Summary: Useful, complete introductions
Comment: This slim volume is an excellent introduction to the Jesus Prayer for those in the Western Christian tradition. It is practical and down-to-earth, bypassing the Eastern theology and mysticism often embedded in introductions to the prayer.

This book includes a short history of the prayer, instructions for its use including the setting of realistic expectations, guidance on the difficulties that may arise ...

Why only three stars? This is a solid, useful book written in straightfoward language but it contains nothing to set it apart from similar books.

Rating: 5
Summary: Short and Simple, Peaceful and Pure
Comment: If you have read "The Way of the Pilgrim" and feel attracted to the Jesus Prayer, you may safely rely on this little book to get you started and keep you going.

I like to memorize worthwhile and beautiful passages in books as an aid to internalization, to become what I read, and the highest praise I can give to this book is that the whole thing is worth learning by heart. Fitting...for the "Prayer of the Heart."

Rating: 5
Summary: A perfect introduction
Comment: Zaleski's book is a perfect introduction to the traditional Jesus Prayer (or prayer of the heart, or prayer of silence). Not only its length, but its writing style is disarming and unintimidating.When read with Way of a Plgrim and Brother Lawrence's The Practice of the Presence of God, it can be a great introduction to Christian mysticism in general. Recommended further reading:Teresa of Avila,John of the Cross,Scupoli's The Spiritual Combat.
