Practical Mysticism

Dear Folks -

 

During the talk I gave in Ordinary Life this week I passed out a handout of Richard Rohr's notion of the "Cosmic Egg." You can download that handout from the link below.  Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we captured an audio version of the talk.

 

The title of the talk I gave is "Practical Mysticism." It is based on the wisdom teaching: "don't let your left hand know what your right hand is doing." It is, in my opinion, very similar to the Zen saying "what is the sound of one hand clapping?"

 

Mysticism, among other things, provides us with deeper ways of knowing and seeing which give us room to be more loving and freer.

 

The full text I spoke from can be downloaded below.  

 

Much love,

 

Bill Kerley
