Meditation, mindfulness, and programmes for conscious leadership are widely seen as antidotes to problems of our time and their benefits are understood to be accessible independently of religious belief or devotion. For contemplative practitioners in a secular age, the question then what is the meaning and point of faith, and of religious identity? Why not just meditate, leaving behind the weight of dogma and tradition that seem to have lost their relevance? This book explores the significance of a contemplative Christianity and offers a renewing vision of the connections between contemplation and faith, and the gifts of this path for a world in travail.
A lovely little book with some insightful ideas and metaphors. I enjoyed it and feel inspired to not only continue my Contemplative journey, but also empowered to share it more than I do currently.
