Download or read book The View from a Monastery written by Benet Tvedten and published by Riverhead Books. This book was released on 2000-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The View from a Monastery by Brother Benet Tvedten, is a memoir of life in the Benedictine community at South Dakota's Blue Cloud Abbey. (This abbey was famously described by Kathleen Norris in both Dakota and The Cloister Walk.) Tvedten mines his 40 years at Blue Cloud for colorful stories about the routines, rituals, and leisure activities that have filled his life, and writes an engaging narrative about the liberation he has found in the restrictions of his Benedictine community. The View from a Monastery is perhaps most affecting in its descriptions of Tvetden's discernment of his vocation. Raised Protestant in a small town in North Dakota, Tvetden read Thomas Merton's The Seven-Storey Mountain as a teenager, which put him on the road to conversion--a painful decision for both him and his family. The first time his parents saw him with his head shaved (a requirement at the Abbey), they cried. The first time he had to spend Christmas apart from them, he cried. Most of Tvetden's stories about monastic life, however, are happier ones. He has immense affection and reverence for the foibles and eccentricities of his brothers, such as Father Francis (who raised wild birds in his cell) and Brother Lawrence (who sold bad paintings to unsuspecting tourists). With stories like these, Tvetden gives the lie to the popular notion that monasteries are little patches of sweet bye-and-bye here on earth. Instead, he gives readers reasons to take joy in the flaws of creation. "If you've heard that monks are saints, you've been told a lie," Tvedten writes. "Like everyone else, we're sinners. You may even be scandalized by some of the things that happen in the monastery. If you are running away from yourself, you won't escape here."--Michael Joseph Gross --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You don't have to live in a monastery in order to live like a monk. Oblates are everyday people with jobs, families, and other responsibilities.

Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER AND NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR “Vivid, compelling... An embrace of moral and spiritual contemplation.” –The New York Times “A remarkable piece of writing. If read with humility and attention, Kathleen Norris's book becomes lectio divina, or holy reading.” –The Boston Globe From the iconic author of Amazing Grace: A Vocabulary of Faith, a spiritual journey that brings joy to the meanings of love, grace and faith. Why would a married woman with a thoroughly Protestant background and often more doubt than faith be drawn to the ancient practice of monasticism, to a community of celibate men whose days are centered on a rigid schedule of prayer, work, and scripture? This is the question that poet Kathleen Norris asks us as, somewhat to her own surprise, she found herself on two extended residencies at St. John's Abbey in Minnesota. Part record of her time among the Benedictines, part meditation on various aspects of monastic life, The Cloister Walk demonstrates, from the rare perspective of someone who is both an insider and outsider, how immersion in the cloistered world-- its liturgy, its ritual, its sense of community-- can impart meaning to everyday events and deepen our secular lives. In this stirring and lyrical work, the monastery, often considered archaic or otherworldly, becomes immediate, accessible, and relevant to us, no matter what our faith may be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A love letter to a community of Trappist monks who provided family when it was needed the most. This warmhearted memoir describes how a small, insecure boy with a vibrant imagination found an unlikely family in the company of monks at Holy Trinity Abbey, in the mountains of rural Latter-day Saint Utah. Struggling with his parents' recent divorce, Michael O'Brien discovered a community filled with warmth, humor, idiosyncrasies, and most of all, listening ears. Filled with anecdotes and delightful "behind the scenes" descriptions of his experiences living alongside the monks as they farmed, prayed, buried their dead, ate, and shared the joys of life, Monastery Mornings speaks to the value of spiritual fatherhood, the lasting impact of positive mentoring, and the stability that the spiritual life can offer to people of all ages and walks of life.
