Paschal Paradox: Reflections on a Life of Spiritual Revolution, (Paperback)

*Advance Praise &amp; Reviews* "It feels strange to so strongly recommend this book because I feel like I am almost recommending myself, if that is not too narcissistic to say! Although Diarmuid is genuinely much more a scholar and scientist than I am, we have come to so many of the same conclusions about the Gospel, church, religious life, spirituality, and meaning itself. Read and be fed by my Irish brother."--<strong>Fr. Richard Rohr, OFM, Center for Action and Contemplation<br></strong> <br> "This is an autobiography with a mystical twist. It is not a chronological outline from childhood through to old age. Instead, I am reflecting on those times that might be described as quantum leaps in which the extraordinary infiltrated the ordinary, and from there on the territory never looked the same again. And what I had gained from the new breakthrough involved a dying and letting go of former securities. Only with hindsight did the puzzling pattern begin to make sense." <p>"For me, it has always been a journey heavily influenced by faith. The Christian notion of dying and rising again, or, more accurately, being knocked down only to be raised up again, is a recurring theme throughout the story of my life. I describe not merely the 'ups-and-downs' of life but an evolving pattern--a paschal journey--within which my personal narrative unfolds, frequently leading into the transpersonal realm in which the horizons of meaning expand and deepen."--From the Introduction</p>
