Inhaltsangabe
Evelyn Underhill was a renowned pacifist and Christian mystic. Her writings on religion were famous in her day and still resonate right up to the present.
This book was drawn and expanded from some talks Underhill gave in Oxford, in which she attempted to link psychology and spirituality. She also discusses the place of institutional religion and of spirituality in the context of wider society. As elsewhere in her writings she emphasises the wonder of incarnation and life.
The Life of the Spirit and the Life of Today is certainly recommended for fans of Underhill, but any religious individual will find resonance in her writing and should certainly take the time to explore why she was so influential.

From the sense of security found in the vastness of the universe to the intimacy of a personal relationship with God, the book explores the varied forms of spiritual awareness.

It's a quest for a more complete realization of self, a journey towards a deeper understanding of reality.
