A still mind sees more clearly. "Living Contemplation" is a collection of forty one short pieces of writing that have emerged from such stillness. They reflect on the encounter of contemplative awareness with daily life in the world. In the Christian tradition, the nurturing of a still mind is called contemplative prayer. This is a book about the fruits of this ancient practice, written in a way suitable for the 21st century western mind. Composed over a period of ten years, the writings cover a wide range of topics, including prayer, inner peace, the nature of love, Christian theology, the mystery of existence, death and dying. Each piece of writing is complete in itself. The book may therefore be read in any order. But the discerning reader will detect certain recurring themes. "Living Contemplation" is a companion volume to "From the Bottom of the Pond" by the same author.
