THE GENTLE ART OF SPIRITUAL DISCERNMENT by Pierre Pradervand

Many of us already know what an inspiring teacher Pierre is. His books contain many stories of spiritual healing both from his own life and from people in challenging conditions in West Africa for example and on death row in Texas. I am pleased to say that this is more of the same. It’s not a big book but it’s packed full of teachings and anecdotes and there is little superfluous theory. It’s great as a pick-me-up and an overall uplift when we are tired and perhaps down a little. It’s interesting to read that he too had to rediscover his spiritual strength after it was all blown away. There are also practical teachings in the book as well as stories and personal accounts. The three questions he suggests we try and answer are: Who am I deep down? What am I really looking for? And what is the deep motivation for my search?
