John Main OSB (1926-1982) a Benedictine monk of Earling Abbey, London, rediscovered the Christian Tradition of meditation as practiced by the early Deset monks and taught it as a spiritual discipline for people of all walks of life. The selection of talks addresses the human predicament in a time of economic crisis. In Fr John’s words “So many men and women are discovering that their spirit is stifled. Meditation is the way of making contact with our own spirit, and in contacting finding everything in our experience coming in harmony, judged and aligned on God. The stresses, the challenges, all remain, but they are powerless to defeat us. We learn in our stillness in God that in him we have all things that are necessary.”
