‘Unless you become like little children… (Mt 18:3).’ So this is a little insight into what Jesus meant and also what Thomas Aquinas meant when he said it is simple. Simple, not easy. Sometimes it is difficult, sometimes it is hard, but it is simple. This is something I think that the Christian contemplative tradition desperately, on behalf of our ailing culture and society, needs to recover and teach.
