Contemplate This! Interview with Cynthia Bourgeault

Welcome to the second episode of “Contemplate This: Conversations on Contemplation and Compassion.” This interview is with Cynthia Bourgeault, an ordained Episcopalian priest, and beloved teacher of contemplative forms of Christian practice, Founder of the Wisdom Way of Knowing, teacher in the Wisdom School, and now a core teacher at the Center for Action and Contemplation. She brings a very unique blend of experiences – her time with Quakers and Benedictines, her study of Gurdjieff, and then her eventual familiarity with the growth of Centering Prayer in the last 4 decades – to offer some original and thought-provoking insights into contemplative practice.

So beautiful. I think I could listen to this conversation a thousand times and still hear something new. I feel like I'm just at the edge of something so profound. Maybe that's just the experience of life. That thin veil between us and God. Thanks for sharing, Thomas.

Raw, real, beautiful thank you 🙏

Plenty to work with. Thankyou both
