The function of fatih

Thomas Merton | July-August 2017 (Vol. XXX, No. 7)

The function of faith is not to reduce mystery to rational clarity, but to integrate the unknown and the known together in a living whole, in which we are more and more able to transcend the limitations of our external self.
