SILENT Contemplative Prayer Retreat (Father Thomas Leitner, OSB)


“You travel far and wide afield, think you must roam the earth. Dive deep instead within yourself to find your real worth” (Angelus Silesius). 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.
Friday, 7:30 p.m. to Sunday after Lunch
