Description
The Goal of Life
Laurence Freeman, OSB
"What does anyone gain by winning the whole world at the cost of his true self?" (Luke 9:25) That is the goal of life: to know who we truly are. The way to self-knowledge, Fr. Laurence says, is self-transcendence. We need to shift from self-centredness to a deeper centre where we are conscious of union with the other, with God. The simplifying discipline of saying the mantra in meditation, even in the face of distractions, liberates us from the ego and leads us to our true self in Christ. We come to wholeness and mature discipleship.
