Summary

A book to help Christian readers awaken their hearts to a deepened  spiritual perception of the world by reclaiming the practices of  our Wisdom tradition. The author introduces the idea of a  three-centered knowing: a way of looking at the world with the  heart (this mystical, spiritual vision) in conjunction with the  mind (rational) and body (physical). The goal is to see beyond the  physical and rational aspects of our selfhood and to the inner  quality of aliveness that the mind alone cannot perceive. This  depth of perception gives us a grounded, sustaining vision for our  life's purpose and meaning, and helps us to sacrifice the  artificial (and therefore limiting) parts of ourselves and yield to  the wholeness of the divine will.   With vivid stories and examples, the author illustrates  spiritual concepts of vision, sacrifice, and transformation, In a  final chapter, she provides tools, ideas, and practical advice for  developing Wisdom practices and nurturing visionary seeing.  Most books on this kind of mystical spiritual vision are either  based on personal experience, or new-age philosophies, or come from  Jewish, Sufi, or Buddhist mystical traditions. Where Our True  Heart Lies is the only book to locate the ancient and precise  Wisdom tradition firmly within the Christian heritage and helps  Christians see how it fits within their theology.
