In this series of informal foretells close students, Eknath Easwaran comments on short extracts from the Imitation of Christ by Thomas à Kempis, a vintage fifteenth-century Christian content material. Recognizing that these gems of spiritual counselling are portrayed in difficult, middle ages language, Easwaran requires care to put them in a modern day context. He shows how this great content material contains much sound, sensitive psychology that can guide us in making smart choices today. Easwaran illustrates his insights with anecdotes, analogies, and gentle laughter, so you'll hear the audience laughing with him, particularly in the second half of the discussions. But throughout his commentary he addresses profound topics - how to return kindness for unkindness at home and at the job, how to live in tranquility with ourselves and with others, how to triumph over our concern with death. Easwaran strains the value of spiritual routines, such as meditation and repetition of the mantram (also known as the mantra or prayer expression), in turning against selfish desires to find god, the father, the source of all goodness within us. Easwaran also pulls on other saints, sages, and scriptures from the world's great practices - so whatever your faith, philosophy, or lifestyle, if you are enthusiastic about following the spiritual path you can find both sensible advice and profound creativity here. Eknath Easwaran (1910-1999) is respected across the world as a professor of meditation and an traditional guide to common wisdom. More than 1.4 million copies of his books are in print across the world, including Discovering with the Eyes of Love, his commentary on the Imitation of Christ. In 1961 he founded the Blue Mountain Centre of Meditation, which persists his work today. Easwaran lived what he taught, giving him long lasting appeal as a professor of deep insight and warmth.
