Between Two Souls: Conversations with Ryokan, by Pax Christi USA Teacher of Peace Sr. Mary Lou Kownacki, osb – ONLY 30 COPIES AVAILABLE!

Spirituality and Health said, “On the wonder-filled pages of this exquisite work, this sister models the kind of mysticism that can unite one person with another despite the barriers of time, place, religion, gender, and culture. Kownacki opens our hearts with her ability to identify with Ryokan and his sensitivities.” Click here to order.
