About THE NAKED NOW:
This book explores methods for letting go of division and living in the present. Drawn from the Gospels, Jesus, Paul and the great Christian contemplatives, this examination reveals how many hidden truths of Christianity have been misunderstood or lost and how to read them with the eyes of the mystics rather than interpreting them through rational thought. Filled with sayings, stories, quotations and appeals to the heart, specific methods for identifying dualistic thinking are presented with simple practices for stripping away ego and the fear of dwelling in the present.
"Rohr is enriched by other world religious traditions, but clearly knows his own. Those interested in contemplative Christianity, and particularly Catholics interested in their own tradition, will benefit from this book." --Publishers Weekly
