Bøger af Anthony De Mello

Anthony De Mello er en af de sjældne kapaciteter, der får os til at åbne øjnene. Han påpeger klarsynet og præcist tilværelsens absurditeter og udstiller det sindsyge ræs, de fleste af os er en del af og tager for givet. Ifølge De Mello er der ingen, der kan vise os, hvordan vi skal leve, for det vil blot være en ny teknik, en ny programmering, men vi kan lære at iagttage os selv og på den måde bringe os ud af illusionernes fængsel, se klarere, se verden som den smukke symfoni, den altid har været.

Profound love is at the heart of this warm, compassionate collection of meditations by spiritual master Anthony de Mello -- a last inspiring gift to the countless readers whose lives he touched.

Release your true inner self, shed society's expectations and programming, and regain your equilibrium with A Year with Anthony De Mello. This week-by-week workbook is filled with fifty-two passages and stories of De Mello's echoing wisdom, inspiring quotes from a variety of influential world-famous people, and thought-provoking journal prompts.We have all been programmed to seek happiness outside of ourselves-seized through great effort from an unpredictable world-and then to become upset and self-condemning when our effort fails to realize its promise of fulfillment, which it always fails to do. This is not to say that success isn't a reasonable pursuit, but it cannot give us happiness. Nothing of the world can. Why? Because we have it already. The happiness, peace, and love that defines fulfillment are already yours, encoded in your spiritual DNA. They are not earned or acquired. They live in you as you to be expressed through you. The only effort needed is really no effort at all; it's a matter of coming home to yourself. A Year with Anthony De Mello is a week-by-week workshop of fifty-two passages from De Mello, each followed by a favorite parable or koan Anthony admired to illuminate the passage, and two simple but engaging exercises to actualize the week's teaching. There are also blank pages for journaling about your insights during the week.
