前表紙
Shambhala Publications, 2003 - 303 ページ
A new edition of the teachings of one of the 20th-century's Christian authors. Here Thomas Merton covers a diverse range of subjects including faith, spiritual wonder, the night of the senses, and renunciation. The text moves the reader through the traditional phases of contemplation, and gives an idea of what to expect as the spiritual path unfolds, inviting us all to cast our awful solemnity to the winds and join in the general dance.
