These poems are “the hidden lost language of the soul” revealed.\u003cbr\u003e Jeremy Driscoll, O.S.B. Abbot of Mount Angel Abbey\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Paul Murray’s poetry is always a miracle of compression and economy without ever seeming sparse or austere. These luminous meditative pieces have the richness that comes from an intent focus on the everyday and the material as carrying immeasurable grace.\u003cbr\u003e Rowan Williams, Former Archbishop of Canterbury\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The present work contains poems and meditations voiced by Paul Murray for Moling, an Irish monk and poet of the 7th century. In the Irish tradition, Moling is the figure who most resembles St Francis of Assisi. He is a man, a saint, whose presence resists linear history, who yet walks toward us in wonder and myth. In \u003ci\u003eMoling in Meditation\u003c\/i\u003e, the poems, though quiet in their form and expression, represent nevertheless a fresh and, at times, bold exploration of states of soul and psyche which, in almost every age, accompany the spiritual journey. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40882495357025,"sku":"9781587315190","price":17.51,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_28256838.jpg?v=1722450832","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781587315190-moling-in-meditation","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
