Product Details
The Power of Silence addresses our time where there is more and more noise, technology, and materialism continue to exert their hold on us. Cardinal Robert Sarah boldly presents the strength of silence in The Power of Silence. The world generates so much noise that seeking moments of silence only becomes more necessary. For Cardinal Sarah, modern man, in repressing the divine, finds himself in a deep dilemma, an oppressive and anguishing trial. In The Power of Silence, the Cardinal recalls that life is a silent relationship between what is most intimate in man and God. Silence is indispensable for hearing the music of God: prayer arises from silence and returns to silence with ever greater depth.
The Power of Silence brings the fruits of Cardinal Sarah’s long and profound conversation with Nicolas Diat, done within the hallowed walls of silence in the famous Carthusian monastery of La Grande Chartreux in France. “Can those who do not know silence ever attain truth, beauty, love?” is one of the Cardinal’s questions. The response is undeniable: all that is great and creative is formed by silence. God is silence. Cardinal Sarah seeks to restore to silence its place of honor and importance. "Although speech characterizes man, silence is what defines him, because speech acquires sense only in terms of this silence." This is the beautiful and significant message of The Power of Silence. "Silence is difficult but it makes a human being able to allow himself to be led by God. Silence is born of silence” as the Cardinal writes in The Power of Silence.
