"Spirituality means waking up. Most people, even though they don’t know it, are asleep. They’re born asleep, they live asleep, they marry in their sleep, they breed children in their sleep, they die in their sleep without ever waking up".
Anthony (Tony) DeMello (1939-1987) was an Indian Jesuit priest. He is widely known for his ground-breaking and enduring work that integrates western and eastern spirituality, and he is regarded as one of the 20th century’s foremost spiritual philosophers. Through his still bestselling books, DeMello presents a method of self-inquiry he described as a practical spirituality, in which a simple practice of awareness leads to the level of personal transformation that can open to realms of enlightenment. Listen here to excerpts from his recorded lectures.
