Resumen del Editor

Dissolve the distractions of ego to find our authentic selves in God.

In his best-selling book Falling Upward, Richard Rohr talked about ego (or the False Self) and how it gets in the way of spiritual maturity. But if there's a False Self, is there also a True Self? What is it? How is it found? Why does it matter? And what does it have to do with the spiritual journey? This book likens True Self to a diamond, buried deep within us, formed under the intense pressure of our lives, that must be searched for, uncovered, separated from all the debris of ego that surrounds it. In a sense True Self must, like Jesus, be resurrected, and that process is not resuscitation but transformation.

• Shows how to navigate spiritually difficult terrain with clear vision and tools to uncover our True Selves
• Written by Father Richard Rohr, the best-selling author of Falling Upward
• Examines the fundamental issues of who we are and helps us on our path of spiritual maturity

Immortal Diamond (whose title is taken from a line in a Gerard Manley Hopkins poem) explores the deepest questions of identity, spirituality, and meaning in Richard Rohr's inimitable style.

This is another Spiritual gem from Richard Rohr

As with his countless other works I found Immortal Diamond, transformational. I discovered my Immortal Diamond. I hope that you do too.

Beautiful thoughts ruined by a robotic narrator

This collection of broad thoughts from the thoughtful Rohr is a good resource. Unfortunately the narration is terrible. Buy the paperback.

Great book. Narration could be better.

Great book, excellent message. My only criticism would be how the narration sounds quite robotic at times & can be difficult to listen to.

Hope I had known this beforehand

Loved it and highly recommend this book for people of all ages and religious believes

An indestructible message

If you and I take this message to heart and our thinking, then apply it to our lives, what a beautiful world we will be creating!

LIFE CHANGER

An introductory guide into true spirituality. Leaving the foundational doctrine of Christ crucified to the real meat and essence of the experience of Christ - to us, in us, through us. In Him we live, and move, and have our being. Absolutely spot on and thought provoking. Increase the fire beneath the pot of faith with Immortal Diamond by Rohr. I thank God for him and his books, they have helped me immensely in my walk with God, illuminating truth and calming the frustrations and misunderstandings all to common in modern Christianity. GET THIS BOOK!!!

Deep waters

I felt seen as I read this. It affirmed things I’ve been experiencing and being called into.
I love when things are named and explained that you know through experience but don’t know how to explain.
A significant and life-changing book.
I remember reading it a year ago and feeling like it was too abstract for me then and I couldn’t connect. This time I was ready.
So very grateful.

Amazing

Such a relief to find the fact of universal (rather than denominational) spirit to be shown in our Western Christ teachings and not just in Eastern spiritual teachings. And all in utter authentic love and devotion to Jesus. We have to wake up to universal love and truth to ever bring humanity to peace and love. Richard Rohr is helping us unbury the Immortal Diamond, the core spirit in each of us. Thank you Richard.

Mind opening

Great book with wonderful insights that make you think about how your inner self is needed to be able to let go and grow from a good perspective

Love this book and it’s message

This author makes so much sense of God and how to live a true life with Christian values that includes all walks of life and other faiths.
