Hardback. Condition: Good. The tranquility of order is a dynamic tranquility, the stillness of a flame burning in perfect calm, of a wheel spinning so fast that it seems to stand still. Silence in this sense is not only a quality of the environment, but primarily an attitude, an attitude of listening. . Let us give to one another that gift of silence, so that we can listen together and listen to one another. Only in this silence will we be able to hear that gentle breath of peace, that music to which the spheres dance, that universal harmony to which we, too, hope to dance. Austrian-born Benedictine monk David Steindl-Rast is one of the most influential and beloved spiritual teachers of our time. For decades, Brother David has divided his time between periods of monastic life at the Mount Saviour Monastery in New York and extensive lecture tours on five continents. He has brought spiritual depth into the lives of countless people, whom he touches through his lectures, his workshops and his writings. Brother David was one of the first Roman Catholics to participate in Buddhist-Christian dialogue, studying under Zen teachers and building bridges between religious traditions. His newest book, The Way of Silence, draws heavily on Buddhist teachings to cultivate the practice of deep listening: turning away from noise and distraction, paying attention, and embracing quiet. The Way of Silence embraces paradox: absence versus presence in silence. Dynamic tranquility. The all-oneness of aloneness. Humbly, trusting in God, you'll practice emptying your mind in order to receive wisdom, insight, and understanding. You'll learn to listen deeply, with a trusting heart--and you'll joyously discover a new, interior freedom that will make you feel more vibrant, and more fully alive.The audio edition of this book can be downloaded via Audible.…

Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. As new condition dark gray boards/dark green spine/gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Editor's Preface; Afterword: Conclusions About a Beginning by David Steindl-Rast, OSB; Introduction to Saint Benedict's Rule by Mary Margaret Funk, OSB; and Saint Benedict's Rule translated by Patrick Barry, OSB, Abbot of Ampleforth Abbey. "Benedict's Dharma combines the thrill of watching a dazzling performance with the secret pleasure of eavesdropping on a private conversation. In commenting on the Rule of Saint Benedct, the contributors are not trying to say anything new or startling, yet, for that very reason, they do. I am deeply grateful for this book." - Brother David Steindl-Rast, OSB "Four prominent Buddhists discuss Saint Benedict's Rule and the monastic tradition: Norman Fischer; Joseph Goldstein; Judith Simmer-Brown; and Yifa." - from the rear outer jacket "Saint Benedict's Rule is a set of guidelines that has governed Christian monastic life since the sixth century. Those who live according to the Rule, which regulates daily life in a monastery, regard it as the bedrock of their lives and feel great affection for its writer, a monk whose humility and extraordinary insight into human nature are legendary. The Rule has fascinated laypeople and monastics alike, including Buddhist monks and nuns who are intrigued by the similarities between their traditions and those of their Christian counterparts. Now, four prominent Buddhist scholars, Norman Fischer, a Zen priest and founder of the Everyday Zen Foundation; Joseph Goldstein, co-founder of the Insight Meditation Society; Judith Simmer-Brown, professor and chair of the Buddhist Studies Program at Naropa University; and Yifa, a nun at Fo Guang Shan Monastery in Taiwan and faculty members at National Sun Yat-Sen University, have turned their attention to this seminal text. The fruit of their discussion is Benedict's Dharma. Through personal anecdotes, lively debate, and thoughtful comparison, they reveal how the wisdom of each monastic tradition can revitalize the other, and how their own spiritual practices have been enriched through familiarity with the Rule. Their insights will appeal not only to Buddhists and Christians, but to anyone interested in the ancient discipline of monasticism and what it might have to offer a materially glutted and spiritually famished culture. [The book] also includes a modern translation of the Rule of Saint Benedict by Patrick Barry, OSB, the former abbot of Ampleforth. This very readable translation will serve as a valuable reference and make the Rule come alive for the contemporary reader." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.…
