Description:
The Pearls of Life are being used by thousands of people today as a contemporary aid to prayer. The glass and ceramic bead bracelet, handmade in India and purchased through a fair trade company, is attached to the cover of the book and can be easily removed. The book itself, with a hard cover and featuring full-colour photos, describes how to use the pearls and the meaning of each of them:
The God Pearl
The Pearls of Silence
The I Pearl
The Baptism Pearl
The Desert Pearl
The Serenity Pearl
The Love Pearls
The Mystery Pearls
The Night Pearl
The Resurrection Pearl.
In this time of great spiritual longing as well as unprecedented busyness, stress and difficulty in focusing, Swedish bishop Martin Lönnebo has devised the Pearls of Life as a method to help the mind attain a state of stillness, meditation and prayer. In this way, we are drawn back to what is most important in our lives, to our spiritual centre and an experience of God.
