Synopsis "Enlightened Contemporaries: Francis, Dogen, and Rumi: Three Great Mystics of the Thirteenth Century and why They Matter Today"
Enlightened Contemporaries is the first book to compare the lives and teachings of three of the world's most admired spiritual masters: Francis of Assisi, the Christian saint; Dōgen, the great Zen Buddhist teacher; and Rūmī, the Islamic Sufi master. Living during the same turbulent century, they integrated mystical experiences of the sacred into their lives, and they can inspire us to do the same. Five shared themes are highlighted: spiritual love, nature, the body, the role of women, and balancing the retreat from society with active involvement. By interweaving the spiritual lives of these Christian, Buddhist, and Muslim teachers, Enlightened Contemporaries helps readers enhance their own lives and find new paths of spiritual understanding.
