511 1  Read by Thomas Merton. 
520    Join monk and mystic Thomas Merton on a journey through 
       monastic and contemplative history. In these talks 
       delivered by Thomas Merton, you will gain a rich 
       introduction to the monastic period of Church history, 
       encountering such figures as St. Bernard of Clairvaux, St.
       Benedict, John Cassian, Basil, and Charlemagne. As you 
       will come to discover, the history of monasticism is 
       deeply intertwined with the greater history of Europe and 
       the Christian contemplative tradition. Join one of the 
       twentieth century's great contemplative masters in 
       deepening your understanding of the Christian life and 
       spiritual history. A bestselling author and mystic, Thomas
       Merton was a Trappist monk, and his monastic vision shaped
       his profound spirituality. In this series of lectures, he 
       examines the founding of the Cistercian Order, of which 
       the Trappists are a part, and what the early Cistercians 
       can teach us today.  You will journey with Merton through 
       the most vital events of Christian contemplative history. 
       Explore Christian monasticism's origins in the Desert 
       Fathers and Mothers, who encountered God in inspiring and 
       radical ways. Then, see how monasticism flourished under 
       the St. Benedict, whose rule promoted the power of 
       humility, work, and prayer. Most importantly, you will see
       how the medieval Cistercians, founded at the Abbey of 
       Cîteaux, have much to teach us about our world today. 
       Facing the excesses of the Middle Ages, these inspiring 
       spiritual ancestors sought lives of simplicity in order to
       make manifest their love of Christ. Theirs was a deeply 
       contemplative practice in which they gave themselves over 
       to God completely. With Merton as your guide, you will 
       explore such topics as Lectio Divina, the conversion of 
       manners, and the core values of the Trappist way of life. 
       Merton delivers these lectures with his signature grace, 
       wit, and wisdom. In taking Merton as your guide, you will 
       discover what it means to dedicate yourself to the search 
       for God.
