​This quote is taken from Cynthia Bourgeault's book, Centering Prayer and Inner Awakening (Cowley Publications, 2004), 9. Cynthia Bourgeault is ordained as a priest in the Episcopalean Church and lives in Maine, USA. She is a renowned writer and teacher of Centering Prayer and has been a core faculty member of Richard Rohr's Centre for Action and Contemplation for many years until her retirement this summer. You can find out much more about her and her writings on her website, here. To hear her talking about the practice of Centering Prayer, which has been her own practice of silence since the mid 1980s, see the video on youtube from the Festival of Faiths a couple of years ago, here.
