"Every now and then there arises a prophet in our midst marked by a voice that is distinctly new and totally different than the familiar. The Jesuit scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was one such voice and Beatrice Bruteau, a disciple of Teilhard, is another. In this collection of essays written over a period of twenty years, Bruteau offers us a luminous vision of a new social order in an evolutionary world. This is a profound book, written by a scholar of wisdom. It is a book that can appeal to a wide variety of people-academics and nonacademics alike-because of its depth and breadth. [A]ll those who read The Grand Option will not only be lured by Bruteau's vision and insight but will return time and again to this book, for it is itself an evolution in thought." --Spiritual Life--Spiritual Life
Building on the foundations of Teilhard de Chardin, this dynamic work elegantly explores the ongoing challenges of the next leap in human development. "I know of scarcely anybody," Bede Griffiths has said, "who goes to the heart of reality as profoundly as Beatrice Bruteau does." Here Bruteau develops a Trinitarian anthropology with the potential for healing our conflict-ridden planet by transforming us from riven and conflicting individuals, into open, sharing persons of the New Creation. In transcendent freedom, a profound communion consciousness gives birth to global, wholistic community. Bruteau's integral vision is as compelling as it is concrete. In this work of philosophical, theological, and psychological anthropology, she presents a cogent spiritual praxis that possesses the power to initiate a psychic revolution. "A new way of seeing," Teilhard has exclaimed, "combined with a new way of acting - that is what we need." This is precisely what Beatrice Bruteau offers in The Grand Option.
