Summary

Thomas Merton, toward the end of his life, warned of a "pervasive form of contemporary violence" that is unique to our times: overwork and overactivity. In his work as a minister and caregiver, Wayne Muller observed the effects of this violence on our communities, our families, and our people. He responds to this escalating "war on our spirits" in this audio guide, and immerses listeners in the sacred tradition of the shabbat - the day of rest - a tradition that is all but forgotten in an age where consumption, speed, and productivity have become the most valued human commodities. He offers practices and exercises that reflect the sabbath as recognized in Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism. Through his way of nourishment and repose, Muller teaches, we welcome insights and blessings and arise only with stillness and time.

Beauty in it's purest form

This is a most beautiful book in every sense. Nourishment for the heart and soul spoken with a soft soothing gentle voice. Thank you for sharing Wayne Muller 🙏

Opportunity missed by confusion

Some beautiful sections of peaceful good advice. Writers confusion over ‘The Way’ spoils the book and can send seekers down blind alleys!
From joy to disappointment as I read. ( read three times to ensure considered view).

Very disappointing

This book has nothing to do with Shabbat or Jews or Judaism - it is a Christian preaching in disguise . Very disappointed in wasting energy to even listen to as much as I did.
