Saint John's School of Theology and Seminary graduate David Odorisio, PhD recently published his second book, Merton and Hinduism - The Yoga of the Heart. Dr. Odorisio explores the life and writings of Thomas Merton, Catholic Priest, Trappist Monk and pioneer of inter-religious dialogue. The book features many never-before-published essays Merton wrote on Hindu and Yoga traditions. These essays solidify Merton's role as a teacher, cultural commentator, and contemplative practitioner interested in the mutually enriching dialogue among Catholic Christianity, Hinduism and Yoga traditions.
