The Power of Silence

In this book, Cardinal Robert Sarah, with the collaboration of Nicolas Diat, argues that silence is essential for spiritual growth and for encountering God. Written within the context of the Carthusian monastery of La Grande Chartreux, the book addresses the necessity of silence in a world overwhelmed by technology and materialism.

It explores how silence is the doorway to the divine, allowing individuals to hear the voice of God and to understand truth, beauty, and love.

The book also discusses the role of silence in liturgical celebrations and its importance in combating evil through prayer.
