An all-encompassing presence

Though I have learned much from Islam (especially Rumi) Buddhism, and from Indian Hindu teachers, I am primarily rooted in the teachings of Jesus and the deep and abiding conviction of an all-encompassing presence which we call God.

What all forms of meditation reveal, is that there is an underlying love that holds us, a love which passes all understanding. As the Psalmist says, ‘On God alone my soul in stillness waits.’

  3. This is the Christmas gift. This is the light shining in the darkness: ‘The one who is the true light, who gives light to everyone, was going to come into the world’. (John 1. 9)
    Thank you, James.
