Silence In Practice "We do not want to be beginners. But let us be convinced of the fact that we will never be anything but beginners, all our life!" Thomas Merton The Conversation Music Spiegel im Spiegel (Click on link to listen) Sources When you become quiet, it can be helpful to set your phone for the period you are going to be still. There are also handy apps available, like this one from Contemplative Outreach. It has been specifically developed for Centering Prayer, but can also be used for other periods of being still. Peace be with you. George and Matilda
The Restory is a Retreat Centre nestled against Tafelkop, a singular mountain head near Wakkerstroom, South Africa. Here we live a simple life as contemplatives. It is a place of re-connection: with ourselves, people, Nature, Silence and Creativity. Our retreats are aimed at this. Our conversations, writing and art centre around the univocity of life. We need a place that reminds us that we are all one. The Restory hopes to be such a place and space.
