|  | | Product Description |  | In the darkest hour of the darkest age, Christian monks developed a meditation tradition unique in the Western world. A 14th-century author described their profound mystical experience as enteringthe cloud of unknowing. Yet during the 500 years after this great monastic flowering, this precious tradition – and the direct path to union with God it described – was virtually lost.
For decades Father Thomas Keating, together with other monks, examined this great question: could anyone enter the cloud of unknowing through a prayer practice specifically created to attain it? Keating reached back in time for clues about the prayer forms of the Christian mystics. He synthesized his work into a Centering Prayer method that has helped thousands of seekers travel the contemplative path to divine union. From infancy, Father Keating teaches, we accumulate emotional layers,orprograms, as a result of traumatic experiences. The practice of Centering Prayer engages directly with the unconscious and loosens old traumas that hinder your spiritual development. This form of divine therapy draws from a contemplative method that has brought profound inner transformation into the lives of thousands of practitioners. The Contemplative Journey is Father Thomas Keating's great masterwork: a complete curriculum devoted to a Christian path for achieving the still point of resting in God. Each volume includes a study guide.
