Fully Alive: An Introduction to Christian Meditation
Fully Alive is a previously unpublished book by John Main, a Benedictine monk who was one of the twentieth century's most influential spiritual teachers. Main, who died in 1982, helped popularize the practice of contemplative prayer--a tradition that had been lost since the era of Desert Fathers. During his lifetime, hundreds of groups gathered at his monastery ot learn mediation from him. Fully Alive is drawn from these talks, delivered to help people enter the experience of silence. John Main's teaching is striking for the depth and richness of its simplicity. The lessons gathered here offer a practical prayer companion for every stage of the contemplative pilgrimage.
