Through reflections on the Vietnamese Zen master, Thich Nhat Hanh, and the medieval Christian mystic, Meister Eckhart, writer Brian Pierce reveals the benefits of openness as a spiritual practice.

Author: Peter Gyulay
Publisher: Peter Gyulay
ISBN: 0648253430
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
The Bahá'í Faith is a religion that was founded by Bahá'u'lláh in the mid-nineteenth century and has since spread all around the world. Though a way of life that is largely grounded in action, the mystical connection between the individual believer and God stands at its core. The seeker of truth aims to walk the mystical path with practical feet. This book highlights the place of mysticism in the Bahá'í Faith through an exploration of its sacred literature. It discusses Bahá'u'lláh’s teachings on God and creation, the purpose of life, the nature of spiritual experience and transformation, as well as the principles and practices that the spiritual seeker utilises on the path of transformation. Through this exploration we discover the potential of the human being to live an active and spiritual life in this world, drawing closer to God. Each person was created in the image of God and has the capacity to mirror all of God’s perfections, experiencing His light both in the outside world and within, in this world and the next.

The Path
Author: Jody Weigel
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449752977
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
If you ever wanted to walk through the Gospels with a friend and discuss how this pertains to your life, here is the perfect opportunity. Come read about Jesus through the lenses of the twenty-first century and relate to life experiences along the way. If you don’t know much about the Bible and don’t want to ask, this is the perfect venue for you. There will be some “ah ha” moments, some “Kleenex” moments, and some funny moments, all drawn within the boundaries of Christian attitudes. You will find some chapters that are purely personal and some that are almost commentary in character, all pointing to themes of nondenominational doctrine to interest you, inform you, entertain you, and encourage you to go further on your own path. Dear Readers, “A good look into a woman’s life with its ups and downs, and always followed by Scripture that gives each experience a higher meaning. All women can relate with different parts of Jody’s memoirs, and combined with insightful Scriptures, we get a comforting reminder of how we are provided for by God in Jesus’ name.” —Priscilla Marsh, Laguna Beach, California Dear Readers, “I have just begun reading the manuscript for The Path, and what a blessing it is! I have already cried, smiled, nodded, and laughed. Thank you, Jody, for 25 years of friendship!” —Shirley Newis, Calgary, Alberta
