The Contemplative Mind

Friday 11th and Saturday 12th January 2008

Richard Rohr OFM

Richard is a Franciscan priest and a prolific writer.

He is internationally renowned as a conference leader and speaker on  
themes such as peace and justice, ecospirituality, community building  
and male spirituality. He is currently the Founding Director of the  
Centre for Action and Contemplation in New Mexico.

Non-dual Consciousness

Richard will be speaking on how the retrieval of the older Christian  
tradition of contemplation is helping us understand this as a path to  
non-dual consciousness – a way of knowing that is not something we do  
as much as something we become. He will be helping us uncover the  
immense implications of this for our world, our politics, and the  
renewal of Christian life. The workshop will include lecture,  
spiritual exercises and guided quiet times. The two day programme  
will be preceded by a public talk on Thursday evening.

   		
Also Coming to Norwich:

Cynthia Bourgeault is an Episcopal priest and a teacher and writer on  
the spiritual life who has worked with contemplative masters such as  
Fr Thomas Keating. She will be leading an Intensive in Norwich in May  
2008.
