I Am That I Am

Meer over het boek

In the fall of 1981, author Francis Bennett joined a Trappist monastery with the "lofty goal of becoming a joyful saint like St. Francis of Assisi, or at least a modern mystic like my hero, Thomas Merton." But it was only in letting go of how he thought things should be--and in surrendering his identification with a false, separate sense of self--that he found what he'd truly been seeking. In I Am That I Am, Bennett details his own spiritual journey with a unique freshness and humanity that combines Christian mysticism, Buddhism, and Advaita Vedanta or non-duality teachings to help readers find joy in the present moment and in themselves.
