It proposes a new birth of this theology and understanding but with a new scope and new power for our time. </p> <p><strong>Bruno Barnhart</strong> was the spiritual director of New Camaldoli Hermitage in Big Sur, California.

Christianity's opening to the East has sparked a resurgence of its own wisdom tradition, the Christ-centered nondualistic consciousness of the mystics, through which it touches in appreciative fellowship the other wisdom traditions of the world. Father Bruno traces how this renewed consciousness is breaking out of the conventional containers of Christian and Western religious experience and creating a new realization of the depth and dynamism of the divine incarnation in the human and in the world." --Beatrice Bruteau </p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Bruno Barnhart was an author, spiritual director and monk of New Camaldoli Hermitage in Big Sur, California.
