The Transformation of Desire: How Desire Became Corrupted - And Ow We Can Rediscover and Reclaimt it

Self-Help

Diarmuid O'Murchu

Personal Transformation

Darton,Longman & Todd Ltd.

The spiritual story of humanity is at least 70,000 years old. By comparison, the formal religions have existed for a mere 4,500 years. Spirituality is, and perhaps always has been, more central to human experience than religion. Diarmuid O Murchu's purpose in writing this book has been to retrieve the long lost subverted tradition of spirituality and re-establish its primary significance in the human search for meaning and purpose in life. While the modern world continues to struggle with religious fanaticism on the one hand and religious indifference on the other, spirituality explodes with new vision and with fresh possibilities for a more integrated world view. Drawing on the modern findings of many disciplines, the author sets out to explore this new spiritual irruption, one that leaves religious allegiance waning while millions throughout the world seek meaning and nourishment in a range of new contexts, many of which transcend, circumvent and even abandon the religious certainty of bygone days. This is a challenging and provocative but, above all, reassuring book for those who are seeking spiritual meaning today. Other books by Diarmuid O'Murchu Religion in Exile.

Reclaiming Spirituality

Religion & Spirituality

New Age & Spirituality

Gill and Macmillan

For millions throughout the world religions no longer provides hope or meaning. Exile and alienation are two words that constantly reoccur in modern literature. Religion fails to deliver on the bigger picture that is awakening in the soul of humanity. In fact, it is religion itself that is largely responsible for the exile and alienation we often experience. Following on his earlier work, Reclaiming Spirituality, Diarmuid O Murchu continues to offer some penetrating and original insights into the changing and evolving spiritual awareness of our time, one that is rapidly out-growing the time-honoured but exhausted vision of formal religion. This is a disturbing, but profoundly inspiring, contribution to the evolving spiritual consciousness of our time. It is an invaluable resource for many people who are trying to make sense of the new spiritual awakening. Other books by Diarmuid O'Murchu Reclaiming Spirituality.
