This is Merton at his best, applying ancient wisdom to the longings of our age through thoughtful commentary on Scripture and writers of the Western spiritual tradition. This book distills Merton's own reading and long experience with contemplation.

A very sobering and cleansing lecture

Hard hitting and relentless exposure of how contemplation can become a trap for the unprepared. Tough reading for sure, but what's the point of living in illusion?
