A new edition of this contemporary spirtitual classic in which the
ancient and gentle wisdom of the Rule of St Benedict is explored in
realtion to the demands of modern living and the importance of
balance between prayer, work and study.
Around the year 500 St Benedict wrote a short guide for a small
community who wanted to live together the balanced life of body,
mind and spirit. The Rule of St Benedict became not only the
foundational guide for monastic life in the West, but remains a
potent spiritual resource that speaks authentically to countless
individuals today. Fr Laurence Freeman OSB has described the text
as the most important document for Christian living after the
Bible. In this reflective commentary, Esther de Waal recognises the
profoundly scriptural emphasis of St Benedict's writings. She shows
how his Rule may be read personally and prayerfully by people such
as herself seeking practical encouragement and support in their
following of Christ.
