Description of Talk:
In her first teaching from her soon-to-be published book, “Thomas Keating: The Making of a Modern Christian Mystic,” Cynthia will guide us through Thomas’s evolving concept of God, illuminating Keating’s remarkable spiritual development in the final stages of his spiritual journey. Cynthia will be sharing from her perspective as a disciple of Keating's teachings as well as her personal experiences and close study of his late works. Topics in her talk will include:
- Keating’s increasing engagement with non-dual spiritual practice
- His contributions to interspiritual dialogue
- The evolution of his early teaching on the movement from “false self” to “true self,” to that from “true self” to “no self”
- His final “dark night of the spirit” and passage through death
- New evidence that he never left Christianity but carried it with him to new places
This talk will inspire your own spiritual journey as a modern mystic, at home and at peace in the universe.
