An open-ended way

It isn’t by violence that we make the breakthrough, it’s by faith. It’s faith that moves mountains, and the exercise of consciousness in the practice of meditation is an act of faith. It is faith, that is the breakthrough. Remember St Paul speaking about the gospel as a way of salvation, a way of healing, a way of flourishing, a way of coming to the fullness of life that begins in faith and ends in faith. So it’s open-ended.
