A PEARL OF GREAT PRICE
Laurence Freeman, OSB
Again the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for
fine pearls; when he finds one of great value he goes and
sells everything he owns and buys it.     (Matthew 13:45)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
    Week 1
    The theme is: What is Meditation?

    Explain how meditation is a universal practice also found in our Christian
    tradition. It is a discipline not just a technique. There are no difficult theories or
    techniques to master. Emphasize the stillness of the body and the importance of
    the twice-daily practice. Prepare them for the encounter with the monkey-mind.
    Remind them that meditation is the prayer of the heart so all thoughts, including
    holy ones, are to be left aside. Play one of John Main’s talks from his ‘In the
    Beginning’ series.

    Recommend  book:  Laurence Freeman’s book, Christian Meditation: Your Daily
    Practice.

    Suggested New Testament Reading: Matthew 6: 5-6
