  • Eternal Consciousness
    John S. Dunne / John SDunne
    In his new book, John S. Dunne asks: 'So what is eternal consciousness? It is, I take it, consciousness of the eternal in us. If time is ’a changing image of eternity,’ as Plato says, the changing image of the human being is like The Voyage of Life, four paintings by Thomas Cole, showing childhood, youth, adulthood, and age. The eternal in us is the person going through these p...

  • Circle Dance of Time, The
    John S. Dunne / John SDunne
    There is nothing wiser than the circle, Rilke says in his Stories of God. John Dunne’s new book explores the wisdom of the circle. He uses the metaphor of the circle dance, a folk dance in which the women form an inner circle, holding hands and moving clockwise; the men form an outer circle, moving counterclockwise. When the music stops the person opposite you is your partner f...

    John S. Dunne

  • The Homing Spirit
    John S. Dunne / John SDunne
    I call this book The Homing Spirit, thinking of the anguish of not knowing where home is, and the hope and joy of the spirit finding its true home. It is possible, I learned, to have a direction even though you feel lost and don’t know where you are. As I understand it, coming home for the spirit means coming to peace. My own quest of peace, as I tell of it here, takes the ...

  • Reasons of the Heart, The
    John S. Dunne / John SDunne
    Like all writers of really good spiritual theology, John Dunne never betrays his subject matter with the kind of pious posturing or psycho-babble gimmickry that too often passes for spiritual writing. Dunne’s theological sensitivity is alert to nuance without becoming trapped into mere jargon. His care for the heart of authentic spirituality, like Henri Nouwen’s, is steady and ...

  • The Church of the Poor Devil
    John S. Dunne

One is the author’s account of his five-day riverboat trip up the Amazon and his discovery of the tiny Church of the Poor Devil, whose members revealed a spiritual wealth in the midst of abject poverty. The other is Dunne’s own spiritual quest and his 'passing over' from a personal religion co...

  • Way of All the Earth, The
    John S. Dunne / John SDunne
    'The holy man of our time, it seems, is not a figure like Gotama or Jesus or Mohammed, a man who could found a world religion, but a figure like Gandhi, a man who passes over by sympathetic understanding from his own religion to other religions and comes back again with new insight to his own. Passing over and coming back, it seems, is the spiritual adventure of our time. It is...

  • Search for God in Time and Memory, A
    John S. Dunne / John SDunne
    A Search for God in Time and Memory is an experiment in religious thought. While Catholic in scope and in historical perspective, it bypasses religious authority and official documents to find its sources in the life experiences of individuals. 'It is a search,' says John S. Dunne, 'which will carry us on quests and journeys through life stories, through hells, purgatories and ...
