The Franciscan friar served as the principle Christian presence--others represented Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism--to speak on the search for God in contemplation, which leads to action that benefits humanity. His role as the founding director of the Center for Action and Contemplation made him a fitting and powerful speaker on the subject.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eSilent Compassion: Finding God in Contemplation\u003c\/i\u003e, Rohr focuses on finding God in the depths of silence, and shares that the divine silence is more than the absence of noise. That silence has a life of its own, in which we are invited into its living presence, wholeness of being, and peace it brings. This silence can absorb paradoxes, contradictions, and the challenges of life, he says, connecting us with the great chain of being. Rohr adds that while different faiths use different languages and different words, all major religions have come at the mystery of God as a dynamic flow--God as communion, God as relationships. Silence then becomes that common place for all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book will inspire you and show that the peace of contemplation is not something just for monks, mystics, and those divorced from the worries of the world, but rather for all people who can quiet their own mind to listen in the silence.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe audio edition of this book can be downloaded via Audible.\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49554368069905,"sku":"GOR007331519","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49617568563473,"sku":"CIN1616367571G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50136225284369,"sku":"CIN1616367571VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53007880814865,"sku":"GOR010693639","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53148750283025,"sku":"GOR009434571","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1616367571.jpg?v=1750863272"},{"product_id":"yes-and-book-r-rohr-9781616366445","title":"Yes, and...","description":"This perennial book features daily meditations, each written by Rohr and adapted or excerpted from his many written and recorded works. The meditations are arranged around seven themes: \u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMethodology: Scripture as validated by experience, and experience as validated by tradition, are good scales for one's spiritual worldview\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFoundation: If God is Trinity and Jesus is the face of God, then it is a benevolent universe. God is not someone to be afraid of, but is the Ground of Being and on our side.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrame: There is only one Reality. Any distinction between natural and supernatural, sacred and profane is a bogus one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEcumenical: Everything belongs and no one needs to be scapegoated or excluded. Evil and illusion only need to be named and exposed truthfully, and they die in exposure to the light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransformation: The separate self is the problem, whereas most religion and most people make the shadow self the problem. This leads to denial, pretending, and projecting instead of real transformation into the Divine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess: The path of descent is the path of transformation. Darkness, failure, relapse, death, and woundedness are our primary teachers, rather than ideas or doctrines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoal: Reality is paradoxical and complementary. Non-dual thinking is the highest level of consciousness. Divine union, not private perfection, is the goal of all religion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003ci\u003eYes, and.\u003c\/i\u003eis an excellent daily prayer resource for fans of Richard Rohr's work, and those who are looking for an alternate way to live out their faith--a way centered in the open-minded search for spiritual relevance of a transforming nature.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49559882891537,"sku":"GOR005176478","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49685428044049,"sku":"CIN1616366443VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49797202805009,"sku":"CIN1616366443G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50974095278353,"sku":"GOR010381675","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52693452062993,"sku":"GOR008869641","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1616366443.jpg?v=1751119562"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-de\/collections\/autor-buecher-von-r-rohr.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
