The Psychological Experience of Centering Prayer - Part 1, with Thomas Keating
Fr. Thomas Keating describes the psychological experience of the Christian spiritual journey using a two-dimensional diagram of human development. He then relates this model to the four moments of Centering Prayer and describes the purifying and healing process carried on by the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes that as we consent to God’s presence and action, this “divine therapy” gradually transforms our faculties over a lifetime, which is an invitation to be welcomed, although requiring courage and persistence.
This is one video in a series of 31 hour-long talks by Thomas Keating that make up his foundational video teachings, “The Spiritual Journey with Fr. Thomas Keating.” All of these talks are now available on YouTube, and are listed below with links. Fr. Thomas was an internationally renowned theologian, speaker and author of dozens of books including “Open Mind, Open Heart.”
Fr. Thomas co-founded Contemplative Outreach, which offers this series and supports Centering Prayer. Along with Fr. William Meninger and Fr. Basil Pennington, Fr. Thomas began the Centering Prayer movement in the 1970’s to renew the Christian tradition of contemplation. An overview of Contemplative Outreach is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Jhng2P51h4&t=2s.
