Basta un año de meditación perseverante, o incluso medio, para percatarse de que se puede vivir de otra forma. La meditación agrieta la estructura de nuestra personalidad hasta que, de tanto meditar, la grieta se ensancha y la vieja personalidad se rompe y, como una flor, comienza a nacer una nueva. Meditar es asistir a este fascinante y tremendo proceso de muerte y renacimiento. Poco más de un centenar de páginas de inaudita intensidad que nos ayudan a comprender la importancia de esa humilde pero profunda virtud que es la atención. Un libro tan pequeño como exquisito que recoge una obstinada búsqueda de sí mismo. Tras conocer a Franz Jalics -su maestro- y en respuesta a los miles de lectores que le escribieron para comentarle y agradecerle su Biografía del silencio, Pablo d'Ors funda en 2014 la asociación Amigos del Desierto, cuyo propósito es profundizar y promover la práctica contemplativa.
With silence increasingly becoming a stranger to us, one man set out to become its intimate: Pablo d'Ors, a Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation. With disarming honesty and directness, as well as a striking clarity of language, d'Ors shares his struggles as a beginning meditator: the tedium, restlessness, and distraction. But, persevering, the author discovers not only a deep peace and understanding of his true nature, but also that silence, rather than being a retreat from life, offers us an intense engagement with life just as it is. Imbued with a rare beauty, Biography of Silence shows us the deep joy of silence that is available to us all.
