. En el año 1983 fundó en Würzburg, Alemania, la casa de San Benito, perteneciente a la abadía de Münsterschwarzach, que dirigió hasta el año 2002. A partir de ese momento imparte cursillos de zen y de contemplación en el 'Benediktushof', puesto a su disposición para que pueda continuar su importante labor espiritual. Cada año acude a España para dar conferencias e impartir cursillos.

Book Description
Gisela Zuniga, antigua alumna de Karlfried Graf Dürckheim y Willigis Jäger, pero también de San Juan de la Cruz, Teresa de Ávila, el Maestro Eckhart, Heinrich Seuse, Johannes Tauler y tantísimos otros maestros cristianos, ha descubierto su propio camino de contemplación místico-cristiana y lo enseña en numerosos centros de meditación de todo el mundo. En este libro sintetiza por primera vez lo que se ha esforzado por comunicar en incansables sesiones a sus alumnos. Es el camino del desasimiento que busca encontrar lo auténtico; el camino de la quietud que aspira a cobrar consciencia tras la quietud del último misterio; el camino que conduce de vuelta de lo superficial a lo profundo, del tener al ser, de la dispersión al origen. Con tiento y paciencia muestra una y otra vez lo esencial, lo que importa. El lector es incluido e invitado a participar en la comunidad de los que están en el camino. El resultado es un libro estimulante e inspirado, un indicador de caminos en el que se puede confiar. Gisela Zuniga, nació en 1933 en Siegen, Westfalia, y es licenciada en filología en las universidades de Bonn, Madrid y Friburgo de Brisgovia. Tras haber sido formada en la terapia centrada en el cliente de Carl Rogers, viene andando el camino espiritual de la contemplación desde hace 31 años. Alumna de Willigis Jäger desde 1980, fue elegida por él para dirigir cursos de contemplación, actividad que viene desempeñando sin pausa desde hace casi 20 años.

Book Description
The central figure of this novel is a young man whose parents were executed for conspiring to steal atomic secrets for Russia. His name is Daniel Isaacson, and as the story opens, his parents have been dead for many years. He has had a long time to adjust to their deaths. He has not adjusted. Out of the shambles of his childhood, he has constructed a new life—marriage to an adoring girl who gives him a son of his own, and a career in scholarship. It is a life that enrages him. In the silence of the library at Columbia University, where he is supposedly writing a Ph.D. dissertation, Daniel composes something quite different. It is a confession of his most intimate relationships—with his wife, his foster parents, and his kid sister Susan, whose own radicalism so reproaches him. It is a book of memories: riding a bus with his parents to the ill-fated Paul Robeson concert in Peekskill; watching the FBI take his father away; appearing with Susan at rallies protesting their parents’ innocence; visiting his mother and father in the Death House. It is a book of investigation: transcribing Daniel’s interviews with people who knew his parents, or who knew about them; and logging his strange researches and discoveries in the library stacks. It is a book of judgments of everyone involved in the case—lawyers, police, informers, friends, and the Isaacson family itself. It is a book rich in characters, from elderly grand- mothers of immigrant culture, to covert radicals of the McCarthy era, to hippie marchers on the Pen-tagon. It is a book that spans the quarter-century of American life since World War II. It is a book about the nature of Left politics in this country—its sacrificial rites, its peculiar cruelties, its humility, its bitterness. It is a book about some of the beautiful and terrible feelings of childhood. It is about the nature of guilt and innocence, and about the relations of people to nations. It is The Book of Daniel.

Book Description
"Hidden Mountain Secret Garden: a theological contemplation on prayer" helps the reader discover the riches of mental prayer in the Catholic Tradition. In fact, the images of the "Hidden Mountain" and the "Secret Garden" are ancient metaphors for contemplative prayer, a kind of prayer that begins and ends in faith. This book is especially for those whose prayer is a search for the loving eyes of One who has conquered death. This kind of prayer beholds the wonder of Christ's living but hidden presence in one's highest thoughts and most noble aspirations as well as in one's instinctual urges and deepest longings. The ecstasy of this kind of prayer extends beyond even the vast unexplored horizons of the human heart and opens to an immensity of such excessive mercy that all else is forgotten -- and only love remains. The whole world needs this love: it is the secret garden, the hidden mountain, the inexhaustible riches only prayer knows and an excess of grace only prayer can make known. This is why Blessed John Paul II told the Church not to be afraid to open wide the doors of our hearts to Christ and it is why He told the young people of the world to be proud to proclaim the Gospel of the Lord. For those brave souls who have faithfully open their hearts to the Lord through this discipline of this kind of prayer, every Christian owes you a debt of gratitude. For those who want to join them, this work encourages you along the way -- for the journey you endeavor is at once the most perilous, the most heart-rending and the most wonderful adventure this world has ever known. "Dr. Anthony Lilles has authored an introduction to prayer that is inspiring and encouraging. For those desiring to pray this is a resource that is full of practical advice - written simply and attractively. This book bears the mark of a man - husband, father and teacher - who is not only imbued with the wisdom of the Saints, but who has also, through his own prayer, learned how all of us can, through prayer, foster faith in and love for Jesus and his Gospel." THOMAS G. WEINANDY, O.F.M., CAP. Executive Director for the Secretariat for Doctrine United States Conference of Catholic Bishops This is a wonderful book. I've taught spiritual theology many years and I wish I had had this text use. In fact, I wish I had written this book. It is scriptural, patristic, historical, theological, mystical, experiential and user friendly. Dr. Lilles takes us through the spiritual journey of prayer, citing Fathers and doctors, saints and even sinners to guide us on our Christian way toward contemplation. Weaving many themes into a harmonious whole, he opens up the life of contemplation for all Christians, our baptismal birthright in a way that is accessible and attractive. This is a book one will read more than once. FR. GILES DIMOCK, O.P., S.T.D University Parish of St. Thomas Aquinas At the University of Virginia In this book we find the real meat of the new evangelization. The church in America will not be renewed by "facts about Jesus" but only through one's choice to let Christ reach the heart and change it from within. It is an ancient message received by only few: Do not be afraid of letting go of what now defines you. Let Christ tell you who you are. Dr. Lilles is one of the ablest guides to lead us through to such a choice. Will I stay with knowledge about Jesus or will I enter the garden of prayer and finally come to know Him!! Do not be afraid to be loved, read this book. DEACON JAMES KEATING, PH.D, Institute for Priestly Formation, Omaha, NE
