The Bells, The Bells, The Bells....
ReplyDeleteI am very much enjoying the meditation bells that Pewster has directed us to, and have in fact downloaded them so I can use them away from home. Having been introduced to Christian Meditation by a link in this same blog, I am finding the bells a very practical aid. Like many Americans who did not grow up in the tradition of meditation, I often have problems with focusing----the tones are a tremendous help with that. It would be wonderful if the Episcopal church could actually have a class in this; I would certainly go, and I think a lot of other people would too.
Once upon a time, (during Lent?) we studied different types of prayer. Centering prayer or is not something we do on Sundays. It certainly takes practice. It could be done as a Wednesday p.m. group in the parlor, or maybe Charlie would like to try it on the Lenten devotees. (Food always brings in the hungry.)
