Description

The art of prayer

This book is the fruit of years of practice and exploration in the School for the Art of Prayer at the Shakio Institute. It offers a fundamentally new understanding of the meaning of prayer as a unique opportunity to open to the inner depths of our lives.

The Art of Prayer is a regenerative learning approach exploring a core component of human existence – our natural capacity for prayer. It is a framework of practices in which people from all walks of life – religious and secular, those who have an existing prayer practice and those who do not – are invited to discover fresh gateways into the Art of Prayer.

This book profoundly addresses fundamental questions, such as:

• What is prayer consciousness?
• What process does the act of prayer enable?
• What is the relationship between body, consciousness and language?
• How can prayer be a model for life?
