The heart of Anthony de Mello’s bestselling spiritual message is
awareness. Mixing Christian spirituality, Buddhist parables, Hindu
breathing exercises, and psychological insight, de Mello’s words of
hope come together in Awareness in a grand synthesis.
In short chapters
for reading in quiet moments at home or at the office, he cajoles and
challenges: We must leave this go-go-go world of illusion and become
aware. And this only happens, he insists, by becoming alive to the
needs and potential of others, whether at home or in the workplace.
Here, then, is a
masterful book of the spirit, challenging us to wake up in every
aspect of our lives.
