What is Contemplation?
Contemplation teaches you to think about thinking and may be the highest form of intelligence that we have. It is a dance with the physical, psychological, and the spiritual and has a tendency to heal people and then transform them. Many equate it to prayer or meditation. You might be surprised, however, to discover that you can practice contemplation while mindfully washing dishes, singing, being with a friend, or walking in a park.
Contemplation is simply being fully present in heart, mind, and body, to what is in a way that allows you to creatively respond and work toward what could be. Contemplation is both personal and communal, internal and external. It helps us let go of our usual, self-focused way of thinking and doing things so that our compassionate, connected, and creative self can emerge. Through contemplation, we develop the capacity to witness our egoic motivations, bringing this awareness into our day-to-day actions and living with increased freedom and authenticity through deeper awareness of self, others, and God.
What is contemplation about? Well, imagine for a moment that you could be all-knowing. Where would that get you? Although we can’t be all-knowing like God is, we can benefit from knowledge and wisdom. The more we have, the more we will benefit in all areas of our lives. So let’s not underrate it! At the very least, it is a kind of self-actualization and God realization at depth.
What is the Contemplative Mind?
Contemplation is the nature of reality as you may never have experienced it before. The flood of technology and knowledge has made depression, trauma, and stress worse. It has decreased our sustainable performance in every area of life, from careers and family to even affecting the military. PTSD, trauma, stress, and personality disorders are deeper issues that modern-day life has imposed on us as a generation, and they are causing us to battle more and more to cope each year. Moving out of survival mode is how the next generation will self-regulate and thrive. If you reimagine yourself beyond the self-concept and persona you have created, you can get rid of all the things that don’t work for you anymore. Many of us have learned to live with what we don’t like: the unhealthy habits, the depressive or anxious bouts, the obsessive thinking, and terrible sleep patterns. We have almost forgotten that a large part of life is about starting again. That’s what Contemplative Intelligence (CQ) offers—the chance to reimagine your reality and create the life you really want.
Stress is not bad for us. In fact many people thrive off of stress. It is our response to stress that is what is important. If you’re metaphorically leaving your hand on a hot stove it can cost you your health, your sanity and your quality of life. The course will teach you about the bigger picture.
It will expand and then free your mind, which is just another organ in our bodies. Who am I really, is a question that must be re-examined later on in life, when we have moved out of childhood. If we do not answer this and other simple questions posed to us by life, depression, pain and other forms of suffering come to help us shift, reconnect and grow. This is the journey and the adventure that is your return to your Sacred Self.
Embracing the mysterious
Contemplation encompasses embracing the mysterious, not just the known. Contemplation is a mindset that can shift us from a survival to a thrive mind. It is thinking about thinking.
Contemplation is the highest expression of our intellectual and spiritual life. It is that life itself, fully awake, fully active, fully aware that is alive. It can help us heal, grow and enrich our lives pretty much like yoga, a good online course, a book or a profound life-experience can.
Thomas Merton, a famous Monk who used the Power of The Power of Contemplative Intelligence (CQ) Page 80 Contemplation a lot said “It is gratitude for life, for awareness and for being. It is a vivid realization of the fact that life and being in us proceed from an invisible, transcendent and infinitely abundant source”.
