"Eclectic as The Spiritual Athlete is, the timelessness of these voices is
striking. Their thoughts seem relevant and contemporary, although they
span 2000 years. Even more remarkable, there is complete agreetnent
among these illumined souls that, as Peace Pilgrim says, "the spiritual life
is the real life; all else is illusion," and the goal and the source of
overwhelming ultimate joy is oneness with God. The point of spiritual
discipline is not renunciation but fulfillment
Despite the profundity of its message, this is not a scholarly work o
theology, but a comfortable, accessible introduction to great religious
teachers for the spiritual aspirant
Patty Campbell, The Wilson Library Bulletin
"Reading The Spiritual Athlete makes one want to go into training
immediately."
Huston Smith, author of The Religions of Man
"Page after page, I found myself lifted to higher levels of
understanding, openness and an unquenchable hunger for more of this
knowledge. Any book that can make you feel good, inspire you to cleanse
your life, or to love God or your fellow man is a truly good find; this book
has all of these qualities and more.
I highly recommend this book for yourself as well as gift-giving-I
plan to read it over and over again as soon as I can pry it free from the
hands of my friends, who each want to be the next one to read it."
Elayne Ketcher Cardenaz, Whole Life Times
"As fine a collection of spiritual friends as one could wish to guide
one's heart on the path."
Jack Kornfield, author of Seeking the Heart of Wisdom
"The Spiritual Athlete is done in a spirit that makes it apt for
inspiriation, reflection and meditation. The way that it crosses customary
boundaries shows us an inner life which is greater than the life of any
articular religious tradition and one which is closer to the inner life of the
God Who calls all without distinction. It invites you to be a part of this
great crowd of witnesses of the action of God."
Father James Conner, OCSO, Abbey of Gethsemani, Trappist, Ky
Foreword by Georg Feuerstein
