- Summary:
- This book is a philosophical exploration of desire, drama and the divine Ground of being that pays particular attention to Eric Voegelin's symbol of the 'flow of presence' in our lives. It shows how this Flow may be impeded by anxiety or depression and how the solution involves attending to the meaning of the moment, living meditatively in the present, and discerning the divine desire. Dr. Costello's guides on this personal quest, aside from Voegelin, whose thought provides a philosophical framework for his exploration, are Goethe, Iris Murdoch and St. Ignatius of Loyola.
