Jesus the Teacher Within

Jesus the Teacher Within

Laurence Freeman, OSB

(From the forward by the Dalai Lama)
"Father Laurence has written this book, Jesus: The Teacher Within, in full Christian faith, explaining from his own experience how relating to Jesus Christ and his teaching, combined with meditation, can illuminate the spiritual life...

I feel sure that readers of this book, especially those who seek personal transformation and inner peace, will find much to ponder and apply here in their own daily practice."

Spiritual seekers looking for a comprehensive and in-depth study of Jesus, one that leads to an expansion of consciousness, will want to read this book. It inspires, informs and addresses the human heart at the depth of its longing. By exploring the question posed by Jesus: "And you, who do you say I am?" (MT 16:15) Freeman takes the reader on a psychological and spiritual journey into their own true nature. Like one sitting at the loom of experience Freeman weaves together insights from other spiritual traditions, as well as references from literature and his own life, that give the reader a fresh and new understanding of the person of Jesus. The book is grounded in solid Christian theology yet anticipates the reader of the 21st century. It is a book for those who are spiritually hungry and for those who want to move beyond spiritual and intellectual patterns of belief that no longer fit or limit a deeper experience of faith.
