I think the word for meditation means becoming familiar with yourself, and I think many people speak about meditation as a feeling of coming home.
How does a Catholic priest find common ground with Buddhist meditation? In this thought-provoking episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment', Scott Snibbe sits down with Father Laurence Freeman, a Benedictine monk, to discuss the intriguing blend of meditation, science, and Christianity. Father Laurence shares his unique perspective on how meditation and contemplation have enriched his spiritual journey and dialogues with the Dalai Lama.
He talks about the vital role of community in meditation and how it fosters a sense of belonging and self-discovery. His insights into the intersection of science and spirituality offer a fresh look at how these seemingly disparate fields can coexist harmoniously. The conversation also touches on the importance of wonder, respect, and prayer in our daily lives, and how technology impacts our humanity.
Father Laurence beautifully articulates that meditation is like 'coming home', helping us understand our place in the world. This episode is perfect for anyone curious about integrating different spiritual practices or seeking deeper self-awareness through meditation.
