Bøger af Pablo D'Ors

'If you listen carefully to a story, you will never be the same again, since that story will enter your heart and, like a worm, it will end up gnawing away at all the obstacles that oppose the divine. So even if you read the stories in this book just to pass the time, there's no guarantee that one of them won't end up breaking down your defenses and exploding when you least expect it. You're warned!" With as much humor as lyricism, with as much lightness as depth, this book addresses the great questions of self-knowledge and personal growth: the body, emptiness, shadow, contemplation, identity, forgiveness and everyday life. A narrative treatise on spirituality with extraordinary potential for transformation. A literary artifact that, with the unmistakable personal mark of Pablo d'Ors, inaugurates what could well be called a literature of light.

This essay collects, with as much modesty as ambition, a spiritual itinerary for the men and women of today. An essential rereading, as simple as it is profound, of the legacy of Christ, beacon of humanity. The gospel as a map of consciousness and as a permanent existential provocation. Biography of Light is a text designed for all spiritual seekers and, therefore, written from a cultural rather than a confessional perspective. A path, as radical as possible, for enlightenment, understanding it as something simple and everyday.

A Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation shares his struggles as a beginning meditator and the revelation that the silence of meditation offers an intense engagement with the world's true nature.
