In "The Way of Simplicity" Esther de Waal reveals the riches of
the Cistercian (Trappist) tradition and its relevance for today's
world.
The book draws not only on such twelfth-century writers as
Bernard of Clairvaux and Aelred of Rievaulx, but also on Thomas
Merton and many contemporary Cistercians.
These Cistercian men and women wrote on matters of perennial
concern: the true self, growth, integration, friendship, the love
of God, and above al the life of prayer.
Anyone wishing to explore Cistercian spirituality will find this
book an illuminating and practical guide.
"Esther de Waal is one of today's most celebrated spiritual
writers. Seeking God, her classic book on the relevance of the Rule
of Saint Benedict, has opened up the riches of the monastic
tradition to readers throughout the world for almost twenty-five
years. Greatly in demand as a speaker and retreat leader, she lives
in Herefordshire, UK."
