Centering Prayer: A Training Course For Opening To The Presence Of God

With Centering Prayer, Father Thomas Keating presents the first complete home study course in a silent prayer practice for consenting to the presence and action of the Divine Indwelling. Based in the Christian tradition and on teachings from the 14th-century text The Cloud of Unknowing, John of the Cross, Thomas Merton and others, Centering Prayer is a powerful method that has sparked the modern renewal of contemplative Christianity. With more than nine hours of guidance and teachings on CD and DVD, practitioners join this world-renowned teacher to discover a level of prayer beyond asking for aid or offering praise-one that can lead to an intimate, graceful communion with God.
