Be Still and Know Chant | 3-Minute Meditation with Cynthia Bourgeault

About this sermon

Join Center for Action and Contemplation faculty emeritus Cynthia Bourgeault for a chanting practice that invites our bodies to take prayer deep into the heart. Chanting is a physical act of prayer that uses the vocal cords to unite the mind, body, heart, and spirit. Return to this practice whenever you yearn to connect to the Divine Presence that permeates the present moment. Chanting has really been foundational to all the great spiritual traditions, not just Christianity, but also Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam. When we actually bring our voice, our tone, and our breath to something, we engage with it in a whole different way. It goes down into the heart, processes by a whole different track, engages different resonances of our being, and leads to different understandings. —Cynthia Bourgeault Learn more about this year's theme: https://tinyurl.com/2nmxytum Richard Rohr’s Daily Meditations are free email reflections sent every day of the year.
