Sabino Chialà: Silence and Speaking Freely, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Dr awing wisdom from the biblical and monastic traditions, Sabino Chialà reflects on the role of silence as a spiritual dimension.

The monastic life that has unfolded at Monastery of Bose, Italy, is the fruit of deep engagement with the early monastic tradition while remaining in dialogue with modern time and culture. It is from this setting that two insightful texts on an integrated spirituality of communication emerged. In Silence and Speaking Freely, Br. Sabino Chialà combines the wisdom of these texts to form a complementary diptych on the dynamics of human and spiritual maturity. Together, they teach us how to listen, speak with truth, and to live--attentively, compassionately, and with integrity.

Drawing from the treasure of wisdom found in the biblical and monastic traditions of the desert fathers, Chialà reflects on the image of the silent word and the role of silence as a spiritual dimension. Silence and Speaking Freely reveals the unity of this monk's vision of the human person to live between silence and speech--to be, like Christ himself, both listener and speaker, and receiver and giver of the Word.
