Testimonials

It is fascinating, enriching and interesting to have someone from outside the Christian tradition help us to be in touch with the riches of our own heritage. The breadth of this man's understanding of Christian spirituality is evidenced by the insightful use he makes of people like Augustine, Julian of Norwich, Teresa of Avila, Tauler, Catherine of Genoa, and Mechthild of Magdeburg.

"The reflections on The Imitation of Christ passages are rich with Easwaran's familiarity with the writings of many other mystics and his own corroborating experiences. The simplicity, sincerity and compassion so clear in these reflections will convince the wavering to take up Easwaran's challenge."
