Ajouter au panierPaper Back. Etat : New. Mount Sinai, Mount Tabor, Christ in the Desert Abbey, Ghost Ranch -- a room in a nursing home with a dying mother: Belden Lane learns that all these are landscapes that teach our hearts how to let go of the images and desires we grasp so tightly, in order that we might be grasped by the limitless love of God. Lane teaches us by drawing us into his own discovery of the connections between the axioms of classical monastic spirituality and the deserts that are so close to each of us, that we can allow to instruct or destroy us. In chapters that alternate between discursive sections and intimate memoir, Lane is able to create a compelling testimony to the relevance of the marrow of Christian spirituality -- the tradition that flows from the Desert Fathers, the Cappadocians, Climacus, Dionysius and the Philokalia on the one hand, Benedict, the Cloud, Eckhart and John of the Cross on the other. ''Asceticism'' and ''apophasis'' become not just arid catchwords, but disturbingly immediate experiences of death and rebirth, inescapable realities prerequisite for becoming fully human, fully loving: ''The desert has to lead us, at last, from aloneness with God (in a moment of great and silent emptiness) to community with others.The apophatic moment, if genuine, must ever result in a recommitment to speech and engagement, a renewal of kataphatic energy. Desert attentiveness and desert indifference lead necessarily to desert love.''.
