Recently Discovered Fr Thomas Keating

What a joy!

He is a Trappist Monk, but I would call him a Mystic Monk. :)

He developed what he calls "Centering Prayer". From what I have gathered, so far, this is a contemplative type of prayer, where you place your focus on one sacred word. Kind of reminds me of the Hari Krishna chants, only no chanting, just focusing with your mind.

I used to do a lot of meditation, when I was younger. Haven't tried it in some time. I think I might try this, when I get some time to myself.

Also, want to find out more about this marvelous man!
