Inspired, Rilke returned to Germany and put down on paper what he felt were spontaneously received prayers. \u003ci\u003eRilke's Book of Hours\u003c\/i\u003e is the invigorating vision of spiritual practice for the secular world, and a work that seems remarkably prescient today, one hundred years after it was written.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRilke's Book of Hours\u003c\/i\u003e shares with the reader a new kind of intimacy with God, or the divine--a reciprocal relationship between the divine and the ordinary in which God needs us as much as we need God. Rilke influenced generations of writers with his Letters to a Young Poet, and now \u003ci\u003eRilke's Book of Hours\u003c\/i\u003e tells us that our role in the world is to love it and thereby love God into being. These fresh translations rendered by Joanna Macy, a mystic and spiritual teacher, and Anita Barrows, a skilled poet, capture Rilke's spirit as no one has done before.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46302221336805,"sku":"NP9781594481567","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9781594481567.jpg?v=1767735790","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/rilke-s-book-of-hours-love-poems-to-god-isbn-9781594481567","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
