The Deepest Spiritual Life

the long version

At a time when interest in spirituality is at a new high, people are desperately seeking spiritual sustenance and solace. Many seek to fill their religious aspirations and ideals through personal practices; other participate in religious community. But, as Susan Quinn explores in this rich new work, the deepest spiritual life comes from the combination of communal and personal practices. Ms. Quinn describes the process of balancing personal practice with religious community through a magnifcent blend of her personal reflections, along with insights from 27 spiritual figures and lay persons representing Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Buddhist, New Thought, and Islamic traditions.
