Description

This revised and redesigned edition of Thomas Merton's last book explores contemplation/meditation in depth, drawing on both Eastern and Western traditions. In this comprehensive presentation, Merton bridges his early work on Catholic monasticism with his later writing on Eastern meditation and spirituality.

Originally published as a series of articles, this book was revised by Merton shortly before his death. The result is a valuable contribution to the understanding of contemplation, one that draws on the best of Western and Eastern traditions.

Merton's own struggles with the book are evident in its completion just before his passing. Now available in paperback, this edition showcases the author's major work on contemplation as a significant addition to his literary legacy.
