Oneness and the Heart of the World

In this talk, Father Keating discusses the dynamic nature of God and the paradox implicit in experiencing divine oneness. With humor and wisdom, he explores the practice of contemplative prayer, and how we might begin to approach God through being present to our senses.

Religious, But Not Spiritual? (with Father Thomas Keating)

The Catholic theologian Karl Rahner famously said "the Christian of tomorrow will be a mystic, or not a Christian at all." Few people have impacted Christianity in this regard as has Fr. Thomas Keating. A Cistercian monk from St. Benedict's Monastery in Snowmass, Colorado, Fr. Thomas has spent a lifetime in deep Christian practice, and in sharing the fruits of this contemplation with countless others.

The Spirituality of Tomorrow

Summary of the Spiritual Journey

"1.The Realization that there is a higher power,God or Other.

2.To try to become the Other.

3. The realization that there is no Other.

You and the Other are one, always have been, always will be.
You just think that you aren't."
