Thomas Keating: A Rising Tide of Silence is a reflective portrait of Father Thomas Keating, one of today's most influential spiritual leaders. Interweaving historical footage, interviews, and extensive conversations with Father Thomas, the film traces his spiritual journey from an affluent New York City childhood, to an austere Trappist monastic life, to his rise through the Order, and his election as Abbot of St. Joseph's Abby in Spencer, Massachusetts in 1961.

It's a good documentary. Keating is very honest about his shortcomings as a young monk and how he changed over time. I think that Contemplative Outreach is his gift to the world so I think it's less of an infomercial and more about what interests him. I know that within Catholic circles some people are very uncomfortable with his language but in this video he demonstrates a Catholic faith that is translated to a non-Catholic world.

An honest portrayal of a great spiritual teacher and mystic's life, work and mind.
