This is a beautiful, poetic, highly personal and highly moving account of Rahner's relationship with God. Each short chapter (there are 10 in total) takes the form of an address to God on a particular subject, as such it is like one side of a conversation. But as Rahner explores the subject although the voice of God is not heard - hence perhaps tthe silence in the title - it seems to come through the reflection in answer to Rahner's prayers. One of the best spiritual books I have read. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
One of the classics of modern spirituality, Encounters with Silence is one of Karl Rahner's most lucid and powerful books. A book of meditations about man's relation with God, it is not a work of dry theology, but rather a book of prayerful reflections on love, knowledge, and faith, obedience, everyday routines, life with our friends and neighbors, our work and vocation, and human goodness. The immense success of this moving work is a tribute to its practicality and the ability of the great theologian to speak simply and yet profoundly to ordinary men and women seeking an inspiring guide to the inner life, one that never forsakes the world of reality. The book is cast in the form of a dialogue with God that moves from humble but concerned inquiry to joyful contemplation. "You will come again because the fact that you have already come must continue to be revealed ever more clearly. It must become progressively manifest to the world that the heart of all things is already transformed, because you have taken them all to your heart. . . . The false appearance of our world, the shabby pretense that it has not been liberated . . . must be more and more thoroughly rooted out and destroyed. . . . And your coming is neither past nor future, but the present, which has only to reach its fulfillment. Now it is still the one single hour of your advent."
