Summary

"The Cloud of Unknowing" is one of Christianity's enduring mysteries, a meditative state where God is experienced on the deepest interior level. To move beyond thoughts and feelings and into the arms of the divine spirit, we have been given the gift of contemplative prayer.

In Contemplative Prayer, Father Thomas Keating introduces you to this method for inviting the grace of God into your life, to discover the treasure of holiness always present in ordinary events. Join Father Keating as he teaches a complete workshop on this system of Christian meditation, as it has been practiced in the cloisters and monasteries of Europe since medieval times. Contemplative prayer, like a freshening wind, is an uplifting event that can help take you to the starting point of the true spiritual journey.

a new beginning for those on a search

An apparently practical method of contemplation which can lead to that which we are all yearning for...whether we know it or not . There is astonishing richness and coherence in Fr. Keating 's talk which seems to flow effortlessly, thus giving testamony to his authenticity .

Excellent guidelines for contemplative prayer

Clear and easy to listen to and follow. I would recommend highly to beginners and those looking for a concise refresher.
