Description
A personal account of searching for spiritual understanding initially outside Christian teaching, this book takes the position that there are as many ways to God as there are paths up a mountain. Interpreting his own spiritual breakthroughs, the author describes them as "windows of realization" and likens them to the sensation of being made whole. The book describes his journey from Eastern mantra-style meditation to the Orthodox "prayer of the heart" and details how a love of nature and a desire to do good played an important part in his spiritual unfoldment.
Praise for Wonders of Spiritual Unfoldment
"Composed from notes, poems, and vivid insights that have been collected over the years by a remarkable man, this is a book which, with huge generosity and honesty, offers these insights to all of its readers. —The Messenger: Journal of the Orthodox Church of Russian Origin in England
"An extraordinary book by an extraordinary man, who happens to be a member of my parish in Nottingham. I highly recommend this book for its fascinating, unusual, and deeply spiritual teaching." —Mary Cunningham, lecturer in patristic theology at Nottingham University, in The Messsenger
"This book is naïve in the best sense of the word. Essentially it is the reflections of an elderly man on a very full life lived in quest of God; the life itself interspersed with meditations which take the reader deeper into the doubts and illuminations which he experiences along the way. It is told with a beautiful simplicity, yet almost every page will bear re-reading." —The Watkins Review
"The book is really a collection of poetry and reflections on experiences as they happened with comments added by [Timaeus]." —UK News
