| Description: |
The Art of Thomas Merton brings together entries from Merton's journals, extracts from his letters, quotations from his books and his countless articles, and lines from his poetry.
But what truly sets this collection apart is the inclusion of his abstract drawings, exercises in quiet reflection that convey something of the awareness through silence that he was always eager to explore. The drawings invite us to stop, and reflect, and surprise ourselves by new depths of awareness and understanding.
This is not a book to speed-read, to read for study or for the acquisition of knowledge. It demands that the words be read, the images gazed upon, in the manner of the practice of Lectio Divina, allowing God to speak through your reading and looking attentively, peacefully, and reflectively until a word, phrase, or image strikes the imagination or the heart. |
