Synopsis: Life-affirming and lyrical writings for inspiration and meditation, from saints and sages of the Christian, Hindu, Sufi, Jewish, Native American, Buddhist, and Taoist traditions.
Eknath Easwaran taught meditation and spiritual living for nearly 40 years and drew deep, ongoing inspiration from the sacred literature of the world's traditions.
Read these 149 passages for daily inspiration, for the insights they give into other spiritual traditions, for the light they throw on how to live, for the sustenance they offer when we feel sad or tired, and for the deep transformation they can bring in Easwaran's spiritual practice of passage meditation.
Rich supporting material includes detailed background notes, suggestions for memorization and for studying the texts, and instruction in using these sacred writings in passage meditation.
From the Publisher: These pieces are positive, practical, powerful. They have been chosen not only for their universal appeal and literary beauty, but for the light they throw on how to live. They tell us truths we know, but may want to be reminded of often: that life has a purpose, in which each person has a meaningful part; that all creation is one and full of divinity; that every moment is precious, and what gives life meaning is love and human relationships. Brief instructions in the author's method of meditation are included, making it easy to see for oneself the power these passages have for transforming daily life. 208 pages.
