The Jesuit scientist Pierre Teilhard de Chardin was one such voice and Beatrice Bruteau, a disciple of Teilhard, is another. In this collection of essays written over a period of twenty years, Bruteau offers us a luminous vision of a new social order in an evolutionary world. This is a profound book, written by a scholar of wisdom. It is a book that can appeal to a wide variety of people–academics and nonacademics alike–because of its depth and breadth. [A]ll those who read \u003ci\u003eThe Grand Option \u003c\/i\u003ewill not only be lured by Bruteau’s vision and insight but will return time and again to this book, for it is itself an evolution in thought.” —\u003ci\u003eSpiritual Life\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Written with clarity and elegance, Dr. Bruteau’s book combines a rich legacy of intellectual wealth with her own valuable personal experience and mystical contemplation.” —\u003ci\u003ePrabuddha Bharata\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“\u003ci\u003eThe Grand Option\u003c\/i\u003e sings from start to finish with passion and depth. Bruteau brilliantly evokes the cosmic dimension of evolution and morphs Christian theology into a razor-sharp and inspired theory of collective human transformation that will appeal to Christians and non-Christians alike.” —\u003ci\u003eWhat is Enlightenment?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"[Bruteau] updates and reweaves her unique synthesis of a progressive evolution, Eastern traditions, neo-feminism, which altogether achieve a consummate twenty-first century Christian vision. In a series of essays that course among these realms and others, Dr. Bruteau proceeds and builds toward a radically novel Earthwide Christianity.” —\u003cem\u003eThailand Perspective\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Longleaf - Univ of Notre Dame Du Lac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51767209558359,"sku":"9780268010416","price":62.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780268010416.jpg?v=1758712536","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/grand-option-the-personal-transformation-and-a-new-creation-3-gethsemani-studies-in-psychological-and-religious-anthropology-9780268010416","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
