The Human Condition

Event Description

Mondays for 6 weeks January 30, February 6, 13, 20, 27 and March 6 7:00 - 8:30 pm CST Cost $25   This class reveals the obstacles that keep us from peace, identifying our programs for happiness that-can-never-work, while helping us with the unloading of the unconscious.   In our Spiritual Journey classes the sessions consist of videos followed by a facilitated discussion. The videos feature Thomas Keating, the founder of Contemplative Outreach and original teacher of Centering Prayer. Beginners and seasoned Pray-ers alike follow Keating through the concepts and ideas that he taught in this foundational series.  Father Thomas’ often humorous and always thoughtful delivery reveals by example his own self-evolution, as he brings in, not only his theology, but also his knowledge of psychology, and his insight into the overlap between ancient traditions of the world.   *This class features the instruction of the practice of the Welcoming Prayer, a tool for bringing us into the "now" in the presence of the Holy Spirit during the disturbances of everyday life. We will be joining the Welcoming Prayer workshop for weeks 4 and 5 which start earlier, at 6:30 pm, CST. The cost of the workshop is included in the price of the class.
