Times of interiority

To follow this way it is necessary to build into your life, on a daily basis, morning and evening, two half-hour periods of meditation. The best times are early morning before the day’s activity and early evening, ideally after the day’s activity. The sun’s daily journey, apparently moving but really still, frames the human times of prayer. At sunrise and sunset we build upwards, on two pillars of prayer, the arch of our days. These two experiences of being that hold up the activity of the day are the times of interiority which transform the lives that obey them.
