Thomas Moore’s Meditations dealt with a monk’s daily life. Moore was a monk before leaving the Servite Order founded in Italy in 1233. His book is a reflection of his experiences that he felt would be beneficial to Christians. Being a former Roman Catholic, who is married with a family, Moore’s meditations didn’t deal with his later life as an academic and father.The author concentrated on the rules that governed his life as religious in the monastery. Being in a cloistered community he had a spiritual director, took the vow of poverty, and celibacy. There was time to read in the library, for having meals with fellow monks, a call for prayer in the chapel every morning with matins and vespers at night before bed time. Moore had an interest in music so included were meditations on music and chanting. He described his experience in the monastery as joyful, although he missed his family, and was withdrawn from the world. But he said there was a tendency towards being authoritarian by the prior. These meditations were however from his youthful experience while a monk. Readers looking for devotions about a monastic life would find this collection edifying.

"without a constant and intimate relationship with nature, divinity is not fully revealed"so many contemplative gems in this compilation of meditations.

After reading a few spritual classics, I can see why some reviewers are counting Moore's work among them. His influence is the most subltest, but far reaching, all the while maintaining a unique,and refreshing point of view. A point of view, which,surprisingly, I can hear some of the greatest of poets- although his work are mainly in this and the another rich field of religion.

As an agnostic I found myself surprisingly moved after reading about this former monks encounters with a world unknown. Highly recommend for anyone looking at intelligent self-help books and the secular upsides of meditation...

Love this work. Particularly enjoyed listening to the audio format while driving to and from pastoral calls at the hospital in Idaho Falls.
