The Four Virtues: Presence, Heart, Wisdom, Creation

Autor Tobin Hart Ph.D.
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 feb 2014
Most of us are hungry for a life of meaning, connection, and fulfilment, but in the midst of today's demands and pressures, a deeper life doesn't come automatically. We must increasingly focus on certain virtues-four universal principles needed to foster wholeness and meaningful purpose in humanity.

Drawing from decades of research across the wisdom traditions, neuroscience, psychology, poetry, physics, religion, the arts, and literature, The Four Virtues provides a field guide for developing your deepest self. The Spiritual Assessment Matrix of targeted quizzes shows you where you are in relation to the virtues of Presence, Heart, Wisdom, and Creation, and expert practices and tools help you "activate" them in your life. In addition, internationally respected author, professor, and psychologist Tobin Hart speaks directly to anyone-whether religious or secular-looking to live by a contemporary set of ethics to frame their self-development and happiness.

Highly accessible, thought provoking, and interactive, The Four Virtuesprovides a ground-breaking way to engage and flourish in life.

"This remarkable book is a treasured gift for teachers, therapists, counselors and all those who wish to grow the soul."
"This is a gem of a book. Drawing on his own rich life experiences, neuroscience, and ancient wisdom traditions, Tobin Hart explores how we can cultivate capacities that allow us to be deeply connected to ourselves, to each other, and to the world."
"There is a new awakening to the potential of spiritual growth and the flowering of human society that it can bring. In this beautifully written book, Tobin Hart illuminates that path, skillfully applying his scholarship, experience, and insights to provide a vivid roadmap for the spiritual seeker.”
“A work of wide learning and deep reflection, The Four Virtues eloquently teaches what is most important to learn: the art of living a meaningful life.”
“In this remarkable book, Tobin Hart applies ancient wisdom to the information age. Not only has he given his readers a psycho-spiritual matrix for internal growth but has also provided a road-map for finding their way through an external world of increasing complexity. At the very least, The Four Virtues is a fascinating document; at the very most it will change the lives of many those who read it and practice its exercises.”
“With this book, Tobin Hart is doing something audacious: offering us a guide to our deepest, most meaningful life while, in his writing, embodying the virtues he identifies as key....This is a book to be savored. I’ll be reading sections of it over and over.”
"This is a very creative, helpful, and joyful book whose warmth and presence reflects unique and valuable insights into the human condition. Highly recommended!”
“This miraculous book by Tobin Hart is a doorway into exploring one’s inner life. This book provides the reader with a welcome roadmap for discovering what may be just below the surface but is often obscured by the busyness of our everyday existence. By traveling the path of The Four Virtues and using the practical strategies provided, Dr. Hart opens up a world for the reader to explore avenues for personal growth and transformation.”
“If you want to get rich, here’s the one book to buy. Not the richness that comes from making a lot of money, but the richness of spirit that comes from living a full life. Hart exquisitely and movingly details what living well really means, the virtues involved, and the path to get there. It is a far-sighted book for our near-sighted times.”
“Tobin Hart thoughtfully and accessibly engages the psychological and spiritual nuances of world wisdom to discern the essential elements and practices for a meaningful life well lived. What makes this book even more important is the author, a man of true gentleness and deep insight.”
“Tobin Hart’s book is a gentle and inclusive field guide to inner life that draws on a range of traditions to provide us with a thoughtful engagement of practices and personal disciplines for nurturing the spirit. It is a guide to ways to live more fully.”
The Four Virtues is a beautiful meditation on life's inner journey. Weaving around the themes of presence, heart, wisdom, and creation, the book helps us explore our deeper human potential and appreciate what it means to be truly human. The gentleness of the tone, the appreciation of life's beauty, and the clarity of self-awareness that permeate the entire book make the reading a truly inspiring experience.”
“With his contemporary culture references and conversational tone, Tobin Hart provides an accessible, secular roadmap that synthesizes age old wisdom traditions. Like Tobin himself, this book is destined to help many people better understand the world from the inside out.”
