Teachings of the Christian Mystics by Andrew Harvey
The Christian mystics are the treasure of Western civilization--yet they remain little known among those of us who are potentially their spiritual heirs. Andrew Harvey's anthology confronts us with the mystics in their own words, to show us how well they serve, even now, as guides for the spiritual life--and to challenge our preconceived ideas about the path of Christianity. He has chosen selections that represent all eras of the Christian tradition, as well as the amazing range of people who have embodied it, people like Francis of Assisi, Meister Eckhart, Julian of Norwich, Teresa of Avila, Thomas Merton, Bede Griffiths, and many others.Andrew Harvey is a poet, writer, teacher, and mystic who has written a number of books, including A Trip in Ladakh and Return of the Mother. Harvey, a former fellow of All Souls College in Oxford and now a visiting professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies, has a devoted following among spiritual and mainstream literary audiences.
