This is a book that leaves you feeling so uplifted. It makes you want to do something more in life.It is so beautifully written, and O'Donohue has some of his own poems in there. One is called the Blessing of Presence it's just lovely to read. One passage will stay with me, it goes as follows."If you have everything the world has to offer you, but you do not have love, then you are the poorest of the poorest of the poor.How true. This is a remarkable book. It was so sad to learn of O'Donohue's sudden death in jan of this year aged 52, he died in his sleep.

John O'Donohue's death earlier this year was a sad, sad loss. Heard him at Greenbelt in 2007 and he was simply awesome. If you've not read any of his books, then I would not advise you starting with this one. Start with Anam Cara, which in my view is his masterpiece. This book of blessings will make much more sense after you've read Anam Cara and perhaps one of his other books first, like Eternal Echoes. If you have read one of his earlier books then this book will be a treasured resource for you to dip in and out of. John O'Donohue is a wordsmith of the highest order and his turn of phrase is delightful. He covers themes such as Beginnings, Desires, Thresholds, Homecomings, States of ... Read More:

3.Eternal Echoes: Exploring Our Hunger to Belong by: John O'Donohue November 02, 2000

I drew quite a lot of inspiration from Anam Cara, and so when this book appeared I was both excited and cynical. Excited, because the atmophere of O'Donohue's prose is very accomodating; cynical, because I asked what else could be said: what Anam Cara showed was that entering into a twilit solicitude with the soul was enough. Was this the beginning of a loss of atmophere, the start of a long franchise career in authoring spiritual texts in which the silent candlelit vigil of the soul became covered up all over again? Thankfully, my excitement was answered and my cynicism fell away as I entered this book. Nothing is lost, in fact, (ironically, even, in terms of my suspicion) the book deals with loss, the "gain" of hunger, the tension ... Read More:

This is the first book by John O'Donohue that I am reading. I am still not finished but it has touched my soul already!. John has the capacity to transform my eyes and my mind to look at the world around me in such a way that I can see the stunning beauty that is designed into our world which is only waiting to be appreciated and I believe now that the more you are touched by the beauty the more enhanced it gets!!! His book makes me feel that the universe has a way of looking at itself in self admiration and I think John O'Donohue is some kind of a mirror reflecting that in his book. READ IT!!! I am sure I will be reading it many times over and so will you.

I'm not sure if the above commentators are aware, but the author died in January 2008. Hence Benedictus (and it's US equivalent) must be his last book.
