Description

A companion to Anthony De Mello’s all-time bestselling work of inspiration, Awareness.

Anthony De Mello was one of the most important spiritual writers of the 20th century. Since his death in 1987, his stature has only increased. His books, including Song of the Bird, Sadhana, and the international bestselling Awareness are considered by many to be some of the most influential spiritual teachings of the last 50 years.
 
Now, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his passing, Image Books is proud to present what may very well prove to be the last published work of this beloved spiritual teacher. Based on a lecture given just months before his death, Rediscovering Life invites us to unlock the deeper meaning of our lives. By becoming aware of the circuitous and habitual nature of our limiting thoughts, we can find simple solutions that will release us from feelings of isolation, anger, sadness and depression. In short, De Mello offers us a new way to look at the world and God that will transform our lives.
 
Rediscovering Life is a timeless and compassionate book that will awaken you to the beauty of human experience and increase your ability to see God in all things.

    Do you feel lonely unless you're with friends? If your friend doesn't call or text as frequently as you, do you feel "rejected" or disheartened or even a bit angry that they don't give to you as much as you give to them? Would you like to feel at peace no matter what your friends think of you, how often they contact you or even when they completely pull away? Then read on! This work by DeMello offers a way of thinking and living that can bring true liberation and freedom. Freedom from the dependency on others for your happiness or fulfillment. How wonderful would it feel to live in peace no matter what others say or what they think about you? Living in joy and drawing happiness from within is the only way to be truly free from the potential heartache, anxiety, and "loneliness" that result from depending on others to complete you. I highly encourage readers to savor the messages shared throughout this insightful work. Let go and be open to a new way of thinking and seeing things, challenge yourself go beyond "the norm", and you just might find a peace and fulfillment in life that surpasses your wildest dreams.
  • Well worth the read!

    Only De Mello can tell it honestly & he gets right to it. So simple yet elusive is the truth he offers. Time to read the book again, again, and again.
