A Modern Presentation of Inner Prayer for Christians

This is an extremly practical, yet deep book on prayer, and inner purification. Anyone interested in Eastern Orthodoxy, Eastern Christianity, or esoteric(inner) Christianity will find food for there soul here. It masterly discusses liturgical prayer and inner prayer(example-Jesus prayer). It gives practical instruction on developing inner peace and detachment(though in a firmly Christian context). The last part of the book is a profound meditation on the Lord's prayer. I have read most of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox classics and many protestant ones too. This is probably the best book on prayer I have ever read(I've read 100's). It is really more than a book on prayer-it is about ascetical life and life "in the Spirit." Those of you who study St. Theophan the Recluse and the Orthodox saints and/or the Catholic mystics, and Protestant divines will be delighted and enlightened by this book. This book will bring the glorious spirituality of the early Church, the Church Fathers, and all the saints into your heart and mind. The transforming power and practicability of this book would be hard to overexpress. Of course one must put in into practice to "taste and see that the Lord is good." Glory to God for all things!
