This early work by Anglo-American Catholic writer Thomas Merton is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. It contains a wealth of information on spiritual direction and how to learn the art of meditation. This fascinating work is thoroughly recommended for anyone with an interest in spiritual life. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.… (meer)

This is a timeless classic compendium of writings on spiritual direction and meditation. Merton takes form all traditions and helps the seeker to find God in nature and all aspects of life. It is accessable yet challenging.

Great book! Why? Because it provides 'down-to-earth' sensible information and guidance concerning the two subjects declared in the book's title. I have read a number of books on spiritual direction and meditation. But this short Christ centered book, of 107 pages is unlike them in that it does not drift into the esoteric or the side issues. Moreover, the book convinces the reader that spiritual direction & meditation are essential for growth in godliness. (

Merton's commentary on meditation includes everything from explaining the true goal of meditation (union with God) to teaching the basics (e.g., it's best to meditate when seated). His primer is must reading for anyone interested in meditation, or anyone wishing to improve his/her prayer life in general. (

Fair book. Begins well then flounders at the end. In his discussion on meditation, he is really equating it to interior, silent prayer versus meditatio of the Benedictine tradition and zen. (
