The author takes you on a journey to far-reaching corners of the
world, where he drinks tea with loving Sudanese Muslims, prays in
ancient Coptic churches, and whirls with Sufi dervishes in the
desert. In seeking the mystical in extraordinary places, he
discovers that an intimate relationship with God can be found in
known religious practices. The key is not the practice itself, but
the role of the mind and the heart. With the right intention and
contemplative approach, the religious practice unveils an attentive
and loving God. The author draws upon Rumi and Hafez, in Islam, and
Saint Teresa of Avila and Thomas Merton, in Christianity, and many
others to discuss the fundamental principles for embracing the
Divine. By distilling the basic tenets and practices of Islam and
Christianity, he finds they both hold similar mystical treasures.
Learn new and ancient methods for meditation, prayer, chanting,
prayer beads and pilgrimages. Closely examine the Koran's
incredible poetry and beauty and gain insight into how it has
brought millions to God. Learn about lectio divina, the ancient
technique of listening to God's personal communication with you
through the Bible. The author provides step-by-step instructions
for you to begin to use these mystical tools. By the end of the
book, you'll have taken your own journey into the heart of both
Islam and Christianity and found Love.
