Beschreibung

Heartfulness: Transformation in Christ condenses the accumulated wisdom of Fr. Thomas Keating's many years of teaching and practice into nine essential areas for study, reflection, and spiritual growth for our time.

The interviewer, Betty Sue Flowers, draws out of Fr. Thomas the importance of silence and contemplative practice as a means of opening the mind and heart and one's whole being to God, or the Ultimate Reality.

Captured over a two-day period and in nine hours of interview sessions, Fr. Thomas guides the listener toward an understanding of the contemplative dimension of the Gospel and its extraordinary implications and applications for personal freedom and global peace. He explains that the inherent human quest for happiness is itself the greatest proof of God's existence.

Über den Autor

Father Thomas Keating was a Trappist monk, priest, and one of the principal architects of the Centering Prayer movement, which revitalized the Christian contemplative tradition for contemporary seekers. Born in New York City in 1923, Keating pursued studies at Yale University and Fordham University before entering the Cistercian Order in 1944. He was ordained a priest in [...] the 1970s, while serving as abbot of St. Joseph's Abbey in Spencer, Massachusetts, Keating, alongside fellow monks Fathers William Meninger and Basil Pennington, developed Centering Prayer-a method inspired by the 14th-century spiritual classic *The Cloud of Unknowing*. This practice emphasizes silent, wordless prayer as a means of consenting to God's presence and action [...] support and disseminate this contemplative practice, Keating co-founded Contemplative Outreach in 1984, an international organization dedicated to teaching Centering Prayer and fostering spiritual growth. His commitment to interfaith dialogue led him to engage with spiritual leaders across traditions, promoting a universal message of inner transformation and unity.A prolific author, Keating's works include Open Mind, Open Heart, Invitation to Love, and The Human Condition, among others. His teachings continue to guide individuals seeking a deeper relationship with the Divine through the path of contemplative silence. Father Thomas Keating passed away on October 25, 2018, at the age of 95, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire spiritual practitioners worldwide.
