D'ors Pablo (448 results)

Paperback. Condition: Good. Existential and curiously hypnotic, Pablo d'Ors evokes the sharp stylized prose of Bolano, Bernhard, and DeLillo in this strange tale of one man's repeated forays into the desert, and the ultimate silence it contains. "Thanks to the back cover of a book I knew that there lived in Brno a man who had dedicated a good portion of his life to traveling through many of the world's deserts." So begins Pavel's story, as a series of mysterious circumstances lead him to change the course of his life. On his repeated trips to the Sahara, first as part of an enigmatic organization called Friends of the Desert and later on his own, Pavel explores the drifting sands, and, ultimately, something approaching infinity. Nothing is as it seems. As the unknowns increase, each encounter presents a new mirror for Pavel's own expanding consciousness. Innumerable artists, thinkers, and mystics have paid their respects to the void. With refinement and care, Friend of the Desert inserts itself to that tradition. In the wake of Hesse's famous Siddhartha, Bolano's By Night in Chile, and Don DeLillo's The Names, Pablo d'Ors approaches the depths and casually settles in. Friend of the Desert is a rare gift for seekers of the absolute.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Basta un ano de meditacion perseverante, o incluso medio, para percatarse de que se puede vivir de otra forma. La meditacion agrieta la estructura de nuestra personalidad hasta que, de tanto meditar, la grieta se ensancha y la vieja personalidad se rompe y, como una flor, comienza a nacer una nueva. Meditar es asistir a este fascinante y tremendo proceso de muerte y renacimiento. Poco mas de un centenar de paginas de inaudita intensidad que nos ayudan a comprender la importancia de esa humilde pero profunda virtud que es la atencion. Un libro tan pequeno como exquisito que recoge una obstinada busqueda de si mismo. Tras conocer a Franz Jalics -su maestro- y en respuesta a los miles de lectores que le escribieron para comentarle y agradecerle su Biografia del silencio, Pablo d'Ors funda en 2014 la asociacion Amigos del Desierto, cuyo proposito es profundizar y promover la practica contemplativa. A Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation shares his struggles as a beginning meditator and the revelation that the silence of meditation offers an intense engagement with the world's true nature.

Condition: Very Good. : En 'Contra la juventud', Pablo d'Ors nos presenta a Eugen Salmann, un joven con aspiraciones literarias que decide mudarse a Praga, la ciudad de Kafka y Kundera, con la esperanza de impulsar su carrera. Sin embargo, en lugar de escribir, se encuentra viviendo una novela kafkiana, donde las ficciones se vuelven peligrosamente reales. En medio de su sufrimiento, Eugen se ve envuelto en relaciones con mujeres maduras y persigue a jóvenes, mientras conoce a una comunidad peculiar y a una bibliotecaria que le ayuda a comprender la vida. D'Ors reflexiona sobre la juventud como una etapa de ensayos y errores, donde los ideales son desmesurados y la inexperiencia causa devastación. Con ironía y compasión, el autor nos invita a despertar y cuestionar nuestra propia juventud.
