{"product_id":"immortal-diamond","title":"Immortal Diamond","description":"In Falling Upward (and in many of his other teachings),\nRichard Rohr talks at length about ego (or the False Self)\nand how it gets in the way of spiritual maturity, especially if\nitspreoccupations continue into the second half of life. But if\nthere’s a False Self, is there also a True Self? What is it? How\nis it found? Why does it matter? And what does it have to do\nwith the spiritual journey?\nIn this book, he likens True Self to a diamond, buried deep\nwithin us, formed under the intense pressure of our lives,\nneeding to be searched for, uncovered and separated from\nall the debris of ego that surrounds it. In a sense True Self\nmust, like Jesus, be resurrected, and thatprocess is not\nresuscitation but transformation.\nImmortal Diamond (the title is taken from a line in a Gerard\nManley Hopkins poem) explores the deepest questions of\nidentity, spirituality and in Richard Rohr’s inimitable style.\ney to give us an understanding of how the heartbreaks,\ndisappointments and first loves of life are actually stepping\nstones to the spiritualjoys that the second half of life has in\nstore for us.","brand":"Richard Rohr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55025360273784,"sku":"9780281070176","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0611\/9351\/9316\/files\/530073_LRG_e864c06c-61a1-4925-9f1c-8981b8dd8d51.jpg?v=1756223768","url":"https:\/\/etcevents.co.uk\/products\/immortal-diamond","provider":"ETCEvents","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
