{"product_id":"the-sacred-ordinary-john-schelling-pollock-9780578546858","title":"The Sacred Ordinary: The Odyssey of a Ninety-One-Year-Old Contemplative","description":"From the Author: This is a book that's not about one thing, such as old stories, or spirituality, or how to think, or how to feel better. This is my life, ninety-one years of it. It is what I was and what I have become-my ancestral roots, the family I grew up with, the family I nourished, the places that nourished me; it is what I explored-how I became a contemplative, the music I heard, the visions I saw, what I dreamed, how I've lived as a woman during nine decades of this evolution of our culture. It is about dying-giving up embodied spirit-which, like art and music, is all at once wholly sensuous, physical, and spiritual. I have written this remembrance like music, a conversation of ideas, fragments, little flashes of illumination-juxtaposed, alluded to, reverberating, entangled, intertwining like counterpoint, always changing-heard in new context with richer meaning, transformed. It is a story-poem, using stories the way poets use words. It is about the way of the sacred ordinary. It is about how I loved. It is about how I love. Skip what you will. Don't agree with me. Go look for yourself. Live your own sacred ordinary. Remember. Remember who you are. - Urashan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Schelling Pollock, Urashan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 057854685X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780578546858\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Maris Stella Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 440\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.98d","brand":"John Schelling Pollock","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43991430037759,"sku":"9780578546858","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7d96f419-8cbe-487a-8cbb-e4b430059bd3.jpg?v=1683310246","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sacred-ordinary-john-schelling-pollock-9780578546858","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
