Illustrated with drawings by Sidney Paget as they originally appeared in The Strand magazine of London. "An unlikely yet utterly engaging new take on the world's greatest detective: Sherlock Holmes as spiritual guide and master, whose Zen-like techniques of awareness and observation provide religious insight for the modern, skeptical searcher. Inspired by Holmes's comment to Dr. Watson ("You see but you do not observe"), Stephen Kendrick examines the stories of Arthur Conan Doyle to uncover the religious and metaphysical lessons they offer. Reading detective fiction as religious parable, Kendrick shows that the methods of investigation used in solving crime - particularly that of careful observation, what Buddhism calls "Bare Attention" - are the same methods that yield religious insight when applied to the world and the human heart. A spiritual seeker is a detective of the sacred, and so the lessons of detection - that nothing is insignificant, that you must notice what you see, that the bizarre is not necessarily the mysterious, that you should never presume anything - are also instuctions in how to become attuned to the mystery of life and of God. Wide ranging and eclectic in approach, Holy Clues draws upon both Eastern and Western religious tradition in addressing the issues of justice and mercy, good and evil, guilt and innocence, that lie at the heart of all mystery stories. A lively and original guide to reading and to living, it is a perceptive and entertaining look at a cultural icon, at the most profound issues of life and death, and at what each has to teach about the other." - from the inner front jacket flap. "In this ingenious and fascinating view of the Supreme Mystery, Kendrick not only shows us the great mind of Sherlock Holmes at work but wonderfully demonstrates how beneath the steely facade there also beats a great heart. I cannot overpraise the charm and wisdom of this book." - Frederick Buechner, author. "Kendrick breaks Holmes's most important code. If you want to grow spiritually and have fun at the same time, curl up and enjoy this gentle tour de force." - Forrest Church, author.
