Singing Heart. A Book of Quiet Contemplation

About his book «Singing Heart. A Book of Quiet Contemplation» (1947) the great Russian thinker, lawyer and political scientist, journalist and literary critic Ivan Alexandrovich Ilyin wrote: «It is dedicated not to theology, but to quiet philosophical praise of God…... I am trying to weave the fabric of a new philosophy, thoroughly Christian in spirit and style, but completely free from pseudo-philosophical «theologizing» like that of Berdyaev-Bulgakov-Karsavin and other dilettantish heresiarchs... This is a simple, quiet philosophy... born from the main organ of Orthodox Christianity – the contemplative heart». «There is only one true «happiness» on earth – the singing of the human heart. If it sings, then a person has almost everything; almost, because he still has to take care that his heart does not become disappointed in the beloved object and does not fall silent…» A book for a wide range of readers.
