The dedicated religious life of monks and nuns has a fascination
for many of us-at a distance. We live in the world we have, and
it's hard to figure out how to do it in a God-filled way. "The
World is Our Cloister" is about the new religious life; a life to
which Protestant, Catholic, Hindu or those with no label can
relate. It is a guide to living the devotional life, not behind the
walls of a monastery, but in the world. It's about engagement in
the world as well as withdrawal, the balance between a life of
action and one of contemplation; how to be in the world but not of
it. It is also a guide to the mystical experience at the heart of
all religion. Beyond the barriers of belief and practice lies the
stark and simple reality of relating to God: "the practice of the
presence of God".
