I previously mentioned Tristram Beresford. A mystic with a daily practice of long meditation, he was also totally involved in the world and its problems, but from a still centre. He once said to me: ‘As I grow older I find I live less from outward things. The more real events are those that happen inwardly and do not register on any scale of movement.’
Thank you dear James and thank you Tristram. xx
I hope we hear from Tristram again. We heard ministry on being still at my Quaker meeting yesterday.
Centering Prayer has taught me the blessing of a finding a way to the still centre over a number of years. I would not say I have totally got there yet, but I do value its gifts highly.
Every blessing for Christmas to all who share James’s post.
God Bless him and Tristram.
