"Si escuchas con atención un relato, nunca volverás a ser el mismo, puesto que ese relato se introducirá en tu corazón y, como si fuera un gusano, acabará royendo todos los obstáculos que se oponen a lo divino. Por eso, aunque leas los relatos de este libro sólo para pasar el rato, no hay ninguna garantía de que alguno de ellos no acabe deshaciendo tus defensas y explote cuando menos lo esperes. ¡Estás avisado!"

With silence increasingly becoming a stranger to us, one man set out to become its intimate: Pablo d'Ors, a Catholic priest whose life was changed by Zen meditation. With disarming honesty and directness, as well as a striking clarity of language, d'Ors shares his struggles as a beginning meditator: the tedium, restlessness, and distraction. But, persevering, the author discovers not only a deep peace and understanding of his true nature, but also that silence, rather than being a retreat from life, offers us an intense engagement with life just as it is.
