Apophatic Meditation

Name: Apophatic Meditation
Uploaded: 2021-03-19T00:59:20.000Z
Duration: 11 min 25 s
Channel: Methods of Contemplation
Description: The apophatic tradition is rooted in the idea that there are ways that God is simply not knowable. We may know the "energeia" of God, but not God's essence, at least not with our conceptual mind. All the qualities that the Divine display go beyond the words we use and the thoughts we can think. Use this simple meditation to let go of your conceptual framework for Source.
