You'll need two copies - one to keep and re-read, one to lend to your
friends. An astonishingly grounded and wise guide to contemplative
prayer. Not a "how to" book on techniques,but something much deeper,
unpacking the nature and goal of contemplative practice as a way of
uncovering the stillness deep within us, the place where we meet God.
Although entirely rooted in Christian faith, the book makes some
connections with other perspectives, particularly from cognitive
psychology. If you have any experience of contemplative prayer, this is
the book to encourage you further along the path to "the silent land".
