Synopsis
A great master once said, 'The shortest distance between a human being and truth is a story.' Inthis long-awaited sequel to the classic The Spirituality of Imperfection , Ernest Kurtz and Katherine Ketcham show how the great wisdom stories can enrich and deepen our spiritual lives. Recounting and interpreting tales from all ages and all cultures, as well as telling many of their own, the authors shed light on such experiences as awe, wonder, humor, confusion, and forgiveness. In story after story, seekers look to those whose lives reveal a special quality - sometimes called spirituality - and ask the masters what they must do to attain that same quality. The answer is simple- 'Come, follow me, and see how I live.' Experiencing Spirituality teaches through the example of human experience. 'Through wisdom stories and the reflections typing them together, we can enter a place of wonder, mystery, and understanding, where we learn to be human and to awaken to new purpose in the tremendous plan of God. If, as the old adage says, experience is the best teacher, then Ernest Kurtz and Katherine Ketcham are (in my opinion) among its best proponents.'
