Instructions of the Spirit: 50 Poems & Intimations (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A collection of 50 poems and "intimations" on spiritual experience by a noted journalist and essayist in contemporary spirituality. This second edition of the original title includes 14 recent poems.

"It is not easy to translate the experiences of the spiritual path into everyday language. Alternately tender and rigorous, Miller's poems record the colors and textures of his journey with skill, subtlety, and compassion." J. Ruth Gendler, The Book of Qualities; Changing Light

"This book is one startling collection of colored laser beams, searing to the core of our universal griefs and longings, iconoclastic and incandescent. Miller traces each memory, perception, and sensation to its hard, irreducible spiritual root." Marc Polonsky, The Poetry Reader's Toolkit

"This intriguing collection of poems is also a record of the writer's long and winding spiritual journey. The book is an encapsulated meditation on illness, healing, forgiveness, and the earth, but the poet always returns to love as the root of all Being." Alison Luterman, The Largest Possible Life; In the Time of Great Fires

"These honest, probing poems, along with the prose discussions, point to the gap between our natural selves and who we imagine ourselves to be. And to how rewarding, and how crucial, the effort is to join
the two." Clive Matson, Let the Crazy Child Write!; Squish Boots
