Thomas Keating - Cynthia Bourgeault
The first portrait of spiritual luminary Thomas Keating’s remarkable evolution, in the last decades of his life, into a fully realized modern-day Christian mystic.In the first four decades of his life as a Trappist monk, Thomas Keating created a comprehensive, unified psychospiritual pathway leading from healing to holiness and from contemporary psychological wellness to classic mystical sanctity and beatitude. As one of the key innovators of the meditative practice of Centering Prayer, he fashioned a powerful on-ramp to the Christian contemplative tradition. Yet, as beloved author and Keating disciple Cynthia Bourgeault shows, that was not the end of Keating’s story—his evolution as a spiritual thinker and mystic continued in ways few have explored in depth. In this unique blend of biography, personal experience, and close reading of his late works, Bourgeault illuminates Keating’s remarkable spiritual development from the late 1980s until his death in 2018. She explores: Keating’s increasing engagement with nondual spiritual practice His contributions to interspiritual dialogue The evolution of his early teaching on the movement from “false self” to “true self,” to that from “true self” to “no self” His final “dark night of the spirit” and passage through death New evidence that he never left Christianity but carried it with him to new places These profound final stages of Keating’s spiritual journey demonstrate how readers might find their own way as modern mystics, fundamentally at home and at peace in the universe.

Srdce kontemplativní modlitby - Cynthia Bourgeault
Mystické křesťanství. Náročný, avšak neuvěřitelně hluboký text, jehož každé slovo, je-li správně pochopeno, míří k cíli, který je skryt přímo v nás.Cynthia Bourgeault, autorka bestsellerů The Wisdom Jesus a The Meaning of Mary Magdalene, se v této knize vrací ke svému nejoblíbenějšímu tématu: k neduálnímu vědomí a jeho esenciálnímu vztahu ke křesťanské tradici.Nedualita a křesťanství – cože? Nedualita neboli vnímání stavu, v němž není rozdílu mezi já, ty a Bohem, je zkušenost, o níž hovoří křesťanští mystici už celá staletí.Mezi velkým počtem knih o kontemplativní modlitbě je kniha Cynthie Bourgeault naprosto výjimečná: míří do mnohem větší hloubky, než bylo doposud obvyklé, a prezentuje kontemplativní modlitbu jako cestu k neduálnímu vědomí. Vstupuje proto na teoreticky i teologicky náročnější terén, než s jakým pracují jiné knihy pojednávající o kontemplativní modlitbě (včetně jejího vlastního předchozího titulu Centering Prayer and Inner Awakening). Ve svých tvrzeních se opírá o Bibli, o učení starých církevních otců a zejména o křesťanskou kontemplativní tradici. Ve fascinující třetí části knihy analyzuje klasické dílo středověké křesťanské mystiky, Oblak nevědění, který se, jako většina mystických textů, v konečném důsledku otevírá jen tomu, kdo se nachází na stejné duchovní úrovni, ze které byl napsán.Při kontemplativní modlitbě, během oněch nanosekundových přestávek v proudu vašich myšlenek, odpočíváte v řece „ryzího uvědomění“, jež zaplavuje celou vaši bytost jako podzimní déšť po dlouhém období sucha. Později, až bude vaše praxe stabilnější a hluboko do vašeho srdce se otiskne poznání, že jediný způsob, jak spočinout v tomto uvědomění, je nechat odejít vše, na čem lpíte, začnete kousek po kousku objevovat, že tento nekonečně rozlehlý vnitřní prostor není „místo, kam odcházíte“, nýbrž „místo, odkud přicházíte“. A toto místo se stane novým domovem vašeho nejhlubšího pocitu jáství.

The Meaning of Mary Magdalene - Cynthia Bourgeault
The author of The Wisdom Jesus takes readers on a journey to discover the real Mary Magdalene—and finds a powerful, ancient model for 21st-century spirituality Mary Magdalene is one of the most influential symbols in the history of Christianity—yet, if you look in the Bible, you’ll find only a handful of verses that speak of her. How did she become such a compelling saint in the face of such paltry evidence? In her effort to answer that question, Cynthia Bourgeault examines the Bible, church tradition, art, legend, and newly discovered texts to see what’s there. She then applies her own reasoning and intuition, informed by the wisdom of the ages-old Christian contemplative tradition. What emerges is a radical view of Mary Magdalene as Jesus’s most important disciple, the one he considered to understand his teaching best. That teaching was characterized by a nondualistic approach to the world and by a deep understanding of the value of the feminine. Cynthia shows how an understanding of Mary Magdalene can revitalize contemporary Christianity, how Christians and others can, through her, find their way to Jesus’s original teachings and apply them to their modern lives.

Moudrost Ježíše - Cynthia Bourgeault
Království nebeské je Ježíšovou metaforou neduálního vědomí; není to místo, ke kterému jdete, ale místo, odkud přicházíte. Je ve vás - to znamená zde a nyní; nepřijde někdy později - je to subtilní kvalita zkušenosti, jež je vám přístupná přímo v tomto momentu. Neumřete do ní; probudíte se do ní. Pokud odložíte stranou to, co si myslíte, že víte o Ježíši, a přistoupíte k evangeliím jako byste je četli poprvé, stane se něco pozoruhodného: Ježíš z nich vystoupí jako učitel transformace vědomí. Cynthia Bourgeaultová je mistrovským průvodcem k Ježíšově vizi a k tradičním kontemplativním praktikám, díky nimž sami pocítíte srdce Ježíšova učení. Ježíš, živoucí mistr, je skutečný, je naživu, a důvěrným a pulzujícím způsobem vás v této chvíli a po všechny časy drží v náruči. Ve skutečnosti je více přítomný a více skutečný než váš vlastní dech a tlukot vašeho srdce. Ovšem abyste tuto přítomnost doopravdy poznali, je potřeba, abyste se posunuli na jinou vlnovou délku: z vašeho běžného binárního operačního systému s jeho typickým "buď/a nebo" musíte přeladit na živý přenos - na frekvenci neduálního vědění srdce: jen to vás spojí s Ježíšem.

Oddbody - Rose Keating
''Our tender, prickling, ungainly human condition beautifully shimmers from these stories'' DBC PIERRE, Winner of the Booker PrizeOddbody is a collection of ten bold and unsettling short stories that confront themes of desire, fear and shame, each one asking how far the bounds of the human form can be pushed, stretched - and subverted. A woman finds herself navigating a co-dependent relationship with a ghost. A waitress gives birth to an egg during her breakfast shift. A doctor puts his patient on a cleanse to ''purify'' her mind, body and soul.Through playful but provocative prose, Rose Keating traverses a realm both dreamlike and nightmarish, exposing - to the bone - the absurdities and horrors of the feminine experience. Oddbody prods a finger at societal norms, gleefully turns familiar tropes on their head and announces Keating as an audacious new voice in Irish fiction.

Arthur Koestler trpěl Parkinsonovou nemocí a leukémií. Cynthia, jeho třetí žena, bývalá sekretářka, se těšila naprostému zdraví, a poté co svému muži věnovala celý svůj aktivní život, obětovala se mu i ve smrti. Jejich rodinný přítel Harold Harris našel mezi písemnostmi na Koestlerově pracovním stole rukopis třetího svazku Arthurovy autobiografie. Harris byl vykonavatelem poslední vůle a rozhodl se toto dílo, které vytvořili střídavě oba manželé, připravit k vydání. Svazek pokrývá velkou část jejich společného života a odhaluje jejich výjimečný vzájemný vztah a také jejich společnou smrt.

In Italy: Venice, Rome and Beyond - Cynthia Zarin
From acclaimed poet and New Yorker writer Cynthia Zarin comes a deeply personal meditation on how love and loss shape places and spaces, all through the lens of four Italian spaces. Here we encounter a writer deeply engaged with narrative in situ – a traveller moving through beloved streets, sometimes accompanied, sometimes solo. With her we see anew the Venice Biennale, the Lagoon and San Michele, the island of the dead; the Piazza di Spagna, the Tiber, the view from the Gianicolo; the pigeons at San Marco and the parrots in the Doria Pamphili. Zarin’s attention to the smallest details, the loveliest gesture, brings Venice, Rome, Assisi and Santa Maria Maggiore vividly to life for the reader.
