The Lost Tradition
-
Jesus' life and teaching were rooted in a different way of seeing reality. As a deeply mystical teacher of the West, Jesus helped awaken others to what it meant to be spiritually alive. Today, Jesus can still help us awaken to a new way of perceiving the world around us. The intent of this class is to awaken us to this wisdom, and to learn to see as the mystics see as we slow down and find God, or are found by God in all the places we never thought to look!
Class will include time for discussion of text and periodic videos, sharing of personal experiences, as well as individual practice of preferred mode of contemplative prayer (centering prayer, awareness practice, contemplative prayer, meditation, etc.) This is an open class, new members are welcome!
Recommended text: The Naked Now, Learning to See as the Mystics See by Richard Rohr.
