Sintesi dell'editore
What can your spiritual ancestors teach you about holy living today?
Although they led ascetic lives centuries ago, St. Benedict, the Desert Fathers and Mothers, and other early Christian saints have much to teach everyone in the 21st century. Through their enduring writings, they created blueprints of the spiritual life that remain as powerful in our time as ever.
Now, with the modern mystic and monk Thomas Merton as your teacher, you can meet some of these great contemplatives and encounter their teachings. Under Merton's guidance, you'll travel back through centuries of our spiritual history to meet these men and women to whom God spoke.
You will begin by looking at The Rule of St. Benedict, which remains a relevant, practical, and faith-filled guide for holiness. Next you will look at the beginnings of monasticism in the West before traveling to the East to meet the Desert Fathers and Mothers, whose Sayings remains one of the greatest works in the Christian tradition. You will also examine Athanasius' The Life of Anthony, which is a treasure of the spiritual life.
As you will come to understand, the monastic life stresses that reality and the ideal life are not opposed to each other but rather exist together. Through encountering the lives of these holy men and women, you will become more aware of Christ's presence in the world. Join Merton in discovering the powerful - and timeless - wisdom of Christianity's early masters today.
