Light Within by Laurence Freeman

Light Within by Laurence Freeman

The Benedictine monk and writer, Laurence Freeman, took over the mantle of John Main after his death in 1982 and continues the work that he began, teaching Christians from all traditions the simplest way of prayer - meditation. It is simple in that it requires no words, yet encountering God without the safety barrier of our own thoughts and ideas is to open ourselves to total transformation. This collection of talks on Christian meditation is full of practical advice and great spiritual insights in equal measure. It shows how discovering the presence of Christ within through meditative prayer can give shape and purpose to everything we do and are: our actions, emotions, fears, longings, failings and dreams. As John Main taught, the point of this kind of prayer is to allow God's presence to become not just a reality, but the reality of our lives.

Laurence Freeman osb is a Benedictine monk, based at the Monastery of Christ the King, Cockfosters, London. He is a regular contributor to the Tablet and is Director of the World Community for Christian Meditation which operates in 114 countries and has over 100,000 members.
