The Seven Storey Mountain

Thomas Merton

The Seven Storey Mountain tells of the growing restlessness of a brilliant and passionate young man, who at the age of twenty-six, takes vows in one of the most demanding Catholic orders—the Trappist monks. At the Abbey of Gethsemani, "the four walls of my new freedom," Thomas Merton struggles to withdraw from the world, but only after he has fully immersed himself in it. At the abbey, he wrote this extraordinary testament, a unique spiritual autobiography that has been recognized as one of the most influential religious works of our time. Translated into more than twenty languages, it has touched millions of lives.

I just had this guy on Peter levenda and he wrote a book called Stairway to Heaven, which is a book about Celestial Ascent Traditions across history. The merkabah the, you know, the ziggurat, the Heckler, the you know, all these things, contained, Seven Levels... I think of seven as sort of, you know, something Celestial right then then four is the ascent or conversion into matter or something. And then seven is like the, you know, the reassessed into the celestial and so maybe there's something around falling angels or Fallen Celestial beings. You know, the fall of Man or something. That seems really important with that, that first number.
