Description
John Main OSB's Fully Alive is a collection of talks that explore the transformative power of prayer. In these simple and inviting reflections, he shares his insights into the practice of contemplative prayer, drawing on his experiences as a monk in India.
Main's approach to prayer was radical for its time, introducing the concept of silence before God into Western Christian tradition. His open monastic community, where laypeople came to learn meditative prayer, continues to inspire new generations through the World Community for Christian Meditation and other emerging groups.
This book offers a glimpse into Main's teachings on the power of stillness and silence in deepening one's relationship with God. It is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their spiritual practice and discover the transformative power of prayer.
