"Drawing on his experience as an interreligious monk and mystic, Brother Wayne Teasdale reveals in The Mystic Heart what he calls interspirituality, a genuine and comprehensive spirituality that draws on the mystical core of the world's great religious traditions. After years within the Catholic lay monastic community, Teasdale found himself drawn to the visionary path of Father Bede Griffiths, who initiated him in the way of sannyasa, the life of renunciation and dedication to the quest for God."--BOOK JACKET. "As a sannyasi, Teasdale combines his profound Christian faith with an intimate understanding of other religions' ancient traditions. From this spiritual vantage, The Mystic Heart shows that what so often forms the basis for conflict can really be a meeting place of understanding."--BOOK JACKET. "Through scholarship, stories, and personal practice, Teasdale demonstrates that the final goal of authentic spirituality is realizing our true nature as mystics."--BOOK JACKET.
