“You must be silent. Then God will be born in you” (Johannes Tauler).  In contemplative prayer, we divest our minds of all thoughts and images in order to receive the pure and simple light of God directly into the summit of our souls. This retreat involves breath practice. It is for those who have begun the practice of non-conceptual prayer. Please bring loose fitting clothing of neutral colors.
