Experience de Dieu (L') (Spiritualites Grand Format)

by Raimon Panikkar

In this beautiful meditation, Panikkar charts the paradoxes and possibilities of our experience of God. Drawing on a wide range of sources, from the Bible and Western mystics to the Vedas and the Bhagavad Gita, he probes human language and silence, adoration and alienation, to find the root of all our experience in God and its special character in Christian encounter with Jesus.He concludes with reflections on the many places — such as love, joy, suffering, pardon, nature, silence, and even evil — where we meet God today.

this should be required reading for all. especially those who self-identify as "religious" or those that struggle with religiosity...

A book that centers itself on paradox drew me in closer still to the mystery.
