Jean-Yves Leloup je dôležitou postavou súčasného medzináboženského dialógu a spirituálneho života, patrí k osobnostiam, ktoré sa usilujú napomáhať praktickým spôsobom v duchovnom rozvoji iným ľuďom. Podľa názoru tohto autora žijeme v excitovanom svete: stres nás má presvedčiť o hodnote aktivity, pričom nie je ničím iným ako brzdou nášho šťastia. Leloup v tejto publikácii ponúka liek: pozornosť. Jedine tento postoj nás môže zachrániť pred peklom nedostatku lásky, pred obchádzaním samého seba, pred zabudnutím Bytia.
Teologie srdce, tak záhadná při nacházení vlastního definování, tak nezbytná pro identitu každého křesťana, upřímně toužícího po jakostním duchovním životě.

Patologie normálnosti / Kniha sestává z úvah autorů, v centru pozornosti je pojem normotického chování, který byl vytvořen a propracován, aby upozornil na záporný jev ohrožující vývoj každé lidské bytosti, kterým je nezdravá snaha být normální, přizpůsobovat se společenským konvencím a společenskému tlaku na úkor zdravého a plnohodnotného vývoje osobnosti, vývoje vycházejícího nikoli z ideálu, nýbrž z reality.

The Gospel of Thomas, discovered in Nag Hammadi, presents a unique collection of 114 sayings attributed to Jesus, emphasizing personal revelation over narrative. Scholar Jean-Yves Leloup's translation highlights the teachings of Jesus as a path to self-knowledge and spiritual enlightenment, resonating with gnostic themes of transformation and consciousness. This work invites readers to explore their inner wisdom, suggesting that understanding these teachings can lead to a profound personal awakening, rather than merely conforming to traditional Christian beliefs.
Exploring the intersection of Buddhism and Christianity, Jean-Yves Leloup highlights the complementary nature of meditation and compassion within both traditions. Using the metaphor of mountains and oceans, he illustrates how Jesus embodies love and awakening while Buddha represents meditation and universal connection. Both faiths share common ground, addressing moral barriers to realizing our true selves. Leloup advocates for a deeper understanding and integration of these spiritual practices to foster a profound ecumenical approach to faith.
The emergence of electronic music with its new generation of artists and digital technologies has disturbed the world music landscape. From the musicians' angle, since the end of the eighties, techno, house, and their multiple subgenres, have brought in a new breath, sometimes sweeping aside the order established by rock and pop, and imposing new game rules: ephemeral and shared creations, widespread sampling, DJ rule, the practice of mix and remix, new and micro-economy. But that aesthetic revolution, which ended up contaminating most music during the nineties, is not only limited to artists. The democratization of the digital, of the means of diffusion, and of exchange and listening, transforms the relationship between the audience and music. Today the MP3 generation, beyond the simple question of piracy, invents new codes and practices which have shaken our way of "consuming" culture. Writer, DJ, and French sound artist, Jean-Yves Leloup has followed the evolution of electronic music from its first appearance in Europe at the end of the eighties. A fortunate witness to the electronic scene, he is also interested in all questions relative to contemporary art and digital technologies.
The book explores the unique stance of Christianity on sexuality, arguing that it has been dismissed as a means to enlightenment and salvation. Jean-Yves Leloup emphasizes the sacredness of the intimate connection between man and woman, suggesting it reflects humanity's divine image. He posits that this embrace can serve as a profound path to personal transformation, aligning with Christ's intentions for spiritual growth and fulfillment.
