Christian Insight Meditation
How to go deeper
May 7th and 8th 2010
We are delighted to announce that Mary Jo Meadow will be coming to Norwich in 2010
Mary Jo has been meditating for over 50 years. She has a broad understanding of the different kinds of meditation (both western and eastern) and much insight into the various practices. She is a superb teacher who presents in a clear and interesting and no nonsense way. As a Professor of Psychology as well as Religious Studies she has a great deal of understanding as well as experience of the human mind and its workings. Her latest book: 'Is Your God Good?' Is about the psychological approaches we have towards our understanding of God depending on our own life experience.
She has a clear and deep understanding of Carmelite prayer and especially John Of the Cross and Teresa of Avila.
She is seen as one of the most experienced practitioners of contemplative prayer in the world today.
About the event
Part One: Christian Insight Meditation
In this first part Mary Jo will be teaching the practice of Christian Insight Meditation. This is an awareness based method that takes us deeply into the presence of God
Part Two: Meditation - How to go Deeper
Looking at what happens when we have been meditating for some while and we hit that barrier of ‘Is this it?’.
Is there more to meditation that the practice, or must I be satisfied with just the process of doing it? Many of us reach a threshold and then wonder where to go next.
Mary Jo will be speaking about how to take the next step that will take us even deeper into our practice.
She has written the book 'Christian Insight Meditation'.
