«Biografía del silencio» is Pablo d'Ors's essay on meditation, published by Siruela in paperback (116 pages, in Spanish).
Drawing on his own practice, Pablo d'Ors recounts his experience with meditation and describes how sustained silence gradually cracks the personality until it forces a transformation he compares to dying and being reborn. Meditating is not escaping but returning home, learning to live with one's own being and discovering that the self and the world are not separate realities.
Biografía del silencio belongs to Siruela's Biblioteca de Ensayo / Serie menor collection (volume 54) and is part of Pablo d'Ors's Trilogía del silencio.
An essay aimed at readers interested in meditation, spirituality and self-knowledge, whether they already meditate or are seeking a first introduction.
