The Naked Now

I've had this book recommended to me for years, and when I got a gift card for Mother's Day, I finally plunged in and bought it. So glad I did.

The author is a Catholic priest and he's had time to reflect on what religion should bring to us and what it isn't bringing to us. And since religion isn't doing its job, Rohr has decided to help out and share some real secrets we are missing out on.

Shall I share one? I think I shall.

Jesus is telling us these secrets in every word he speaks, but we are too caught up in our dualistic thinking to understand what he is telling us. To get to Jesus, to experience God, we have to let go of our scientific yes-no, black-white thoughts and be in the naked now.

Sounds easy, right? Rohr would beg to differ. It's the hardest thing you will ever do.
I better get busy, then. Off to live in the naked now. Let's see if I can try to put Rohr's secrets to work.
