Description
Poustinia: Encountering God in Silence, Solitude and Prayer The renowned modern spiritual classic! Catherine Doherty brings readers the profound traditions of Christian spirituality surrounding the Russian word poustinia, which means desert. Catherine combines her insights into the great spiritual traditions of the Russian Church with her very personal experience of life with Christ. How to create a hermitage in which you can taste the joy of Christian solitude, and meet God face to face in the midst of a godless world. Catherine emphasizes poustinia of the heart, an interiorized poustinia, a silent chamber carried always and everywhere in which to contemplate God within. Learn how our desert can be in the marketplace, in the midst of countless conferences, traffic jams, bus tripsor a hospital ward. Written by one who knows by experience, Poustinia brings consolation with its vision of a personal desert that can bloom in simple, profound prayer. - from Amzon
