Using the words of the great theologian, Karl Rahner, Sheldrake makes the case that the Christian of the future will be either a mystic or nothing at all. In our contemporary world, this judgment applies equally to other religions as well. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e After chapters on the meaning of \"mysticism\" and the connection between mysticism and beliefs, Sheldrake describes important dimensions of mystical writings, illustrated by a range of examples. These are \"Love and Desire,\" \"Knowing and Unknowing,\" \"Wonder and Beauty,\" \"Mysticism and Everyday Practice,\" and \"The Mystic as Radical Prophet.\" Finally, the book briefly explores why mysticism fascinates so many people in our modern times. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Philip Sheldrake\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0814685129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780814685129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Liturgical Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/26\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.43h x 5.43w x 0.71d","brand":"Philip Sheldrake","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44059841429759,"sku":"9780814685129","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8a47cef2-fed7-44aa-8fa7-73734eb6e41f.jpg?v=1685060632","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-world-transfigured-philip-sheldrake-9780814685129","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
