Description:

Enjoy one of the greatest recorded works by Thomas Merton, the twentieth century’s greatest spiritual writer. In the summer of 1967, religious communities around the world were experiencing a time of renewal and reflection. As monasteries sought to adopt practices prescribed by the Second Vatican Council, Pope Paul VI asked two Cistercian monks to compose a message about the contemplative life. Those monks in turn sought the contributions of a fellow monk and master of contemplation—Thomas Merton. The resulting recording encapsulates the spiritual wisdom of a humble monk who changed the world. This digitally remastered recording is part of Thomas Merton’s spoken word legacy and is one in a series of carefully curated and remastered archival recordings of Thomas Merton—available exclusively from Now You Know Media. Allow the voice of Thomas Merton to guide you along your spiritual journey. Duration - 21h 52m. Author - Thomas Merton. Narrator - Thomas Merton. Published Date - Tuesday, 30 January 2024.
