If you want to be free, if you want to heal your relationship with God, with others and yourself, enter your inner room-the office, where the Divine Therapy takes place. Close the door so you don’t run away. Quiet your interior dialogue so that you can listen to what the Spirit is saying to you. An enormous Intelligence is guiding us through this process with a love that is unconditional and determined to bring about this healing, whatever the cost to Itself. Gregory the Great expressed it as “resting in God". Don’t judge centering prayer on the basis of how many thoughts come or how much peace you enjoy. The deeper one's awareness of one's powerlessness and the more desperate, the more willing one is to reach out for help. This help is offered in the next two steps. You turn yourself over to a Higher Power who you believe can heal you and work with you in the long journey of dismantling the emotional programs for happiness. They are the root causes of all our problems How should we handle these afflictive emotions? By facing them, by feeling them. Feelings that have been repressed have to be allowed to pass through our awareness once again in order to be left behind for good. The radical healing is the acceptance of the situation, because in some way God is present there. The real work of prayer is just to get rid of the very assumption that was the foundation of all these other modes of prayer. It is a matter of shifting the location of the sense of identity. The false self is deeply entrenched. We have to accept the idea that the word "I" does not have a fixed and clear and obvious referent. This is where the transformation that we undergo becomes more and more radical with each breakthrough or illumination. The contemplative journey, because it involves the purification of the unconscious, is not a magic carpet to bliss. It is an exercise of letting go of the false self, a humbling process, because it is the only self we know. Nothing is more helpful to reduce pride than the actual experience of self-knowledge. If we are discouraged by it, we have misunderstood its meaning. God has not promised to take away our trials, but to help us to change our attitudes toward them. That is what holiness really is. In this life, happiness is rooted in our basic attitude toward reality. For human beings, the most daunting challenge is to become fully human. For to become fully human, is to become fully divine. The Spirit calls us to transformation of our inmost being, and indeed of all our faculties, into the divine way of being and acting. Divine love picks us up when we sincerely believe nobody else will. We then begin to experience freedom, peace, calm, equanimity, and liberation from cravings A total surrender of ourselves to the spiritual journey is required When the presence of God emerges from our inmost being into our faculties, whether we walk down the street or drink a cup of soup, divine life is pouring into the world. God will bring people and events into our lives, and whatever we may think about them, they are designed for the evolution of this Divine life in us. Gifts of the Holy Spirit grow in direct proportion to the depth and sincerity of our love. To live in the presence of God on a continuous basis can become a kind of fourth dimension to our three-dimensional world, forming an invisible but real background to everything that we do or that happens in our lives. Silence is God's first language; everything else is a poor translation. Whatever we say about God is more unlike God than saying nothing. If we do say something, it can only be a pointer toward the Mystery that can never be articulated in words. All that words can do is point in the direction of the Mystery. Let Love Alone speak. ~ Father Thomas Keating
I’m 81 and have been doing recovery work for 50 years now. This beautiful prayer touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes. It has been said it’s the journey, not the destination. One day at a time we journey thru this life and learn the lessons as we go. Always working to stay close to the source. It helps so much by prayers like these and reading all the wonderful comments.😇
Wow you started at 31, what a long trail. I'm loving just imagining. I have been on the road to recovery and discovery for 8 years. I'm 28. I love you.
My Life has been transformed through the attempt to be faithful to contemplative prayer. I turn 92 in August of this year. May all who listen to this recording be truly blessed and healed. With joy and gratitude.
They all don't say the same thing. They are different. That is why they all have different books and methods. Similar but never the same. Similar sounding but points to a completely different direction.
Overwhelmed with gratitude for this beautiful recording. I am 62 and have been on my spiritual journey since about 40. Each step of purification is so very painful, but takes me away from my small self and brings me closer and closer to my true Self. Of late, I have been shocked to discover that at my core, I am full of jealousy. It is so very shameful that I feel I can tell nobody about it. It is the single most humbling experience of my life as outwardly, everybody around me would say what a ‘nice’ person I was. They have no idea of the venom I feel inside. It has been unbearable, but this wonderful prayer/meditation with its ancient message of hope and transformation, has soothed my troubled mind. Thank you 🙏 Prayers, blessings and encouragement to all who choose to travel this difficult path ❤
Thank you for your open, honest and beautiful sharing. Your clear insights reveal true transformation through humility and wisdom. May the wisdom teachings continue to shine a light for you, revealing your true, pure nature as it is. 🌻💗
When I first started following you, dear One, there were around 50,000 followers…in these months of listening and resting in this space with you, the sheep keep coming to rest in the shade. So many of us are “being surrendered” through every ripple of aliveness that arises within… I send you my gratitude and I thank you for making a place for such a nurturing surrender within ❤
I've just discovered this beautiful meditation, and am giving thanks to the late Fr Thomas Keating for his Centering Prayer teachings, which brought me into the spiritual path 4 years ago. His idea of Divine Therapy has helped me to discover my true Self, learn to love myself again, ditch guilt and negativity - and above all, to TRUST! Thank you!
Recently been diagnosed with MS. My research into meditation has brought me to centering prayer. I wanted an alternative to meditation to help calm my heart, mind and body each day. Including centering prayer, medication, exercise, diet and supplements I believe I can either beat this disease or at least hold it at bay. Calming myself is the first step in all this.
I believe you will beat this disease. Get tested for Lyme by a Lyme-literate physician. It may come back negative because the tests aren’t great, but I have Lyme, and have done a LOT of research, and Lyme is usually at the bottom of ms. 🙏🩷
MS is not something to fight and eliminate. It's there to help you in change. Speak gently, ask gently, and listen patiently. Don't make war. Make peace. 🙏
Resting in God. Such exquisiteness this centering prayer. Please know you bring such peace through the universe with your teachings. With deep love.😘😘😘
This clip really cracked my heart ! Endless gratitude for the beautiful teachings of Father Thomas Keating, and the unique, devine voice of our beloved Samaneri Jayasara ❤️💖💛💗🙏🙏🙏
I heard her for the first time reading Saint Catherine’s works- in a best of kind of thing- not a catholic in practice but baptised. I digress- her voice is just velvet. So smooth. I am not a crier but I was moved to the point I scared my dog and found myself feeling much better on the rug introns of the fire at 1 am about a month ago..: I said I wouldn’t listen again to myself. Kinda powerful u know? Here it is in my feed today... she picks just the right writings to read... 🏴🌈🧡
For some reason, I listened to this immediately & can already feel its transformative power. Thank you for such thoughtfulness ~ and your uncanny timing, Sister. From the heart ❤
Deep gratitude for this and all of your uploads, Samaneri. ❤ Your measured, calming voice is rooted in spirit and facilitates deep healing. Of all days, I really needed this teaching/pointer. I'm 65 years old with probably 35 years of so-called personal growth behind me. The journey has been a long one and with so many powerful references points/experiences of transformation, I am still trying to break a lifelong need for other-validation. Liquidating the LACK has been the greatest challenge. The Obstacle is the Way! I have much less of that need to prove my worth now, yet one stubborn program has been the hardest to break: the seemingly unstoppable "do-do." It's so strange- this inability to stop and Be Here Now. I understand how important it is and I can quote many great lines from poems and philosophers that point to the necessity for contemplative prayer if one wants to experience peace. So here I am once again sitting quietly by Cup & Saucer Creek working to assimilate the pointers. 🙏🏽
Thank you for your comments, I completely identify with your words. The obstacle(thorn in one's side) is the way. It is at times quite painful yet I sit each morning for 20 minutes in silence, trusting despite the discomfort and doubts.
Yes! I agree totally...knowing Thomas in his books and videos is the greatest Gift in my life! "divine Life is pouring into the world! I highly recommend his "legacy"...THE SPIRITUAL JOURNEY!
The sages point to reality regardless of tradition and the pointing to THAT is rendered palpable in these beautiful offerings read with such a soothing and calm voice of Samaneri 🙏
Keating, Merton, Nouwen, Rohr, all great Catholic writers and mystics, (can't remember if Nouwen would be considered a mystic),that really introduced me to the Eastern philosophies back in my early twenties. It's beautiful that it's just one thing, one view, one meditation, love it
Hahaha it's like one hand clapping ❤ One has just to be oneself. That's my basic message. The moment you accept yourself as you are. All burdens on mountainous burdens simply disappear. Then life is a sheer joy, a Festival of Lights. God bless us all❤😇🙏🌹
Thank You jayasara for making these recordings available to the world as a way to self knowledge and for so many, PEACE. Your kindness and compassion are much appreciated. *hoping for another father Keating recording. 🕊️❤️
“Through this goodness may awakening spontaneously arise in our streams of being. May all obscurations and distortions fall away. May all beings be liberated from suffering, and the stormy waves of birth, sickness, old age, and death. By this merit may all attain omniscience. May it defeat the enemy, wrong-doing. From the stormy waves of birth, old age, sickness, and death, from the ocean of samsara, may Jayasara free all beings.” ❤🙏
So exquisite it just took me to my depths. I feel more gratitude every day for your Divine offerings that bring such peace and joy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤❤❤
Love and believe in centering prayer. First I did it was with the Dominican sisters many years ago. Thomas Merton took up this prayer again God bless him and Fr Thomas Keating. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’ve been here listening to you a long time Jayasara but I haven’t left word of my gratitude in quite as long. I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your beautiful offerings, they mean so much to me 🙏🏼💖
Voice sounds like hearing the mother of Jesus mary m i love it i am so grateful to her ❤ she is devine in us i totally agree thank you beautiful ❤ 17:48
Father Thomas Keating came to Conscience Harmony in Austin Texas multiple times to speak. He glowed when he spoke. When he laughed his aura eas bright light and gold. Blessings. 💛🤍💜
You speak so beautifully and provided the centering and uplift that I needed to keep me focussed on what was required right now. I have been going through many rituals over the past 4-5 months, with the focus on transformation, death and rebirth. I feel a big sense of sacrifice coming upon me, and hence the sadness and grief and melancholy comes from letting that which has been with me, perhaps all my life, but has served its purpose, and is not needed anymore. So, "Who am I now?" "Who am I without my suffering?" This video came along to assist me on this path of sacrificing that which is not needed for me to truly follow the path to Magnificence and Divinity. Thank you.
This meditation is a profound gift to me and I’m guessing to many who have the time and presence of mind to really hear. Deep gratitude for these beautiful, inspiring recitations! ❤️🙏🏼🕊
Recently diagnosed with MS and what I have found are other people who suffer from it do meditation but I want something different and upholds my faith. Centering Prayer seems to be the answer.
Fell asleep to this last night as I have often done in over two years to your offerings everything you bring is everything everyone has already said…..thank you lovely Samaneri Jayasara…🙏🏼🌻
Father Keating was an early inspiration for me, one of many messengers of truth in my heart. Glad to see his words of truth here. Now let me get back to silence.
Thank you. I am a devoted student of Fr. Thomas’ centering prayer practice. I belong to Contemplative Outreach, the organization he founded. However, I am inclined towards the teachers, like Lillian DeWaters (of whom I learned here on this channel) and the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta , which claim that we are already divine perfection, and we simply have to realize it, rather than “transform” into it or toward it. But I also must admit I have been transforming bit by bit in the spiritual practices- especially centering prayer and service to others. I am grateful for this.
A Daily Examen is so important to developing a heart with a discerning vision that is a gift from God. One must make the journey to the inner closet by the path through the storms, strongholds, demons, and monsters that we have invited in. To the place of Eden. Where one finds themself embraced by God’s Love. And learn to discern the voice of God who speaks in ways that are different from our own.
If you want to be free, if you want to heal your relationship with God, with others and yourself, enter your inner room-the office, where the Divine Therapy takes place. Close the door so you don’t run away. Quiet your interior dialogue so that you can listen to what the Spirit is saying to you.
