With a preface by Mirabai Starr, a foreword by Sufi teacher Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee, and an afterword by Fr. Thomas Keating.

Review "There is enough guidance, connection, and wisdom in this book to keep you acting, thinking and praying for a lifetime! You would be foolish not to take advantage of it. Rory and Adam are trying to do what St. Francis wanted to do 800 years ago. Maybe now we are more prepared and even ready!" --Richard Rohr, O.F.M., Center for Action and Contemplation Albuquerque, New Mexico"Rory McEntee and Adam Bucko, pilgrims of a new monasticism, write with reverence about our collective spiritual inheritance, and in remembrance of the singular Presence that alone fills the soul s longing. Offering a comprehensive introduction to a new monastic movement, including its pathways and transformations, Bucko and McEntee share their map of the journey to Divine awakening, honoring the monk within. This is a book for anyone who seeks the mystical cloister beyond any one form, with a monastic heart open to all creation." --Beverly Lanzetta, PhD, author, Radical Wisdom: A Feminist Mystical TheologyThis book is a divining rod for the crossroads where we find ourselves. For monastic legacies in danger of extinction, for a world that has never needed them more desperately, Bucko and McEntee offer a vision that is old as well as new, rooted as well as cosmopolitan." --Nathan Schneider, author, Thank You, Anarchy: Notes from the Occupy Apocalypse.

The guide book for a new generation of sincere spiritual seekers By Alissa There is an entire generation of young people who are not jaded, cynical, or numbed out on entertainment, yoga bliss, or organic artisanal everything. They are sincere spiritual seekers with high aspirations, a strong sense of social justice, and the determination to live their convictions, despite a world that doesn’t really support them.Adam and Rory have had the patience and the persistence to mine the best of the spiritual traditions that seem to be crumbling. They understand the realities of the younger generation, yet honor the traditions and have sat with the texts, the traditions, and the elders that most young people find to be too boring, stale, or irrelevant to them. They have unearthed modern day gems like Brother Wayne Teasdale, who began pointing the way towards the mystic heart beating under all religions. This is one form of Brother Wayne’s continuation.Realizing that the young are not going to put up with discrimination or exclusion in their spirituality, they bring in the best thinkers and mystics across many spiritual traditions. But they are not just addressing the altar boys and girls; they practice and work with kids living on the streets of New York City — those who have been failed by every institution. They have tuned in to what their hopes and dreams are, what resonates for them, and are using that understanding to build a new spiritual framework that truly works for everyone.As the old institutions comes down, young people are building the scaffolding for new institutions that will truly serve them. This book is an important guide book for that work.What they’re seeing out there:“We have found that many people toay are feeling the same deep calling as the monks of old, a calling of complete commitment to the transformative journey, yet without the urge to act out this calling in the traditional way. They do not find themselves necessarily drawn to a monastery, or to celibacy, or to disengagement and liberation from the world. They instead feel a radical urge to live out this calling in the world - to be embedded in the world, with the hardship of financial realities, the ups an downs of political unrest, the blessings and difficulties or relationships - all in the midst of a contemporary society that does not support such a calling. It adds a level of complexity to the monastic vocation, perhaps many levels. Yet those of use who feel this calling could never do otherwise, for deep in our souls we know that our journey to wholeness lies in bringing the radical profundity and divine, transformative energy of our paths firmly into the world.”

A Provocative Contemplation and Authentic Path for Interspiritual Seekers By Ivan Kruh This is a wonderful book -- bringing together strands that have become a hugely important part of my spiritual path in recent years - the Interspiritual view of Br. Wayne Teasdale, the Integral perspective of Ken Wilber, and the teachings of teachers within all of the "traditional religions" (and outside of any of the traditional religions) who have seen arriving at the 'other shore' as more essential than the boat one uses to navigate the waters. This book provides a model for helping spiritual seekers integrate the deep commitment to a contemplative life of the traditional cloistered monastic and the passionate engagement in social justice of the modern activist. This balancing of inner and outer life has been spoken of within many traditions (e.g., Engaged Buddhism), but the power of this book is in its guidance toward how to do this on a variety of Interspiritual paths that are becoming increasingly common -- including the practitioner who is deeply rooted in one tradition and openly exploring others, the multiple-belonging practitioner (Zen Christians; Hin-Jews, etc.), and the practitioner who belongs to no particular tradition and explores many (the “spiritual but not religious” set). In some ways, the model and methods being proposed here are the antidote to the “supermarket of spiritual superficiality” criticism often levied against these paths. It is possible to develop a path that is true to one’s unique calling but also has deep integrity. In short, anyone who is deeply spiritual but has had trouble finding a home in traditional religious structures will find valuable guidance and advice in this book. The writing can be a bit uneven, at times – but the messages are extremely powerful. The “manifesto” that forms the heart of the book is exquisitely written. Some people embedded in traditional religious paths who do not feel called to open up beyond them may struggle with what is being suggested here (as is reflected in one of the negative reviews here on Amazon). But for others for whom life has offered or even forced integration of multiple perspectives, (depending where you are on your path) the manifesto may just help name and clarify the path you have already been on, attract you to some new ways of thinking about (and practicing) your path, or completely wake you up to a new world of spiritual possibility.

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. I've already recommended it to 5 friends By Jane S. Rechtman I am so excited about this book! The role models are deep and inspiring. The ideas -- interspirituality, being contemplative AND socially engaged, I-Thou Dialogue -- are well explained, and so important to this world today. I've already recommended it to 5 friends: an Episcopal priest, a Zen Buddhist, a Catholic nun, a world religions teacher, and a Jewish youth worker. They will all love it.
