Whoever did the voice of Merton didn't do his homework. Merton sounded nothing like this. Whoever this is, he sounds more like Neale Donald Walsh or even (God forbid) Rod McKuen.

@xander7ful
I think those were his best years, his best writings come from the mid 60's on. ...just my opinion. :-)

@PilgrimToChrist Yes, he did go off the deep end for a while near the end of his life. He would spend the day in his little house singing and dancing around, typing nonsense poetry, and reading on various religions. But then he got it together, took some trips outside the monastery, and (he said) was going to try to reform monastic life there.

he reminded me of Blessed Charles De Faoucauld who also did the same in the monastery of st. Clare! Although for Charles it is also his search for poverty...

In this video Thomas Merton has expressed the art of solitude in a very vivid experiencial way, something that calls or invites each one to make the very same journey and reap its spiritual rewards. In the noise and complexities of our times, solitude is still a very relevant spiritual discipline. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us here in the internet.

What do you mean he went off the deep end? What did he do at the end of his life?

i'm not sure i would call it going off the deep end. What he brought back changed the Catholic Church. Now the Catholic Church has a a very large space for tolerance believe it or not. Especially towards other religions i.e. Budhism.
