In a world that breeds endless competition, anxiety, and conflict, it is heartening to know that there is a way of wisdom. It renews hope and leads to deeper harmony with all creation. The 'peace that the world gives' is conditional and when these conditions change conflict returns. Wisdom knows that true peace is found beyond the chaos and in the deep order and harmony of the human heart. Only such peace endures because it is of God. The first step on the journey to this peace is to begin to 'leave self behind' and discover the true Self. Meditation is the lifelong daily inner discovery of the meaning and the true nature of the peace within our own hearts.

Meditation: The Way of Faith - Laurence Freeman OSB

To live in faith is to live in love.  That is the new understanding of faith.  Fr Laurence opens us to in this profound examination of the subject.  Faith, he says, is not reducible to belief, or to orthodoxy, morality or culture, although these will be colored by their faith context.  The essence of faith is self-transcendence.  Faith is our capacity to go beyond the self-centered priorities our ego advances, and to centre in another, in God where we find unity, love.  So faith is a way of living and also a process of growth, requiring not just time but also the will.  The person of faith makes this growth process the central value in all they do and in all their relationships.  Faith therefore is an important determining factor not just for our personal and spiritual lives but also for our social life,our political life, and our civilization.

Meditation, Fr. Laurence says, makes us see the meaning of being a faithful human being.  Every time we sit down to meditate it is an act of faith.  Repeating the mantra, returning to it throughout the meditation takes us beyond self-consciousness to a place of union where the prayer of Christ is fulfilled: "May they all be one as we are one."

The Gift of Love - Laurence Freeman OSB

The Gift of Love - Laurence Freeman OSB

In these talks, Laurence Freeman OSB relates how love of self and love of neighbor both arise from our experience of the love of God. This love of God creates the sense that our very being is gift and can be fully understood in the divine gift of self that occurs in Jesus. Povery of spirit is needed to receive this manifold gift, which then empowers us to make the gift of our self to others. Meditation is entering into poverty of spirit, where we can let go of the abstract riches of thought and imagination and move into the fullness of reality.
