SUMMARY:3-Day Contemplative Retreat
DESCRIPTION:“CONTEMPLATION is the highest expression of a person’s intellectual and spiritual life. It is that life itself\, fully awake\, fully active\, fully aware that it is alive. It is spiritual wonder. It is spontaneous awe at the sacredness of life\, of being. It is gratitude for life\, for awareness and for being.”\n-Thomas Merton \nThe retreat aims to nurture the soul’s thirst for deepening the contemplative journey\, as a path to transformation. \nThis 3-day experience in silence experience includes short daily input sessions to deepen the Centering Prayer method and foster growth in the contemplative path; various periods of Centering Prayer each day; opportunity for spiritual companionship and journaling; and personal time to enjoy the silence inside the monastery and in its surrounding nature. \nIf you have any further question about the retreat\, please do not hesitate to contact through email. It is helpful to have attended a weekend Centering Prayer retreat or the one-day introductory workshop on Centering Prayer. \nPlease register by October 10th\, 2024

SUMMARY:CENTERING  PRAYER  WEEKEND  RETREAT: Evolutionary Cosmology and Centering Prayer
DESCRIPTION:Presenters: Rev. Canon Julian Bull\, Headmaster of Campbell Hall Episcopal School and Katie DesJardins Bull\, MSW\, Facilitator of many contemplative practices \n“The dynamic idea of God that evolutionary cosmology has provided … is a revelation of a higher power in which we are immersed and engulfed\, and can never be separated from\, because we really have no identity except what has emerged in the evolutionary process. Creation … is always happening\, and in a sense\, the being of God is always becoming.”\n– Thomas Keating\, Reflections on the Unknowable \nAll of the great religions and prophets speak to the notion that in order to live in evolutionary times\, we must go within. Evolutionary spirituality invites each of us to use our contemplative practices as a way to go within and connect with God. Modern science reveals nature’s continued evolution to higher and more complex levels of consciousness. Using the Centering Prayer framework of Fr. Thomas Keating\, and the work of Fr. Bernard Lonergan\, we will relate the scientific notion of “emergent probability” to “falling in love with God.” This retreat will alternate Centering Prayer practice with a science-informed discussion of how we may live in this expanding nature and consciousness of God that the evolutionary process reveals. \nWe will be in silence for meals\, breaks\, and prayer time. Periods of Centering Prayer will be included in our time together. There will be discussion following each presentation. Soul-friending will also be available. \nPre-requisite: An established practice of Centering Prayer and a desire to grow in your contemplative practice.\nFee: $350 – all rooms are private ($50 non-refundable deposit required)\n$250 commuters \nFor more information\, please contact Marilyn Nobori at centeringprayer@hsrcenter.com or 818-815-4480.\nRegister online at www.hsrcenter.com by October 18th with a non-refundable deposit of $50.\n(Silhouette Photography by Greg Rakozy\, Unsplash)
