Description: A liberating guide to inner healing, this book challenges the myth that enduring personal change can be achieved through any self-improvement program. Instead, The Silence of Unknowing fosters personal transcendence at the most meaningful spiritual level, through self-awareness & self-understanding. Mystics of all religions have always known that the key to spiritual life is self-knowledge, & now seekers of Christian & other faith traditions will find a new ally & teacher in Terence Grant. In this engaging & accessible guide for daily living that draws its strength from both Zen & Christian mysticism, Grant illuminates the relevance of spiritual concepts often avoided as to abstract. Examples: Original sin is presented as the desire to be more, better, or different than one is; Repentance is defined as a turning toward God, not a mortifying sense of guilt. Grant presents a wise & insightful blend of biblical exegesis, wry fables, & humorous anecdotes based on his popular meditations that have been enthusiastically received by thousands of listeners in parishes & retreat centers across the nation.
