Meditation, or ‘pure prayer’ as the Desert Teachers called it, takes us beyond thought and so ultimately beyond the ego. It prepares us for the next step, which is the result of grace, not just our effort: the final step from ourselves into the Mind of Christ which plunges us into God. John Cassian, a Desert Father and teacher of this prayer, shows how it is interrelated to all the other kinds of prayer. You do not have to give up any other useful spiritual practice when you make meditation an integral part of your life. But be prepared for change anywhere when the time comes.
