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 ...

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 ...

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.

Living With Evil - Cynthia Owen

Cynthia Owen grew up in Ireland, went to the local convent school, said her prayers and took her first communion with all the other girls in her class. But behind the façade of respectability lurked a hideous reality.Cynthia was just eight years old when she was sexually abused by her father amongst others. Shortly before her eleventh birthday she was made pregnant and, minutes after giving birth to the baby, Cynthia watched in horror as her own mother murdered the tiny infant, named Noleen, by repeatedly stabbing her with a knitting needle. Cynthia''s mother then wrapped the baby girl in a plastic bag, dumped her in an alleyway and made her daughter go back to school and pretend nothing had ever happened.After enduring many more years of rape and violence, Cynthia came forward and reported her abuse and Noleen''s death.Finally, in 2007, after a fifteen-year legal fight to have her baby girl formally identified, the jury at the ''Dun Laoghaire Baby'' inquest declared that the baby found dead in an alleyway thirty-four years previously was Noleen Murphy, the daughter of Cynthia Owen.Cynthia''s is a horrific story of brutality and loss, but ultimately, it is an account of love, immense bravery ...

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.

Twelve Feminist Lessons of War - Cynthia Enloe

'Cynthia Enloe is a force to be reckoned with and utterly tireless. Her work has long spanned intersectional analyses of gender, race and class...she repeatedly questions which things society pays attention to and which we consider insignificant. She is an inspiration.' Laura Bates'A triumph' Chatham HouseTwelve Feminist Lessons of War draws on sharp insights of women as survivors, activists and scholars from Ukraine to Sudan and Myanmar to show how diverse women's experiences of war must be taken seriously if we are to prevent and shorten wars and make gender justice central to recovering from wars.Women's wars are not men's wars. Wartime shapes the gendered politics of marriage, prostitution, journalism, economics, childcare, domestic violence and rape. Enloe's razor-sharp analysis highlights how understanding this can prevent wars and even end them.With fresh, fierce and vital thinking, she shows that by paying more attention to the wounded and the women who care for them, we will be more realistic about the long 'post-war'; and that by listening to feminists on the ground, in Ukraine and elsewhere, we will better understand what is happening to our world.Cynthia is one of only 100 women named on the Gender Justice Wall in The Hague.

No Sweet Without Brine - Cynthia Manick

Voted one of the Best Books of 2023 by the New York Public Library, Cynthia ManickÂ’s poetry collection personifies love of self and culture through fresh observations and bitter truths voiced with breathtaking lyricism.No Sweet Without Brine is both a soulful and celebratory collection that summons sticky sweet memories with an acrid aftertaste of deep thought. Satisfying moments are captured in odes to Idris ElbaÂ’s dulcet tones on a meditation app and the satisfaction of half-priced EntenmannÂ’s poundcake; in childlike observations of parental Black love, the coveted female form on Jet Magazine covers, and the desire for Zamunda to be a real place full of Black joy. The sour taps into an analysis of reclusiveness, silencing catcalls from men on the street, and detailed recipes and advice to the Black girls forced to endow themselves with armor against the world.Cynthia ManickÂ’s latest is a playlist of everyday life, introverted thoughts, familial bonds, and social commentary. In piercing language, she traces the circle of life for a narrator who dares to exist between youthful remembrances and adulthood realities. Each poem in No Sweet Without Brine is a reminder that a hint of sorrow makes the celebration and recognition of the glory ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Letters of Intent - Cynthia Ozick

''What we ought to do, as writers, is seize freedom now, immediately, by recognizing that we already have it.''Cynthia Ozick, one of ''the greatest living American writers'', has, over a lifetime of observation, produced some of the sharpest and most influential works of criticism in contemporary Anglo-American writing. Described as the ''Emily Dickinson of the Bronx'' and ''one of the most accomplished and graceful literary stylists of her time'', her acclaimed works span topics from Henry James to Helen Keller, and from Christian Heroism to lovesickness. The essays selected here come from the six volumes Ozick published in the USA over the last thirty-three years. Collected by David Miller, Ozick''s friend and agent, they represent the diversity, curiosity, originality, and crackling wit of her works. A volume to treasure, to re-read and to relish, this is Cynthia Ozick, ''the Athena of America''s literary pantheon'', at her very best.

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.
