Passing on a great tradition

There is something marginal about what we are doing in meditation. And yet at the same time there’s something very central. To pass on this great tradition we need all sorts of people, a great variety of people, many gifts, many charisms, many vocations, many types of people in organisations. But we also definitely need deep practitioners, we need people and small groups and communities, and there’ll always be a relatively small number, who plunge deep into that stream of prayer. And prayer is this experience of relationship, of communion, of oneness with that burning bush, with that experience of pure being which is God’s love. And that is the way of holiness.
