Description

An Ocean of Light is a profound exploration of contemplative life, offering guidance for those who have already established a practice of inner silence. Martin Laird draws on a diverse range of writers to illuminate the transformative power of contemplation, revealing how it can lift the soul and free us from confusion and separation. With characteristic lyricism and gentleness, Laird invites readers to embark on a new journey of self-discovery and spiritual growth.

Through his insightful analysis, Laird addresses the challenges of contemplative life, including the need to make ourselves the focus of our own practice, dealing with old pain, and transforming isolation into a sense of solidarity with others. By exploring the intersection of ancient practice and contemporary language, Laird provides a unique and accessible voice for those seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world.
